Willmore–Chen branes and Hopf T-duality∗
نویسنده
چکیده
We propose and study WCh-branes of M-theory and type IIA theory on backgrounds that are related by Hopf T-duality. The dynamics of these branes, with a reasonable degree of gauge symmetry, is reduced to that for particles that evolve somewhere along elastic worldlines. This constitutes an interesting holographic principle that allows us to determine moduli spaces of soliton solutions for WCh-brane dynamics. These solutions carry charges that are transferred to the partner particles and in most of the considered cases preserve some supersymmetry. In addition, we see that Hopf T-duality preserves these soliton moduli spaces. PACS numbers: 0240K, 0340D, 0450, 0465, 1110K, 1117

T-duality and Actions for Non-Commutative D-Branes
We show how the T-duality is realized for D-branes with noncommutative world-volume coordinates. We discuss D-branes wrapped on tori and the result is that the recently found noncommutative actions form a consistent collection due to the T-duality mapping between noncommutative D-branes and rotated commutative D-branes on deformed tori.

متن کاملA generalization of the Chen-Wu duality into quantale-valued setting
With the unit interval [0,1] as the truth value table, Chen and Wupresented the concept of possibility computation over dcpos.Indeed, every possibility computation can be considered as a[0,1]-valued Scott open set on a dcpo. The aim of this paper is tostudy Chen-Wu's duality on quantale-valued setting. For clarity,with a commutative unital quantale $L$ as the truth value table, weintroduce a c...
متن کاملGeometric aspects of D-branes and T-duality
We explore the differential geometry of T-duality and D-branes. Because D-branes and RR-fields are properly described via K-theory, we discuss the (differential) K-theoretic generalization of T-duality and its application to the coupling of D-branes to RR-fields. This leads to a puzzle involving the transformation of the A-roof genera in the coupling.
متن کاملT-duality and the Worldvolume Solitons of Five-Branes and KK-Monopoles
We show that the fluxes of the various six-dimensional “gauge” theories are associated to below threshold bound states of D-branes with the NS-5-branes and KK-monopoles which preserve half of bulk supersymmetry. We then present the supergravity solutions that correspond to these bound states. In addition using the worldvolume solitons of IIA and IIB NS-5-branes and KK-monopoles, we investigate ...
متن کاملIsothermic Surfaces and Hopf Cylinders
Based on the work of Pinkall, characterizations of spherical curves are given whose corresponding Hopf cylinders are isothermic surfaces in the threedimensional sphere. Comparing these characterizations with results of Langer and Singer about elastic spherical curves we determine all isothermic Willmore Hopf tori.
