A new wrinkle on the enhançon
We generalize the basic enhançon solution of Johnson, Peet and Polchinski [1] by constructing solutions without spherical symmetry. A careful consideration of boundary conditions at the enhançon surface indicates that the interior of the supergravity solution is still flat space in the general case. We provide some explicit analytic solutions where the enhançon locus is a prolate or oblate sphe...
متن کاملEvidence for Heterotic/heterotic Duality
We re-examine the question of heterotic heterotic string duality in six dimensions and argue that the E8 ×E8 heterotic string, compactified on K3 with equal instanton numbers in the two E8’s, has a self-duality that inverts the coupling, dualizes the antisymmetric tensor, acts non-trivially on the hypermultiplets, and exchanges gauge fields that can be seen in perturbation theory with gauge fie...
متن کاملOrientifolds , M – Theory , and the ABCD ’ s of the Enhançon
Supergravity solutions related to large N SU(N) pure gauge theories with eight supercharges have recently been shown to give rise to an “enhançon”, a new type of hypersurface made of D–branes. We show that enhançons also arise in similar situations pertaining to SO(2N+1), USp(2N) and SO(2N) gauge theories, using orientifolds. Enhançons therefore appear to come in types A, B, C, and D. The latte...
متن کاملThe Enhançon and N = 2 Gauge Theory / Gravity RG Flows
We study the family of ten dimensional type IIB supergravity solutions corresponding to renormalisation group flows from N = 4 to N = 2 supersymmetric SU(N) Yang–Mills theory. Part of the solution set corresponds to a submanifold of the Coulomb branch of the gauge theory, and we use a D3–brane probe to uncover details of this physics. At generic places where supergravity is singular, the smooth...
متن کاملHeterotic Computing
Non-classical computation has tended to consider only single computational models: neural, analog, quantum, etc. However, combined computational models can both have more computational power, and more natural programming approaches, than such ‘pure’ models alone. Here we outline a proposed new approach, which we term heterotic computing. We discuss how this might be incorporated in an accessibl...
