On quantum Poisson-Lie T-duality of WZNW models by Yuho Sakatani, Yuji Satoh

“…Abstract We study Poisson-Lie T-duality of the Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) models which are obtained from a class of Drinfel’d doubles and its generalization. …”

Giant gravitons, Harish-Chandra integrals, and BPS states in symplectic and orthogonal N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM by Adolfo Holguin, Shannon Wang

“…We also comment on some connections to Schubert calculus and Gromov-Witten invariants, which suggest that the Harish-Chandra integral may be extended to such problems.…”

Celestial Yang-Mills amplitudes and D = 4 conformal blocks by Wei Fan, Angelos Fotopoulos, Stephan Stieberger, Tomasz R. Taylor, Bin Zhu

“…The current factor is given by the group-dependent part of the Wess-Zumino-Witten correlator of four holomorphic currents with a non-vanishing level of Kač-Moody algebra. …”

Engineering small flux superpotentials and mass hierarchies by Brice Bastian, Thomas W. Grimm, Damian van de Heisteeg

“…These insights allow us to obtain new vacua near boundaries in complex structure moduli space that include Seiberg-Witten points. In these examples we find that the scale of the vacuum superpotential can be bounded from below through the exponential of the negative D3-brane tadpole.…”

Global symmetry-breaking and generalized theta-terms in Type IIB EFTs by Thomas W. Grimm, Stefano Lanza, Thomas van Vuren

“…However, we illustrate that the presence of generalized θ-terms leads to a generalized Witten effect, which implies that the spectrum of charged states is constituted by an infinitely populated lattice. …”

Erfahrungen aus Entwicklung und Einsatz eines interdisziplinären Blended-Learning-Wahlpflichtfachs an zwei tiermedizinischen Hochschulen by Michael Koch, Martin R. Fischer, Marc Vandevelde, Andrea Tipold, Jan P. Ehlers

“…Hiermit konnte gezeigt werden, dass eine Zusammenarbeit mehrerer Universitäten und verschiedener Disziplinen möglich ist, um Kurse zu erstellen und durchzuführen, und dass die Akzeptanz dieser Kurse bei den Studierenden hoch ist. 24.06.2010 | Michael Koch (Hannover), Martin R. Fischer (Witten-Herdecke), Marc Vandevelde (Bern), Andrea Tipold (Hannover) & Jan P. …”

Tube algebras, excitations statistics and compactification in gauge models of topological phases by Alex Bullivant, Clement Delcamp

“…Abstract We consider lattice Hamiltonian realizations of (d+1)-dimensional Dijkgraaf- Witten theory. In (2+1) d, it is well-known that the Hamiltonian yields point-like excita- tions classified by irreducible representations of the twisted quantum double. …”

Generalized entropy for general subregions in quantum gravity by Kristan Jensen, Jonathan Sorce, Antony J. Speranza

Cobordism and bubbles of anything in the string landscape by Bjoern Friedrich, Arthur Hebecker, Johannes Walcher

“…We develop the 4d EFT description of such boundaries at three levels: first, by generalizing the Witten bubble through an additional defect. Second, by replacing the compact S 1 with a Calabi-Yau orientifold and allowing it to shrink and disappear through a postulated defect. …”

Yang-Baxter deformations of the $$GL(2,{\mathbb {R}})$$ G L ( 2 , R ) WZW model and non-Abelian T-duality by Ali Eghbali, Tayebe Parvizi, Adel Rezaei-Aghdam

“…Abstract By calculating inequivalent classical r-matrices for the $$gl(2,{\mathbb {R}})$$ g l ( 2 , R ) Lie algebra as solutions of (modified) classical Yang-Baxter equation ((m)CYBE), we classify the YB deformations of Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) model on the $$GL(2,{\mathbb {R}})$$ G L ( 2 , R ) Lie group in twelve inequivalent families. …”

Anomalies and persistent order in the chiral Gross-Neveu model by Riccardo Ciccone, Lorenzo Di Pietro, Marco Serone

Exact out-of-equilibrium central spin dynamics from integrability by Davide Fioretto, Jean-Sébastien Caux, Vladimir Gritsev
