F-theory is perhaps the most general currently available approach to study non-perturbative
string compactifications in their geometric, large radius regime. It opens up a wide and ever …

Generalized global symmetries are a common feature of many quantum field theories
decoupled from gravity. By contrast, in quantum gravity/the Swampland program, it is widely …

A bstract We consider F-theory compactifications on genus-one fibered Calabi-Yau
manifolds with their fibers realized as hypersurfaces in the toric varieties associated to the …

In F-theory compactifications, the abelian gauge sector is encoded in global structures of the
internal geometry. These structures lie at the intersection of algebraic and arithmetic …

We show that genus-one fibrations lacking a global section fit naturally into the geometric
moduli space of Weierstrass models. Elliptic fibrations with multiple sections (nontrivial …

A bstract We study the global structure of the gauge group G of F-theory compactified on an
elliptic fibration Y. The global properties of G are encoded in the torsion subgroup of the …

We initiate a systematic investigation of F-theory on elliptic fibrations with singularities which
cannot be resolved without breaking the Calabi–Yau condition, corresponding to Q-factorial …

A bstract We study the physics of F-theory compactifications on genus-one fibrations without
section by using an M-theory dual description. The five-dimensional action obtained by …

A bstract We study the Higgs branches of five-dimensional\(\mathcal {N}\)= 1 rank-zero
theories obtained from M-theory on two classes non-toric non-compact Calabi-Yau …

A bstract We study F-theory compactifications to four dimensions that exhibit discrete gauge
symmetries. Geometrically these arise by deforming elliptic fibrations with two sections to a …
