Abelian and non-Abelian branes in WZW models and gerbes
We discuss how gerbes may be used to set up a consistent Lagrangian approach to the WZW models with boundary. The approach permits to study in detail possible boundary conditions that restrict the values of the fields on the worldsheet boundary to brane submanifolds in the target group. Such submanifolds are equipped with an additional geometric structure that is summarized in the notion of a g...
متن کاملNon-Abelian Discrete Flavor Symmetries from Magnetized/Intersecting Brane Models
We study non-abelian discrete flavor symmetries, which can appear in magnetized brane models. For example, D4, ∆(27) and ∆(54) can appear and matter fields with several representations can appear. We also study the orbifold background, where non-abelian flavor symmetries are broken in a certain way. email: [email protected] email: [email protected] email: [email protected]...
متن کاملNon-Abelian Gerbes from Strings on a Branched Space-Time
As superstring solitons that carry Neuveu–Schwarz charge can be described in terms of gerbes, one expects non-Abelian gerbes to appear e.g. in the exotic six-dimensional world-volume theories of coinciding NS5 branes. We consider open bosonic strings on a space-time that is branched in such a way that the B-field is provided with the same Lie algebra structure as the world-volume gauge field on...
متن کاملGerbes and Abelian Motives
Assuming the Hodge conjecture for abelian varieties of CM-type, one obtains a good category of abelian motives over Fal p and a reduction functor to it from the category of CM-motives over Qal. Consequently, one obtains a morphism of gerbes of fibre functors with certain properties. We prove unconditionally that there exists a morphism of gerbes with these properties, and we classify them.
متن کاملTopological Quantum Field Theory on Non-Abelian Gerbes
The infinitesimal symmetries of a fully decomposed non-Abelian gerbe can be generated in terms of a nilpotent BRST operator, which is here constructed. The appearing fields find a natural interpretation in terms of the universal gerbe, a generalisation of the universal bundle. We comment on the construction of observables in the arising Topological Quantum Field Theory. It is also shown how the...
