20.500.12556/DKUM-85978 All eight- and nine-dimensional string vacua from junctions String and 5-brane junctions are shown to succinctly classify all known 8D N ¼ 1 string vacua. This requires an extension of the description for ordinary ½p; q-7-branes to consistently include O7þ planes, which then naturally encodes the dynamics of spn gauge algebras, including their p-form center symmetries. Central to this analysis are loop junctions, i.e., strings/5-branes which encircle stacks of 7-branes and O7þs. Loop junctions further signal the appearance of affine symmetries of emergent 9D descriptions at the 8D moduli space’s boundaries. Such limits reproduce all 9D string vacua, including the two disconnected rank (1,1) moduli components. 9D string vacua 8D string vacua anomalies M-theory Non-Abelian gauge theories quantum gravity string dualities strings & branes supergravity Gauge symmetries supergravitacija M- teorija kvantna gravitacija anomalije true false true APS Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Znanstveno delo 2023-09-22 15:06:26 2023-09-22 15:06:26 2023-09-26 03:10:28 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2022 0 0 str. 1-44 Št. 2 Letn. 106 21. jul. 2022 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 2022-05-24 2022-06-29 2022-07-21 530.145 136978691 10.1103/PhysRevD.106.026007 2470-0029 All_eight-_and_nine-dimensional_st-Cvetic-2022.pdf All_eight-_and_nine-dimensional_st-Cvetic-2022.pdf 1 E958ED3EF840239BEB4C2CD1926D384A 0d1e971aeb1889e69c99fc636083a6304130f04bdce62baff9a943104fb8a5a4 232d30c5-5b71-11ee-ac19-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=172897 https://journals.aps.org/prd/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevD.106.026007#fulltext 0 2a9a1b67-5b71-11ee-ac19-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=172898 Univerza v Mariboru 0 0 0
