Supersymmetric Backgrounds from Generalized Calabi-Yau Manifolds
We show that the supersymmetry transformations for type II string theories on six-manifolds can be written as differential conditions on a pair of pure spinors, the exponentiated Kähler form e and the holomorphic form Ω. The equations are explicitly symmetric under exchange of the two pure spinors and a choice of even or odd-rank RR field. This is mirror symmetry for manifolds with torsion. Mor...
متن کاملBrane Gases on K3 and Calabi-yau Manifolds
We initiate the study of Brane Gas Cosmology (BGC) on manifolds with non-trivial holonomy. Such compactifications are required within the context of superstring theory in order to make connections with realistic particle physics. We study the dynamics of brane gases constructed from various string theories on background spaces having a K3 submanifold. The K3 compactifications provide a stepping...
متن کاملAutomorphisms and the Kähler Cone of Certain Calabi-yau Manifolds
and let f = π1 · p = π2 · p2 : X → P . Schoen [S] has shown that if the surfaces are sufficiently general, then X is a smooth Calabi-Yau manifold. Let K(X) be the closure of the Kähler cone of X . By construction K(X) has infinitely many edges. Here we show that there is a fundamental domain which is a (finite) rational polyhedral cone, for the induced action of Aut(X) on K(X). Our work was ins...
متن کاملCalabi-Yau manifolds constructed by K3 fibration with involution
The method to construct the Calabi-Yau manifolds and their mirrors from K3 surfaces was developed by Borcea and Voisin. Using this method, some Calabi-Yau manifolds are constructed. We also investigate their applicability to string duality. [email protected] [email protected]
متن کاملNon-Commutative Calabi-Yau Manifolds
We discuss aspects of the algebraic geometry of compact non-commutative CalabiYau manifolds. In this setting, it is appropriate to consider local holomorphic algebras which can be glued together into a compact Calabi-Yau algebra. We consider two examples: a toroidal orbifold T /Z2×Z2, and an orbifold of the quintic in CP4, each with discrete torsion. The non-commutative geometry tools are enoug...
