Cohomological Field Theory Approach to Matrix Strings
In this paper we consider IIA and IIB matrix string theories which are defined by twodimensional and three-dimensional super Yang-Mills theory with the maximal supersymmetry, respectively. We exactly compute the partition function of both of the theories by mapping to a cohomological field theory. Our result for the IIA matrix string theory coincides with the result obtained in the infra-red li...
متن کاملStrings in a B - field Background as Electric Dipoles
Studying dynamics of open strings attached to a D2-brane in a NS two form field background, we find that these open strings act as dipoles of U (1) gauge field of the
متن کاملBPS states in Matrix Strings
Matrix string theory (or more generally U-Duality) requires Super Yang-Mills theory to reflect a stringy degeneracy of BPS short multiplets. These are found as supersymmetric states in the Yang-Mills carrying (fractionated) momentum, or in some cases, instanton number. Their energies also agree with those expected from M(atrix) theory. A nice parallel also emerges in the relevant cases, between...
متن کاملHeterotic strings in a uniform magnetic field
An exact conformal model representing a constant magnetic field background in heterotic string theory is explicitly solved in terms of free creation/annihilation operators. The spectrum of physical states is examined for different possible embeddings of the magnetic U(1) subgroup. We find that an arbitrarily small magnetic field gives rise to an infinite number of tachyonic excitations correspo...
متن کاملA Note on T-Duality, Open Strings in B-field Background and Canonical Transformations
In this paper we study T-duality for open strings ending on branes with non-zero B-field on them from the point of view of canonical transformations. For the particular case of type II strings on the two torus we show that the Sl(2, Z)N transformations can be understood as a sub-class of canonical transformations on the open strings in the B-field background. ∗ E-mail:[email protected]
