Light-Cone Description of (2,0) Superconformal Theories in Six Dimensions
TL;DR: In this article, the (2,0) superconformal theories in six dimensions, which arise from the low-energy limit of k coincident 5-branes, using their discrete light-cone formulation as a superformal quantum mechanical sigma model, are studied.

A D = 4 N = 1 orbifold of type I strings
Micha Berkooz,Robert G. Leigh +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the propagation of type I open superstrings on orbifolds with four non-compact dimensions and N = 1 supersymmetry was considered, and it was shown that consistency conditions, arising from tadpole cancellation and algebraic sources, require the existence of three sets of Dirichlet 5-branes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modular Cosmology
TL;DR: It is shown that string theory has two generic types of domain walls which could be the seeds for inflation, and it is argued that modular physics provides a very robust model of inflation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Higher Dimensional Generalizations of the SYK Model
TL;DR: In this article, a 1+1 dimensional generalization of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model is discussed, which contains N Majorana fermions at each lattice site with a nearest-neighbour hopping term.
Journal ArticleDOI
Five-branes in M(atrix) Theory
Micha Berkooz,Michael R. Douglas +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a construction of five-branes which fill both light-cone dimensions in Banks, Fischler, Shenker and Susskind's matrix model of M theory and proved Dirac charge quantization with the membrane.
