D6-branes wrapping Kähler four-cycles
We construct supergravity duals of D6-branes wrapping Kähler four-cycles inside a Calabi-Yau threefold, CY3. We obtain the purely gravitational M-theory description, which turns out to be a Calabi-Yau fourfold, CY4. We also analyze the dynamics of a probe D6 in this background. 1 E-mail: [email protected] 2 E-mail: [email protected]
متن کاملThe Geometry of M-Branes Wrapping Special Lagrangian Cycles
We look at an M5-brane wrapping a Special Lagrangian 3-cycle in a Calabi-Yau 3-fold and study the geometry that arises when the backreaction of this brane is taken into account. Not surprisingly, the background does not remain complex. However an almost complex structure survives, (in terms of which we can define the analogue of the Kahler form), as does a globally defined (3,0) form. The requi...
متن کاملD6-branes and torsion
The D6-brane spectrum of type IIA vacua based on twisted tori T̃ 6 and RR background fluxes is analyzed. In particular, we compute the torsion factors of Hn(T̃ 6,Z) and describe the effect that they have on D6-brane physics. For instance, the fact that H3(T̃ 6,Z) contains ZN subgroups explains why RR tadpole conditions are affected by geometric fluxes. In addition, the presence of torsional (co)ho...
متن کاملBranes wrapping Black Holes
We examine the dynamics of extended branes, carrying lower dimensional brane charges, wrapping black holes and black hole microstates in M and Type II string theory. We show that they have a universal dispersion relation typical of threshold bound states with a total energy equal to the sum of the contributions from the charges. In near-horizon geometries of black holes, these are BPS states, a...
متن کاملBranes with fluxes wrapped on spheres
Following an eight-dimensional gauged supergravity approach we construct the most general solution describing D6-branes wrapped on a Kähler four-cycle taken to be the product of two spheres of different radii. Our solution interpolates between a Calabi–Yau four-fold and the spaces S × S × S × IR or S × S × IR, depending on generic choices for the parameters. Then we turn on a background four-fo...
