Four-dimensional string compactifications with D-branes, orientifolds and fluxes

R Blumenhagen, B Körs, D Lüst, S Stieberger - Physics reports, 2007 - Elsevier
This review article provides a pedagogical introduction into various classes of chiral string
compactifications to four dimensions with D-branes and fluxes. The main concern is to …

Cobordism conjecture, anomalies, and the string lamppost principle

M Montero, C Vafa - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
A bstract We consider consequences of triviality of cobordism classes and anomaly
cancellation in supergravity theories in d> 6. We argue that this leads to the existence of …

Entanglement negativity in quantum field theory

P Calabrese, J Cardy, E Tonni - Physical review letters, 2012 - APS
We develop a systematic method to extract the negativity in the ground state of a 1+ 1
dimensional relativistic quantum field theory, using a path integral formalism to construct the …

TASI lectures on D-branes

J Polchinski - arxiv preprint hep-th/9611050, 1996 - arxiv.org
This is an introduction to the properties of D-branes, topological defects in string theory on
which string endpoints can live. D-branes provide a simple description of various …

F-theory and Orientifolds

A Sen - Nuclear Physics B, 1996 - Elsevier
By analyzing F-theory on K3 near the orbifold limit of K3 we establish the equivalence
between F-theory on K3 and an orientifold of type IIB on T2, which in turn is related by a T …

Entanglement negativity in extended systems: A field theoretical approach

P Calabrese, J Cardy, E Tonni - Journal of Statistical Mechanics …, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
We report on a systematic approach for the calculation of the negativity in the ground state of
a one-dimensional quantum field theory. The partial transpose ${\rho} _ {A}^{{T} _ {2}} $ of …

Noncompact symmetries in string theory

J Maharana, JH Schwarz - Nuclear Physics B, 1993 - Elsevier
Noncompact groups, similar to those that appeared in various supergravity theories in the
1970's, have been turning up in recent studies of string theory. First it was discovered that …

Open strings

C Angelantonj, A Sagnotti - Physics reports, 2002 - Elsevier
This review is devoted to open strings, and in particular to the often surprising features of
their spectra. It follows and summarizes developments that took place mainly at the …

Open strings on AdS2 branes

P Lee, H Ooguri, J Park, J Tannenhauser - Nuclear Physics B, 2001 - Elsevier
We study the spectrum of open strings on AdS2 branes in AdS3 in an NS–NS background,
using the SL (2, R) WZW model. When the brane carries no fundamental string charge, the …
