abstract

Three subjects are considered here: a self-dual non-critical string that appears in Type IIB superstring theory at points in ${\rm K3}$ moduli space where the Type IIA theory has extended gauge symmetry; a conformal field theory singularity at such points which may signal quantum effects that persist even at weak coupling; and the rich dynamics of the real world under compactification, which may be relevant to some attempts to explain the vanishing of the cosmological constant.

  1. Hypergroup Symmetry in Relative Quantum Field Theories and Chiral Algebras

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Framework for hypergroup symmetries in relative QFTs establishes one-to-one correspondence between finite symmetries and finite-index conformal embeddings in rational chiral algebras, with implications for gluing left...

  2. Cobordism Utopia: U-Dualities, Bordisms, and the Swampland

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    For 8d maximal supergravity, the spin bordism groups Omega_k^Spin(B(SL(2,Z) x SL(3,Z))) for k=1..7 are computed and each generator is realized by a string/M/F-theory background, some of which are non-geometric.

  3. Black Hole Entropy, Quantum Corrections and EFT Transitions

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Quantum corrections to BPS black hole entropy in 4d N=2 string compactifications can be resummed into a finite formula that interpolates between four- and five-dimensional EFT descriptions and matches exact 5d microst...

  4. Light dilaton from top-down holographic confinement with magnetic fluxes

    hep-th 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In a two-flux family of top-down holographic confining theories, the lightest scalar is an approximate dilaton with mass about one tenth of the lightest spin-2 confinement scale, over a wide, untuned region of paramet...

  5. Gravitational Background of Alice-Vortices and R7-Branes

    hep-th 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A family of asymptotic Alice-vortex/R7-brane backgrounds in axio-dilaton gravity is constructed, with the vortex tension encoded in a conical deficit and a generic intrinsic dipole moment.

  6. Atomic Higgsings of 6D SCFTs II: Induced Flows

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For 6d SCFTs, atomic endpoint-changing Higgsings (induced flows) are identified with induced nilpotent orbits, and an analogous induction of discrete E8 homomorphisms is physically defined for orbi-instanton theories.

  7. Surface Defects in $A$-type Little String Theories

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The authors give a combinatorial partition function for A-type little string theories with a full-type surface defect and argue that two NS-limit regularizations are both regular due to a recursive pole-cancellation identity.

  8. Heterotic Strings on Enriques Surfaces

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Classifies shift vectors for heterotic orbifolds on Enriques surfaces, analyzes spectra, and interprets some models as non-supersymmetric 10D heterotic compactifications with tachyon projection.

  9. A Crash Course in Supersymmetric Field Theory Across Dimensions

    hep-th 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 2.0 of 10

    Pedagogical crash-course notes on supersymmetric field theory across 2–10 dimensions, organized around recurring structures such as holomorphy, dualities, indices, BPS data, and anomalies.
