Five-Brane Effective Action In M-Theory
read the original abstract
On the world-volume of an $M$-theory five-brane propagates a two-form with self-dual field strength. As this field is non-Lagrangian, there is no obvious framework for determining its partition function. An analogous problem exists in Type IIB superstring theory for the self-dual five-form. The resolution of these problems and definition of the partition function is explained. A more complete analysis of perturbative anomaly cancellation for $M$-theory five-branes is also presented, uncovering some surprising details.

Towards the Non-Perturbative Completion of 4d N=1 Effective Theories of Gravity
Small-volume regimes of flop curves in 4d N=1 F-theory require non-perturbative states—blow-up moduli and D3-string excitations—to complete the locally enhanced N=2 spectrum.

Non-abelian asymmetric orbifolds with vanishing one-loop vacuum energy
A classification finds 17 four-dimensional Type II asymmetric orbifolds with non-abelian point groups and pointwise vanishing one-loop vacuum energy, each also realizable as a Scherk-Schwarz compactification.

Uniqueness of D=8 minimal supergravity with two vector multiplets
Under a duality symmetry assumption, minimal supergravity coupled to two vector multiplets in D=8 is uniquely fixed in the BPS sector by anomaly cancellation, uplifts, and gauge enhancement.

Continuous symmetries and charge measurement of boundary operators in holography
Continuous symmetry operators in holography are U-shaped hanging brane bound states (D5-KK in Type IIB, M5-KK in M-theory) whose worldvolume couplings reproduce the Gauss-law symmetry operators and measure charges of ...

Supersymmetric zeta functions and determinants
Residues and special values of supersymmetric zeta functions (built from single-particle indices) are conjectured to reproduce anomaly coefficients, Casimir energies, and central charges across 2d/4d/6d.

Anomaly-induced vanishing of brane partition functions
Anomalies imply vanishing brane partition functions; this yields unified derivations of the Freed-Witten and M5 shifted-quantization conditions and new S-fold D3-brane constraints.
