Journal Article

Policy-makers need to be confident that decisions based on the outputs of energy system models will be robust in the real-world. To make robust decisions it is critical that the consequences of uncertainty in model outputs are assessed. This paper pr...

A combinatorial identity for the speed of growth in an anisotropic KPZ model (2017)
Journal Article
Chhita, S., & Ferrari, P. L. (2017). A combinatorial identity for the speed of growth in an anisotropic KPZ model. Annales de l’Institut Henri Poincaré D, 4(4), 453-477. https://doi.org/10.4171/aihpd/45

The speed of growth for a particular stochastic growth model introduced by Borodin and Ferrari in [5], which belongs to the KPZ anisotropic universality class, was computed using multi-time correlations. The model was recently generalized by Toninell... Read More about A combinatorial identity for the speed of growth in an anisotropic KPZ model.

Representation dependence of k -strings in pure Yang-Mills theory via supersymmetry (2017)
Journal Article
Anber, M. M., & Pellizzani, V. (2017). Representation dependence of k -strings in pure Yang-Mills theory via supersymmetry. Physical Review D, 96(11), Article 114015. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.96.114015

We exploit a conjectured continuity between super Yang-Mills on R 3 × S 1 and pure Yang-Mills to study k -strings in the latter theory. As expected, we find that Wilson-loop correlation functions depend on the N-ality of a representation R to the lea...

Crossing symmetry in alpha space (2017)
Journal Article
Hogervorst, M., & van Rees, B. C. (2017). Crossing symmetry in alpha space. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017(11), Article 193. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep11%282017%29193

We initiate the study of the conformal bootstrap using Sturm-Liouville theory, specializing to four-point functions in one-dimensional CFTs. We do so by decomposing conformal correlators using a basis of eigenfunctions of the Casimir which are labele... Read More about Crossing symmetry in alpha space.

8d gauge anomalies and the topological Green-Schwarz mechanism (2017)
Journal Article
García-Etxebarria, I., Hayashi, H., Ohmori, K., Tachikawa, Y., & Yonekura, K. (2017). 8d gauge anomalies and the topological Green-Schwarz mechanism. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017(11), Article 177. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep11%282017%29177

String theory provides us with 8d supersymmetric gauge theory with gauge algebras su(N), so(2N), sp(N), e6, e7 and e8, but no construction for so(2N+1), f4 and g2 is known. In this paper, we show that the theories for f4 and so(2N+1) have a global ga... Read More about 8d gauge anomalies and the topological Green-Schwarz mechanism.

Entanglement shadows in LLM geometries (2017)
Journal Article

We find a new example of an asymptotically AdS5 × S5 geometry which has an entanglement shadow: that is, a region of spacetime which no Ryu-Takayanagi minimal surface enters. Our example is a particular case of the supersymmetric LLM geometries. Our... Read More about Entanglement shadows in LLM geometries.

The S-matrix Bootstrap II: Two Dimensional Amplitudes (2017)
Journal Article

We consider constraints on the S-matrix of any gapped, Lorentz invariant quantum field theory in 1 + 1 dimensions due to crossing symmetry and unitarity. In this way we establish rigorous bounds on the cubic couplings of a given theory with a fixed m... Read More about The S-matrix Bootstrap II: Two Dimensional Amplitudes.

Twisted Blanchfield pairings and decompositions of 3-manifolds (2017)
Journal Article

We prove a decomposition formula for twisted Blanchfield pairings of 3-manifolds. As an application we show that the twisted Blanchfield pairing of a 3-manifold obtained from a 3-manifold Y with a representation ϕ:Z[π1(Y)]→R, infected by a knot J alo...

The S-matrix bootstrap. Part I: QFT in AdS (2017)
Journal Article

We propose a strategy to study massive Quantum Field Theory (QFT) using conformal bootstrap methods. The idea is to consider QFT in hyperbolic space and study correlation functions of its boundary operators. We show that these are solutions of the cr... Read More about The S-matrix bootstrap.

Global Orientifolded Quivers with Inflation (2017)
Journal Article

We describe global embeddings of fractional D3 branes at orientifolded singularities in type IIB flux compactifications. We present an explicit Calabi-Yau example where the chiral visible sector lives on a local orientifolded quiver while non-perturb... Read More about Global Orientifolded Quivers with Inflation.
