Logarithmic corrections to the FRW brane cosmology from 5d Schwarzschild-deSitter black hole

TL;DR: In this paper, logarithmic terms (which play the role of effective cosmological constant) change the behavior of 4D spherical brane in dS, SdS or Nariai bulk.

Finite size properties of staggered $U_q[sl(2|1)]$ superspin chains

TL;DR: In this paper, the exact solution of the eigenvalue problem for the U q [ sl ( 2 | 1 ) ] vertex model built from alternating three-dimensional fundamental and dual representations by means of the algebraic Bethe ansatz was investigated, and the ground state and low energy excitations of the corresponding mixed superspin chain for deformation parameter q = exp ( − i γ / 2 ).

Two-dimensional black holes as open strings: a new realization of the ADS/CFT correspondence

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that weak-coupled two-dimensional dilaton gravity on anti-de Sitter space can be described by the dynamics of an open string.

Generalized (2+1) dimensional black hole by Noether symmetry

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Noether symmetry approach to find f(R) theory of (2 + 1) dimensional gravity and (2+1) dimensional black hole solution consistent with this gravity and the associated symmetry.

The Heterotic String

TL;DR: A new type of superstring theory is constructed as a chiral combination of the closed D=26 bosonic and D=10 fermionic strings, which is supersymmetric, Lorentz invariant, and free of tachyons.

Finite size scaling analysis of Ising model block distribution functions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the distribution function P L ( s ) of the local order parameters in finite blocks of linear dimension L for Ising lattices of dimension d = 2,3 and 4.

Conformal invariance, the central charge, and universal finite-size amplitudes at criticality.

TL;DR: It is shown that for conformally invariant two-dimensional systems, the amplitude of the finite-size corrections to the free energy of an infinitely long strip of width L at criticality is linearly related to the conformal anomaly number c, for various boundary conditions.
