In this limit the BPS partition function of M5 branes localizes on configurations with a large number of strings which leads to a reformulation of the partition function in terms of a matrix model. We solve this matrix model and obtain its spectral curve which can be interpreted as the Seiberg-Witten curve associated to the compactified M5 brane theory. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.07873 , 74kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.07878 Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2016 20:00:29 GMT (15kb) Title: Operator Mixing in Large $N$ Superconformal Field Theories on $\mathbb{S}^4$ and Correlators with Wilson loops Authors: Diego Rodriguez-Gomez and Jorge G. Russo Categories: hep-th Comments: 15 pages, no figures \\ We find a general formula for the operator mixing on the $\mathbb{S}^4$ of chiral primary operators (CPO) for the ${\cal N}=4$ theory at large $N$ in terms of Chebyshev polynomials. As an application, we compute the correlator of a CPO and a Wilson loop, reproducing an earlier result by Giombi and Pestun obtained from a two-matrix model proposal. Finally, we discuss a simple method to obtain correlators in general ${\cal N}=2$ superconformal field theories in perturbation theory in terms of correlators of the ${\cal N}=4$ theory. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.07878 , 15kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.07885 Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2016 20:09:14 GMT (118kb,D) Title: The Black Hole S-Matrix from Quantum Mechanics Authors: Panagiotis Betzios, Nava Gaddam, Olga Papadoulaki Categories: hep-th Comments: 31 pages \\ We revisit the old black hole S-Matrix construction and its new partial wave expansion of 't Hooft. Inspired by old ideas from non-critical string theory \& $c=1$ Matrix Quantum Mechanics, we reformulate the scattering in terms of a quantum mechanical model\textemdash of waves scattering off inverted harmonic oscillator potentials\textemdash that exactly reproduces the unitary black hole S-Matrix for all spherical harmonics; each partial wave corresponds to an inverted harmonic oscillator with ground state energy that is shifted relative to the s-wave oscillator. Identifying a connection to 2d string theory allows us to show that there is an exponential degeneracy in how a given total initial energy may be distributed among many partial waves of the 4d black hole. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.07885 , 118kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.07899 Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2016 20:57:03 GMT (17kb) Title: Scale vs Conformal invariance from Entanglement Entropy Authors: Ali Naseh Categories: hep-th Comments: 6 pages, no figures \\ For a generic conformal field theory (CFT) in four dimensions, the scale anomaly dictates that the universal part of entanglement entropy across a sphere ($\mathcal{C}_{\text{univ}}(S^{2})$) is positive. Based on this fact, we explore the consequences of assuming positive sign for $\mathcal{C}_{\text{univ}}(S^{2})$ in a four dimensional scale invariant theory (SFT). In absence of a dimension two scalar operator $\mathcal{O}_{2}$ in the spectrum of a SFT, we show that this assumption suggests that SFT is a CFT. In presence of $\mathcal{O}_{2}$, we show that this assumption can fix the coefficient of the nonlinear coupling term $\int\hspace{-.5mm} d^{4}x\sqrt{g} R\mathcal{O}_{2}$ to a conformal value. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.07899 , 17kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.07900 Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2016 21:03:25 GMT (119kb) Title: Casimir Self-Entropy of an Electromagnetic Thin Sheet Authors: Yang Li, K. A. Milton, Pushpa Kalauni, and Prachi Parashar Categories: hep-th \\ Casimir entropies due to quantum fluctuations in the interaction between electrical bodies can often be negative, either caused by dissipation or by geometry. Although generally such entropies vanish at zero temperature, consistent with the third law of thermodynamics (the Nernst heat theorem), there is a region in the space of temperature and separation between the bodies where negative entropy occurs, while positive interaction entropies arise for large distances or temperatures. Systematic studies on this phenomenon in the Casimir-Polder interaction between a polarizable nanoparticle or atom and a conducting plate in the dipole approximation have been given recently. Since the total entropy should be positive according to the second law of thermodynamics, we expect that the self-entropy of the bodies would be sufficiently positive as to overwhelm the negative interaction entropy. This expectation, however, has not been explicitly verified. Here we compute the self-entropy of an electromagnetic $\delta$-function plate, which corresponds to a perfectly conducting sheet in the strong coupling limit. The transverse electric contribution to the self-entropy is negative, while the transverse magnetic contribution is larger and positive, so the total self-entropy is positive. However, this self-entropy vanishes in the strong-coupling limit. In that case, it is the self-entropy of the nanoparticle that is just sufficient to result in a nonnegative total entropy. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.07900 , 119kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.07912 Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2016 23:01:05 GMT (23kb) Title: Aspects of the refined Gribov-Zwanziger action in linear covariant gauges Authors: M. A. L. Capri, D. Fiorentini, A. D. Pereira, R. F. Sobreiro, S. P. Sorella, R. C. Terin Categories: hep-th Comments: 26 pages, no figures \\ We prove the renormalizability to all orders of a refined Gribov-Zwanziger type action in linear covariant gauges in four-dimensional Euclidean space. In this model, the Gribov copies are taken into account by requiring that the Faddeev-Popov operator is positive definite with respect to the transverse component of the gauge field, a procedure which turns out to be analogous to the restriction to the Gribov region in the Landau gauge. The model studied here can be regarded as the first approximation of a more general nonperturbative BRST invariant formulation of the refined Gribov-Zwanziger action in linear covariant gauges obtained recently in [Phys. Rev. D 92, no. 4, 045039 (2015) and arXiv:1605.02610 [hep-th]]. A key ingredient of the set up worked out in [Phys. Rev. D 92, no. 4, 045039 (2015) and arXiv:1605.02610 [hep-th]] is the introduction of a gauge invariant field configuration $\mathbf{A}_{\mu}$ which can be expressed as an infinite non-local series in the starting gauge field $A_\mu$. In the present case, we consider the approximation in which only the first term of the series representing $\mathbf{A}_{\mu}$ is considered, corresponding to a pure transverse gauge field. The all order renormalizability of the resulting action gives thus a strong evidence of the renormalizability of the aforementioned more general nonperturbative BRST invariant formulation of the Gribov horizon in linear covariant gauges. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.07912 , 23kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.08094 Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 14:02:29 GMT (12kb,D) Title: On the gauge dependence of the AdS instability problem Authors: Fotios V. Dimitrakopoulos, Ben Freivogel, Juan F. Pedraza and I-Sheng Yang Categories: hep-th gr-qc Comments: 11 pages \\ Previous work on the AdS instability problem within the two-time framework (TTF) has found an "oscillating singularity" whose presence depends on the gauge choice. We give a physical interpretation of this singularity as a diverging redshift between the boundary and the center of AdS. This signals a genuine breakdown of the linearized gravity. One can also identify the diverging redshift through a back-reaction calculation purely in the boundary gauge, where the TTF result stays regular. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.08094 , 12kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.08107 Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 14:21:30 GMT (14kb) Title: $\infty-\infty$: vacuum energy and virtual black-holes Authors: Andrea Addazi Categories: hep-th gr-qc \\ We discuss other contributions to the vacuum energy of quantum field theories and quantum gravity, which have not been considered in literature. As is well known, the presence of virtual particles in vacuum provides the so famous and puzzling contributions to the vacuum energy. As is well known, these mainly come from loop integrations over the four-momenta space. However, we argue that these also imply the presence of a mass density of virtual particles in every volume cell of space-time. The most important contribution comes from quantum gravity $S^{2}\times S^{2}$ bubbles, corresponding to virtual black hole pairs. The presence of virtual masses could lead to another paradox: the space-time itself would have an intrinsic virtual mass density contribution leading to a disastrous contraction - as is known, no negative masses exist in general relativity. We dub this effect {\it the cosmological problem of second type}: if not other counter-terms existed, the vacuum energy would be inevitably destabilized by virtual-mass contributions. It would be conceivable that the cosmological problem of second type could solve the first one. Virtual masses renormalize the vacuum energy to an unpredicted parameter, as in the renormalization procedure of the Standard Model charges. In the limit of $M_{Pl}\rightarrow \infty$ (Pauli-Villars limit), virtual black holes have a mass density providing an infinite counter-term to the vacuum energy divergent contribution $M_{Pl} \rightarrow \infty$ (assuming $M_{UV}=M_{Pl}$). Therefore, in the same Schwinger-Feynman-Tomonaga attitude, the problem of a divergent vacuum energy could be analogous to the {\it put-by-hand} procedure used for Standard Model parameters. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.08107 , 14kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.08143 Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 15:21:29 GMT (485kb,D) Title: Hamiltonian approach to QCD in Coulomb gauge: Gribov's confinement scenario at work Authors: H.

Reinhardt at "5th International Conference on New Frontiers in Physics", 6-14 July 2016, Kolymbari, Greece \\ I will review essential features of the Hamiltonian approach to QCD in Coulomb gauge showing that Gribov's confinement scenario is realized in this gauge. For this purpose I will discuss in detail the emergence of the horizon condition and the Coulomb string tension. I will show that both are induced by center vortex gauge field configurations, which establish the connection between Gribov's confinement scenario and the center vortex picture of confinement. I will then extend the Hamiltonian approach to QCD in Coulomb gauge to finite temperatures, first by the usual grand canonical ensemble and second by the compactification of a spatial dimension. I will present results for the pressure, energy density and interaction measure as well as for the Polyakov loop. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.08143 , 485kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.08171 Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 16:28:08 GMT (142kb) Title: Holographic Model of Dual Superconductor for Quark Confinement Authors: Tsung-Sheng Huang and Wen-Yu Wen Categories: hep-th cond-mat.supr-con Comments: 12 pages, 7 figures Report-no: CYCU-HEP-16-07 \\ We show that a hairy black hole solution can provide a holographically dual description of quark confinement. There exists a one-parameter sensible metric which receives the backreaction of matter contents in the holographic action, where the scalar and gauge field are responsible for the condensation of chromomagnetic monopoles. This model features a preconfining phase triggered by second-order monopole condensation and a first-order confinement/deconfinement phase transition. To confirm the confinement, the quark-antiquark potential is calculated by probing a QCD string in both phases. At last, contribution from Kaluza-Klein monopoles in the confining phase is discussed. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.08171 , 142kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.08219 Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 19:10:52 GMT (16kb) Title: Building Cosmological Frozen Stars Authors: David Kastor and Jennie Traschen Categories: hep-th gr-qc Comments: 17 pages Report-no: ACFI-T16-18 \\ Janis-Newman-Winicour (JNW) spacetimes generalize the Schwarzschild solution to include a massless scalar field. Although suffering from naked singularities, they share the `frozen star' features of Schwarzschild black holes. Cosmological versions of the JNW spacetimes were discovered some time ago by Husain, Martinez and Nunez and by Fonarev. Unlike Schwarzschild-deSitter black holes, these solutions are dynamical, and the scarcity of exact solutions for dynamical black holes in cosmological backgrounds motivates their further study. Here we show how the cosmological JNW spacetimes can be built, starting from simpler, static, higher dimensional, vacuum `JNW brane' solutions via two different generalized dimensional reduction schemes that together cover the full range of JNW parameter space. Cosmological versions of a BPS limit of charged dilaton black holes are also known. JNW spacetimes represent a different limiting case of the charged, dilaton black hole family. We expect that understanding this second data point may be key to finding cosmological versions of general, non-BPS black holes. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.08219 , 16kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.08231 Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 19:59:59 GMT (1978kb,D) Title: Moduli Backreaction on Inflationary Attractors Authors: Diederik Roest, Marco Scalisi and Pelle Werkman Categories: hep-th astro-ph.CO gr-qc hep-ph Comments: 23 pages, 13 figures Report-no: CERN-TH-2016-168, DESY 16-143 \\ We investigate the interplay between moduli dynamics and inflation, focusing on the KKLT-scenario and cosmological $\alpha$-attractors. General couplings between these sectors can induce a significant backreaction and potentially destroy the inflationary regime; however, we demonstrate that this generically does not happen for $\alpha$-attractors. Depending on the details of the superpotential, the volume modulus can either be stable during the entire inflationary trajectory, or become tachyonic at some point and act as a waterfall field, resulting in a sudden end of inflation. In the latter case there is a universal supersymmetric minimum where the scalars end up, preventing the decompactification scenario. The observational predictions conform to the universal value of attractors, fully compatible with the Planck data, with possibly a capped number of e-folds due to the interplay with moduli. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.08231 , 1978kb) %-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.07968 (*cross-listing*) Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 06:02:56 GMT (22kb) Title: Construction of $R$-matrices for symmetric tensor representations related to $U_{q}(\widehat{sl_{n}})$ Authors: Gary Bosnjak, Vladimir V.

Authors: Mohammad Ali Gorji Categories: gr-qc astro-ph.CO hep-th Comments: 11 pages, 2 figures, accepted for publication in PLB \\ In this paper, inspired by the ultraviolet deformation of the Friedmann-Lema\^{\i}tre-Robertson-Walker geometry in loop quantum cosmology, we formulate an infrared-modified cosmological model. We obtain the associated deformed Friedmann and Raychaudhuri equations and we show that the late time cosmic acceleration can be addressed by the infrared corrections. As a particular example, we applied the setup to the case of matter dominated universe. This model has the same number of parameters as $\Lambda$CDM, but a dynamical dark energy generates in the matter dominated era at the late time. According to our model, as the universe expands, the energy density of the cold dark matter dilutes and when the Hubble parameter approaches to its minimum, the infrared effects dominate such that the effective equation of state parameter smoothly changes from $w_{_{\rm eff}}=0$ to $w_{_{\rm eff}}=-2$. Interestingly and nontrivially, the unstable de Sitter phase with $w_{_{\rm eff}}=-1$ is corresponding to $\Omega_m=\Omega_d =0.5$ and the universe crosses the phantom divide from the quintessence phase with $w_{_{\rm eff}}>-1$ and $\Omega_m> \Omega_d$ to the phantom phase with $w_{_{\rm eff}}<-1$ and $ \Omega_m<\Omega_d$ which shows that the model is observationally viable. The results show that the universe finally ends up in a big rip singularity for a finite time proportional to the inverse of the minimum of the Hubble parameter. Moreover, we consider the dynamical stability of the model and we show that the universe starts from the matter dominated era at the past attractor with $w_{_{\rm eff}}=0$ and ends up in a future attractor at the big rip with $w_{_{\rm eff}}=-2$. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.08052 , 76kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.08121 (*cross-listing*) Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 14:30:46 GMT (300kb,D) Title: Digital lattice gauge theories Authors: Erez Zohar, Alessandro Farace, Benni Reznik, and J. Ignacio Cirac Categories: quant-ph cond-mat.quant-gas hep-lat hep-th \\ We propose a general scheme for a digital construction of lattice gauge theories with dynamical fermions. In this method, the four-body interactions arising in models with $2+1$ dimensions and higher, are obtained stroboscopically, through a sequence of two-body interactions with ancillary degrees of freedom. This yields stronger interactions than the ones obtained through pertubative methods, as typically done in previous proposals, and removes an important bottleneck in the road towards experimental realizations. The scheme applies to generic gauge theories with Lie or finite symmetry groups, both Abelian and non-Abelian. As a concrete example, we present the construction of a digital quantum simulator for a $\mathbb{Z}_{3}$ lattice gauge theory with dynamical fermionic matter in $2+1$ dimensions, using ultracold atoms in optical lattices, involving three atomic species, representing the matter, gauge and auxiliary degrees of freedom, that are separated in three different layers. By moving the ancilla atoms with a proper sequence of steps, we show how we can obtain the desired evolution in a clean, controlled way. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.08121 , 300kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.08133 (*cross-listing*) Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 14:57:09 GMT (328kb,D) Title: Electroweak Vacuum Instability and Renormalized Higgs Field Vacuum Fluctuations in the Inflationary Universe Authors: Kazunori Kohri, Hiroki Matsui Categories: hep-ph astro-ph.CO hep-th Comments: 28 pages \\ In this work, we investigated the electroweak vacuum instability during or after inflation. In the inflationary Universe, i.e., de Sitter space, the vacuum field fluctuations $\left< {\delta \phi }^{ 2 } \right>$ enlarge in proportion to the Hubble scale $H^{2}$. Therefore, the large inflationary vacuum fluctuations of the Higgs field $\left< {\delta \phi }^{ 2 } \right>$ are potentially catastrophic to trigger the vacuum transition to the negative-energy Planck-scale vacuum state and cause an immediate collapse of the Universe. However, the vacuum field fluctuations $\left< {\delta \phi }^{ 2 } \right>$, i.e., the vacuum expectation values have an ultraviolet divergence, and therefore a renormalization is necessary to estimate the physical effects of the vacuum transition. Thus, in this paper, we revisit the electroweak vacuum instability from the perspective of quantum field theory (QFT) in curved space-time, and discuss the dynamical behavior of the homogeneous Higgs field $\phi$ determined by the effective potential ${ V }_{\rm eff}\left( \phi \right)$ in curved space-time and the renormalized vacuum fluctuations $\left< {\delta \phi }^{ 2 } \right>_{\rm ren}$ via adiabatic regularization and point-splitting regularization. We simply suppose that the Higgs field only couples the gravity via the non-minimal Higgs-gravity coupling $\xi(\mu)$. In this scenario, the electroweak vacuum stability is inevitably threatened by the dynamical behavior of the homogeneous Higgs field $\phi$, or the formations of AdS domains or bubbles unless the Hubble scale is small enough $H< \Lambda_{I} $. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.08133 , 328kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1607.08191 (*cross-listing*) Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 17:37:42 GMT (2533kb,D) Title: Quantum walk on a cylinder Authors: Luis A. Bru, Germ\'an J. de Valc\'arcel, Giuseppe Di Molfetta, Armando P\'erez, Eugenio Rold\'an, and Fernando Silva Categories: quant-ph gr-qc hep-th Comments: 10 figures \\ We consider the 2D alternate quantum walk on a cylinder. We concentrate on the study of the motion along the open dimension, in the spirit of looking at the closed coordinate as a small or "hidden" extra dimension. If one starts from localized initial conditions on the lattice, the dynamics of the quantum walk that is obtained after tracing out the small dimension shows the contribution of several components, which can be understood from the study of the dispersion relations for this problem. In fact, these components originate from the contribution of the possible values of the quasi-momentum in the closed dimension. In the continuous space-time limit, the different components manifest as a set of Dirac equations, with each quasi-momentum providing the value of the corresponding mass. We briefly discuss the possible link of these ideas to the simulation of high energy physical theories that include extra dimensions. \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.08191 , 2533kb) %%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%%--%% ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1511.02892 replaced with revised version Tue, 26 Jul 2016 21:11:32 GMT (52kb) Title: Theta series, wall-crossing and quantum dilogarithm identities Authors: Sergei Alexandrov, Boris Pioline Categories: hep-th math-ph math.MP math.QA Comments: 26 pages; v2: added discussion on relation to complex Chern-Simons, misprints corrected Report-no: L2C:15-197, CERN-PH-TH-2015-262 Journal-ref: Lett.Math.Phys. 106 (2016) no.8, 1037-1066 DOI: 10.1007/s11005-016-0857-3 \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1511.02892 , 52kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1512.06344 (*cross-listing*) replaced with revised version Wed, 27 Jul 2016 04:20:07 GMT (195kb,D) Title: On post-inflation validity of perturbation theory in Horndeski scalar-tensor models Authors: Cristiano Germani, Nina Kudryashova, Yuki Watanabe Categories: astro-ph.CO gr-qc hep-ph hep-th Comments: 15 pages, 4 figures. v4: Discussion in conclusion section improved, Version accepted in JCAP Report-no: ICCUB-15-035 \\ ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.06344 , 195kb) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\ arXiv:1601.02125 replaced with revised version Wed, 27 Jul 2016 18:56:51 GMT (1807kb,D) Title: Phase diagram of 4D field theories with chiral anomaly from holography Authors: Martin Ammon, Julian Leiber, Rodrigo P.
