Localized intersections of M5-branes and four-dimensional superconformal field theories
نویسندگان
چکیده
We write supersymmetry preserving conditions for infinite M5branes intersecting on a (3+1)-dimensional space. In contrast to previously known solutions, these intersections are completely localized. We solve the equations for a particular class of configurations which in the near-horizon decoupling limit are dual to Nf = 2Nc SeibergWitten superconformal field theories with gauge group SU(N) and generalisations to SU(N)n. We also discuss the relationship to D3branes in the presence of an Ak singularity. HUB-EP-99/11 hep-th/9902210 email: [email protected] email: [email protected]

Warped AdS near-horizon geometry of completely localized intersections of M5-branes
We study a Hanany-Witten set-up relevant to N = 2 superconformal field theories. We find the exact near-horizon solution for this 11-dimensional system which involves intersecting M5-branes. The metric describes a warped product of AdS5 with a manifold with SU(2) ×U(1) isometry. USITP-00-08 DTP/00/45 hep-th/0006060 email: [email protected] email: [email protected]
متن کاملMatrix Description of Intersecting M5 Branes
Novel 3+1 dimensional N = 2 superconformal field theories (with tensionless BPS string solitons) are believed to arise when two sets of M5 branes intersect over a 3+1 dimensional hyperplane. We derive a DLCQ description of these theories as supersymmetric quantum mechanics on the Higgs branch of suitable 4d N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theories. Our formulation allows us to determine the scaling ...

We describe configurations of 5-branes and 7-branes which realize, when compactified on a circle, new isolated four-dimensional N = 2 superconformal field theories recently constructed by Gaiotto. Our diagrammatic method allows to easily count the dimensions of Coulomb and Higgs branches, with the help of a generalized s-rule. We furthermore show that superconformal field theories with E 6,7,8 ...
متن کاملGibbons-Hawking M-branes
We present new M2 and M5 brane solutions in M-theory based on transverse Gibbons-Hawking spaces. These solutions provide realizations of fully localized type IIA D2/D6 and NS5/D6 brane intersections. One novel feature of these solutions is that the metric function depend on more than two transverse coordinates (unlike all the other previous known solutions). All the solutions have eight preserv...
متن کاملNew Reducible Five-brane Solutions in M-theory
We construct new M-theory solutions of M5 branes that are a realization of the fully localized ten dimensional NS5/D6 and NS5/D5 brane intersections. These solutions are obtained by embedding self-dual geometries lifted to M-theory. We reduce these solutions down to ten dimensions, obtaining new D-brane systems in type IIA/IIB supergravity. The worldvolume theories of the NS5-branes are new non...
