Moduli Spaces for D-branes at the Tip of a Cone
نویسندگان
چکیده
For physicists: We show that the quiver gauge theory derived from a Calabi-Yau cone via an exceptional collection of line bundles on the base has the original cone as a component of its classical moduli space. For mathematicians: We use data from the derived category of sheaves on a Fano surface to construct a quiver, and show that its moduli space of representations has a component which is isomorphic to the anticanonical cone over the surface.

D - branes on Calabi - Yau Spaces
In this thesis the properties of D-branes on Calabi–Yau spaces are investigated. Compactifications of type II string theories on these spaces to which D-branes are added lead to N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theories on the world-volume of these D-branes. Both the Calabi–Yau spaces and the D-branes have in general a moduli space. We examine the dependence of the gauge theory on the choice of the m...
متن کاملThe Moduli Spaces of Worldvolume Brane Solitons
We compute the moduli metrics of worldvolume 0-brane solitons of D-branes and the worldvolume self-dual string solitons of the M-5-brane and examine their geometry. We find that the moduli spaces of 0-brane solitons of D-4-branes and D-8-branes are hyper-Kähler manifolds with torsion and octonionic Kähler manifolds with torsion, respectively. The moduli space of the self-dual string soliton of ...
متن کاملAnomalies and O-plane charges in orientifolded brane tilings
We investigate orientifold of brane tilings. We clarify how the cancellations of gauge anomaly and Witten’s anomaly are guaranteed by the conservation of the D5-brane charge. We also discuss the relation between brane tilings and the dual Calabi-Yau cones realized as the moduli spaces of gauge theories. Two types of flavor D5-branes in brane tilings and corresponding superpotentials of fundamen...
متن کاملD-brane realizations of runaway behavior and moduli stabilization
In this paper we find examples of moduli stabilization and runaway behavior which can be treated exactly. This is shown for supersymmetric field theories which can be realized on the world volume of D-branes. From a geometric point of view, these field theories lift moduli spaces of vacua by deforming lines of singularities where supersymmetric fractional branes can be located in the geometry w...
متن کاملQuantum moduli spaces from matrix models
In this paper we show that the matrix model techniques developed by Dijkgraaf and Vafa can be extended to compute quantum deformed moduli spaces of vacua in four dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories. The examples studied give the moduli space of a bulk D-brane probe in geometrically engineered theories, in the presence of fractional branes at singularities.
