چکیده

We study multiple 3-branes on an F theory orientifold. The world-volume theory of the 3-branes is d = 4, N = 2 Sp(2k) gauge theory with an antisymmetric tensor and four flavors of matter in the fundamental. The solution of this gauge theory is found for vanishing bare mass of the antisymmetric tensor matter, and massive fundamental matter. The integrable system underlying this theory is constructed.

Exceptional collections and D-branes probing toric singularities

Abstract: We demonstrate that a strongly exceptional collection on a singular toric surface can be used to derive the gauge theory on a stack of D3-branes probing the Calabi-Yau singularity caused by the surface shrinking to zero size. A strongly exceptional collection, i.e., an ordered set of sheaves satisfying special mapping properties, gives a convenient basis of D-branes. We find such coll...

Toward a Proof of Montonen-Olive Duality via Multiple M2-branes

We derive 4-dimensional N = 4 U(N) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory from a 3-dimensional Chern-Simons-matter theory with product gauge group (U(N)). The latter describes M2-branes probing an orbifold where a torus emerges in a scaling limit. It is expected that the SL(2,Z) duality of the 4-dimensional Yang-Mills theory will be shown in M-theory point of view since it is trivially realized as mo...

D1-D5 on ALE Space

We construct a two-dimensional N = (0, 4) quiver gauge theory on D1-brane probing D5-branes on ALE space, and study its IR behavior. This can be thought of as a gauged linear sigma model for the NS5-branes on ALE space.

Deformation Theory of Matrix Factorizations and F–Terms in the Boundary Changing Sector

We extend the deformation theory algorithm of matrix factorizations to systems with more than one D–brane. The obstructions to the deformations are F–term equations which can be integrated to an effective superpotential. We demonstrate the power of this formalism for several examples of minimal models with two or three D–branes. These are realistic toy examples for systems with multiple D–brane...

The dual superconformal theory for L p , q , r manifolds

We present the superconformal gauge theory living on the world-volume of D3 branes probing the toric singularities with horizon the recently discovered Sasaki-Einstein manifolds L. Various checks of the identification are made by comparing the central charge and the R-charges of the chiral fields with the information that can be extracted from toric geometry. Fractional branes are also introduc...
