ADE-quiver theories and Mirror Symmetry
We show that the Higgs branch of a four-dimensional Yang-Mills theory, with gauge and matter content summarised by an ADE quiver diagram, is identical to the generalised Coulomb branch of a four-dimensional superconformal strongly coupled gauge theory with ADE global symmetry. This equivalence suggests the existence of a mirror symmetry between the quiver theories and the strongly coupled theor...
متن کاملLectures on Mirror Symmetry, Derived Categories, and D-branes 1. Mirror Symmetry from a Physical Viewpoint
This is an introduction to Homological Mirror Symmetry, derived categories, and topological D-branes aimed at a mathematical audience. In the last lecture we explain why it is necessary to enlarge the Fukaya category with coisotropic A-branes and discuss how to extend the definition of Floer homology to such objects. These lectures were delivered at IPAM, March 2003, as part of a program on Sym...
متن کاملDirichlet branes, homological mirror symmetry, and stability
We discuss some mathematical conjectures which have come out of the study of Dirichlet branes in superstring theory, focusing on the case of supersymmetric branes in Calabi-Yau compactification. This has led to the formulation of a notion of stability for objects in a derived category, contact with Kontsevich’s homological mirror symmetry conjecture, and ”physics proofs” for many of the subsequ...
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 کاملQuantization via Mirror Symmetry
When combined with mirror symmetry, the A-model approach to quantization leads to a fairly simple and tractable problem. The most interesting part of the problem then becomes finding the mirror of the coisotropic brane. We illustrate how it can be addressed in a number of interesting examples related to representation theory and gauge theory, in which mirror geometry is naturally associated wit...
