چکیده

A maximally supersymmetric configuration of super Yang-Mills living on a noncommutative torus corresponds to a constant curvature connection. On a noncommutative toroidal orbifold there is an additional constraint that the connection be equivariant. We study moduli spaces of (equivariant) constant curvature connections on noncommutative even-dimensional tori and on toroidal orbifolds. As an illustration we work out the cases of Z2 and Z4 orbifolds in detail. The results we obtain agree with a commutative picture describing systems of branes wrapped on cycles of the torus and branes stuck at exceptional orbifold points.

Noncommutative geometry is based on an idea that an associative algebra can be regarded as " an algebra of functions on a noncommutative space ". The major contribution to noncommutative geometry was made by A. Connes, who, in particular, analyzed Yang-Mills theories on noncommutative spaces, using important notions that were introduced in his papers (connection, Chern character, etc). It was f...

Towards a Noncommutative Geometric Approach to Matrix Compactification

In this paper we study generic M(atrix) theory compactifications that are specified by a set of quotient conditions. A procedure is proposed, which both associates an algebra to each compactification and leads deductively to general solutions for the matrix variables. The notion of noncommutative geometry on the dual space is central to this construction. As examples we apply this procedure to ...

On a desingularization of the moduli space of noncommutative tori

It is shown that the moduli space of the noncommutative tori Aθ admits a natural desingularization by the group Ext (Aθ, Aθ). Namely, we prove that the moduli space of pairs (Aθ, Ext (Aθ, Aθ)) is homeomorphic to a punctured two-dimensional sphere. The proof is based on a correspondence (a covariant functor) between the complex and noncommutative tori.

We study gauge theories on noncommutative tori. It was proved in [5] that Morita equivalence of noncommutative tori leads to a physical equivalence (SO(d, d|Z)-duality) of the corresponding gauge theories. We calculate the energy spectrum of maximally supersymmetric BPS states in these theories and show that this spectrum agrees with the SO(d, d|Z)-duality. The relation of our results with thos...
