  1. Holography of a novel codimension-2 defect CFT

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A new D5-brane solution in AdS5 x S5 is proposed as the dual of a non-supersymmetric codimension-2 defect CFT, with matching one-point functions in a large-flux limit.

  2. An unusual BPS equation

    hep-th 2025-01 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    All rotation-invariant superconformal defects satisfy CD/aT = -2(n-1)(p+2)Γ(p+1)/(n π^{p-n/2} Γ(p/2+1)Γ((n-p)/2)), proved from supersymmetric Ward identities.

  3. Entanglement C-functions of defects and interfaces in $\mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A probe-D5 holographic calculation gives analytic defect/interface entanglement entropy for massive D3/D5 intersections and shows the entropic C-function is monotonic but not always a finite degree-of-freedom count.

  4. From Weyl Anomaly to Defect Supersymmetric R\'enyi Entropy and Casimir Energy

    hep-th 2025-01 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    In 6D (2,0) theories, defect supersymmetric Rényi entropy contribution is linear in 1/n and equals a constant times (2b - d2); Casimir energy contribution equals -d2 (up to constant) in the chiral algebra limit.
