Worldsheet formalism for decoupling limits in string theory
A bstract We study the bosonic sector of a decoupling limit of type IIA superstring theory,
where a background Ramond-Ramond one-form is fined tuned to its critical value, such that …

Exact approaches on the string worldsheet
S Demulder, S Driezen, B Knighton… - Journal of Physics A …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
We review different exact approaches to string theory. In the context of the Green–Schwarz
superstring, we discuss the action in curved backgrounds and its supercoset formulation …

Matrix Theory Reloaded: A BPS Road to Holography
We revisit the decoupling limits that lead to matrix theories on D-branes. We highlight the
BPS nature of these limits, in which the target space geometry becomes non-Lorentzian and …

Anisotropic compactification of nonrelativistic M-theory
A bstract We study a decoupling limit of M-theory where the three-form gauge potential
becomes critical. This limit leads to nonrelativistic M-theory coupled to a non-Lorentzian …

Reciprocal non-relativistic decoupling limits of String Theory and M-Theory
N Lambert, J Smith - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract It has recently been realised that there are supersymmetry-preserving non-

Non-relativistic M2-branes and the AdS/CFT correspondence
N Lambert, J Smith - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract A non-relativistic limit of the AdS/CFT correspondence is studied in the context of
M2-branes. On the field theory side this corresponds to a near-BPS limit of ABJM that …

Asymptotically Nonrelativistic String Backgrounds
D Avila, A Guijosa, R Olmedo - arXiv preprint arXiv:2312.13243, 2023 - arxiv.org
In recent years, interesting curved-space extensions of nonrelativistic (NR) string theory
have been very actively pursued, where the background has a structure that is a stringy …

Non-relativistic heterotic string theory
EA Bergshoeff, L Romano - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract In this work we consider heterotic-gravity as the low-energy approximation to
heterotic string theory. We define a consistent non-relativistic limit of heterotic gravity that …
