$T\overline{T}$ Deformation of $\mathcal{N}=(1,1)$ Off-Shell Supersymmetry and Partially Broken Supersymmetry

We construct the superaction for the $T\overline{T}$ deformation of 2D free $\mathcal{N}=(1,1)$ supersymmetric model with a deformed superfield. We show that the $\mathcal{N}=(1,1)$ off-shell supersymmetry in the free theory is deformed under the $T\overline{T}$ deformation, which is incorporated in the deformed superfield. We interpret this superaction as an effective action of the Goldstone superfield for the partial spontaneous breaking of $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetry to $\mathcal{N}=(1,1)$. We show that the unbroken and broken supersymmetry of the effective superaction corresponds to the off-shell $\mathcal{N}=(1,1)$ supersymmetry and the off-shell fermi global non-linear symmetry in the $T\overline{T}$-deformed theory, respectively. We demonstrate that this effective superaction can be obtained by the non-linear realization of the partially broken global supersymmetry~(PBGS) from the coset superspace. Furthermore, we reproduce the superaction by the constrained superfield method accompanied by a field redefinition.

Construction of bulk solutions for towers of pole-skipping points

The pole-skipping phenomenon has been proposed as a connection between chaotic properties of black hole geometries and special points where regular solutions of linearized Einstein equations at horizons have extra free parameters. In this work, we pursue the special points in the near-horizon analysis of integer spin-$\ell$ fields on the Rindler-AdS black hole. We construct linear combinations of field components to simplify coupled equations of massive fields and investigate towers of the special points along with imaginary Matsubara frequencies $iω=2π(n+1-\ell)T$ with a non-negative integer $n$ and the Hawking temperature $T$. We also propose that integrals of spin-$\ell$ bulk propagators over horizons of static black holes capture behaviors at the special points, which are generalizations of integrals of graviton propagators for shock wave geometries. Their interpretation is provided in terms of four-point amplitudes with the spin-$\ell$ exchange.

$T\bar T$-deformed Fermionic Theories Revisited

We revisit $T\bar T$ deformations of $d=2$ theories with fermions with a view toward the quantization. As a simple illustration, we compute the deformed Dirac bracket for a Majorana doublet and confirm the known eigenvalue flows perturbatively. We mostly consider those $T\bar T$ theories that can be reconstructed from string-like theories upon integrating out the worldsheet metric. After a quick overview of how this works when we add NSR-like or GS-like fermions, we obtain a known non-supersymmetric $T\bar T$ deformation of a $\cN=(1,1)$ theory from the latter, based on the Noether energy-momentum. This worldsheet reconstruction implies that the latter is actually a supersymmetric subsector of a $d=3$ GS-like model, implying hidden supercharges, which we do construct explicitly. This brings us to ask about different $T\bar T$ deformations, such as manifestly supersymmetric $T\bar T$ and also more generally via the symmetric energy-momentum. We show that, for theories with fermions, such choices often lead us to doubling of degrees of freedom, with potential unitarity issues. We show that the extra sector develops a divergent gap in the "small deformation" limit and decouples in the infrared, although it remains uncertain in what sense these can be considered a deformation.

Regge conformal blocks from the Rindler-AdS black hole and the pole-skipping phenomena

We study a holographic construction of conformal blocks in the Regge limit of four-point scalar correlation functions by using coordinates of the two-sided Rindler-AdS black hole. As a generalization of geodesic Witten diagrams, we construct diagrams with four external scalar fields in the Rindler-AdS black hole by integrating over two half-geodesics between the centers of Penrose diagrams and points at the AdS boundary. We demonstrate that late-time behaviors of the diagrams coincide with the Regge behaviors of conformal blocks. We also point out their relevance with the pole-skipping phenomena by showing that the near-horizon analysis of symmetric traceless fields with any integer spin in the Rindler-AdS black hole can capture the Regge behaviors of conformal blocks.

Holographic scalar and vector exchange in OTOCs and pole-skipping phenomena

We study scalar and vector exchange terms in out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs) holographically. By applying a computational method in graviton exchange, we analyze exponential behaviors in scalar and vector exchange terms at late times. We show that their exponential behaviors in simple holographic models are related to pole-skipping points obtained from the near-horizon equations of motion of scalar and vector fields. Our results are generalizations of the relation between the graviton exchange effect in OTOCs and the pole-skipping phenomena of the dual operator, to scalar and vector fields.

Pole-skipping of scalar and vector fields in hyperbolic space: conformal blocks and holography

Motivated by the recent connection between pole-skipping phenomena of two point functions and four point out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs), we study the pole structure of thermal two-point functions in $d$-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs) in hyperbolic space. We derive the pole-skipping points of two-point functions of scalar and vector fields by three methods (one field theoretic and two holographic methods) and confirm that they agree. We show that the leading pole-skipping point of two point functions is related with the late time behavior of conformal blocks and shadow conformal blocks in four-point OTOCs.

On the Nature of Propagating Intensity Disturbances in Polar Plumes during the 2017 Total Solar Eclipse

The propagating intensity disturbances (PIDs) in plumes are still poorly understood and their identity (magnetoacoustic waves or flows) remains an open question. We investigate PIDs in five plumes located in the northern polar coronal hole observed during the 2017 total solar eclipse. Three plumes are associated with coronal bright points, jets and macrospicules at their base (active plumes) and the other two plumes are not (quiet plumes). The electron temperature at the base of the plumes is obtained from the filter ratio of images taken with the X-ray Telescope on board Hinode and the passband ratio around 400 nm from an eclipse instrument, the Diagnostic Coronagraph Experiment (DICE). The phase speed (v_r), frequency (omega), and wavenumber (k) of the PIDs in the plumes are obtained by applying a Fourier transformation to the space-time (r-t plane) plots in images taken with the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) in three different wavelength channels (171 A, 193 A, and 211 A). We found that the PIDs in the higher temperature AIA channels, 193 and 211 A, are faster than that of the cooler AIA 171 A channel. This tendency is more significant for the active plumes than the quiet ones. The observed speed ratio (~1.3) between the AIA 171 and 193 A channels is similar to the theoretical value (1.25) of a slow magnetoacoustic wave. Our results support the idea that PIDs in plumes represent a superposition of slow magnetoacoustic waves and plasma outflows that consist of dense cool flows and hot coronal jets.

Classifying pole-skipping points

We clarify general mathematical and physical properties of pole-skipping points. For this purpose, we analyse scalar and vector fields in hyperbolic space. This setup is chosen because it is simple enough to allow us to obtain analytical expressions for the Green's function and check everything explicitly, while it contains all the essential features of pole-skipping points. We classify pole-skipping points in three types (type-I, II, III). Type-I and Type-II are distinguished by the (limiting) behavior of the Green's function near the pole-skipping points. Type-III can arise at non-integer $iω$ values, which is due to a specific UV condition, contrary to the types I and II, which are related to a non-unique near-horizon boundary condition. We also clarify the relation between the pole-skipping structure of the Green's function and the near-horizon analysis. We point out that there are subtle cases where the near-horizon analysis alone may not be able to capture the existence and properties of the pole-skipping points.
