We study extremal curves associated with a functional which is linear in the curves torsion. The functional in question is known to capture the properties of entanglement entropy for two-dimensional conformal field theories with chiral anomalies and has potential applications in elucidating the equilibrium shape of elastic linear structures. We derive the equations that determine the shape of its extremal curves in general ambient spaces in terms of geometric quantities. We show that the solutions to these shape equations correspond to a three-dimensional version of Mathissons helical motions for the centers of mass of spinning probes. Thereafter, we focus on the case of maximally symmetric spaces, where solutions correspond to cylindrical helices and find that the Lancret ratio of these equals the relative speed between the Mathisson-Pirani and the Tulczyjew-Dixon observers. Finally, we construct all possible helical motions in three-dimensional manifolds with constant negative curvature. In particular, we discover a rich space of helices in AdS$_3$ which we explore in detail.

We study the physical properties of a length-torsion functional which encodes the holographic entanglement entropy for 1+1 dimensional theories with chiral anomalies. Previously, we have shown that its extremal curves correspond to the mysterious Mat
hissons helical motions for the centroids of spinning bodies. We explore the properties of these helices in domain-wall backgrounds using both analytic and numerical techniques. Using these insights we derive an entropic $c$-function $c_{mathrm{Hel}}(ell)$ which can be succinctly expressed in terms of Noether charges conserved along these helical motions. While for generic values of the anomaly there is some ambiguity in the definition of $c_{mathrm{Hel}}(ell)$, we argue that at the chiral point this ambiguity is absent.
We study codimension-even conical defects that contain a deficit solid angle around each point along the defect. We show that they lead to a delta function contribution to the Lovelock scalar and we compute the contribution by two methods. We then sh
ow that these codimension-even defects appear as Euclidean brane solutions in higher dimensional topological AdS gravity which is Lovelock-Chern-Simons gravity without torsion. The theory possesses a holographic Weyl anomaly that is purely of type-A and proportional to the Lovelock scalar. Using the formula for the defect contribution, we prove a holographic duality between codimension-even defect partition functions and codimension-even brane on-shell actions in Euclidean signature. More specifically, we find that the logarithmic divergences match, because the Lovelock-Chern-Simons action localizes on the brane exactly. We demonstrate the duality explicitly for a spherical defect on the boundary which extends as a codimension-even hyperbolic brane into the bulk. For vanishing brane tension, the geometry is a foliation of Euclidean AdS space that provides a one-parameter generalization of AdS-Rindler space.
We present a complete study of the geodesics around naked singularities in AdS$_3$, the three-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime. These stationary spacetimes, characterized by two conserved charges --mass and angular momentum--, are obtained throug
h identifications along spacelike Killing vectors with a fixed point. They are interpreted as massive spinning point particles, and can be viewed as three-dimensional analogues of cosmic strings in four spacetime dimensions. The geodesic equations are completely integrated and the solutions are expressed in terms of elementary functions. We classify different geodesics in terms of their radial bounds, which depend on the constants of motion. Null and spacelike geodesics approach the naked singularity from infinity and either fall into the singularity or wind around and go back to infinity, depending on the values of these constants, except for the extremal and massless cases for which a null geodesic could have a circular orbit. Timelike geodesics never escape to infinity and do not always fall into the singularity, namely, they can be permanently bounded between two radii. The spatial projections of the geodesics (orbits) exhibit self-intersections, whose number is particularly simple for null geodesics. As a particular application, we also compute the lengths of fixed-time spacelike geodesics of the static naked singularity using two different regularizations.
We describe how unbounded three--form fluxes can lead to families of $AdS_3 times S_7$ vacua, with constant dilaton profiles, in the $USp(32)$ model with brane supersymmetry breaking and in the $U(32)$ 0B model, if their (projective--)disk dilaton ta
dpoles are taken into account. We also describe how, in the $SO(16) times SO(16)$ heterotic model, if the torus vacuum energy $Lambda$ is taken into account, unbounded seven--form fluxes can support similar $AdS_7 times S_3$ vacua, while unbounded three--form fluxes, when combined with internal gauge fields, can support $AdS_3 times S_7$ vacua, which continue to be available even if $Lambda$ is neglected. In addition, special gauge field fluxes can support, in the $SO(16) times SO(16)$ heterotic model, a set of $AdS_{n}times S_{10-n}$ vacua, for all $n=2,..,8$. String loop and $alpha$ corrections appear under control when large form fluxes are allowed.
We classify the geometries of the most general warped, flux AdS backgrounds of heterotic supergravity up to two loop order in sigma model perturbation theory. We show under some mild assumptions that there are no $AdS_n$ backgrounds with $n ot=3$. Mo
reover the warp factor of AdS$_3$ backgrounds is constant, the geometry is a product $AdS_3times M^7$ and such solutions preserve, 2, 4, 6 and 8 supersymmetries. The geometry of $M^7$ has been specified in all cases. For 2 supersymmetries, it has been found that $M^7$ admits a suitably restricted $G_2$ structure. For 4 supersymmetries, $M^7$ has an $SU(3)$ structure and can be described locally as a circle fibration over a 6-dimensional KT manifold. For 6 and 8 supersymmetries, $M^7$ has an $SU(2)$ structure and can be described locally as a $S^3$ fibration over a 4-dimensional manifold which either has an anti-self dual Weyl tensor or a hyper-Kahler structure, respectively. We also demonstrate a new Lichnerowicz type theorem in the presence of $alpha$ corrections.
