A Note on Non-Commutative Field Theory and Stability of Brane-Antibrane Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
It has been conjectured that a pair ofD5−D5 branes wrapped on some non-trivial two cycle of a Calabi-Yau manifold becomes a stable BPS D3 brane in the presence of a very large B field and magnetic fluxes on their worldvolumes. We discuss this by considering the non-commutative field theory on the worldvolume of the pair of branes whose field multiplication is made with respect to two different ∗ products due to the presence of different F fields on the two branes. The tachyonic field becomes massless for a specific choice of the magnetic fluxes and it allows a trivial solution. Our discussion generalizes recent results concerning stability of brane-antibrane systems on Calabi-Yau spaces to the case of non-commutative branes.

Brane-Antibrane Systems on Calabi-Yau Spaces
We propose a correspondence between brane-antibrane systems and stable triples (E1, E2, T ), where E1, E2 are holomorphic vector bundles and the tachyon T is a map between them. We demonstrate that, under the assumption of holomorphicity, the brane-antibrane field equations reduce to a set of vortex equations, which are equivalent to the mathematical notion of stability of the triple. We discus...
متن کاملNon-commutative Branes from M-theory
The analysis of the worldvolume effective actions of the M-theory Kaluza-Klein monopole and 9-brane suggests that it should be possible to describe non-abelian configurations of M2-branes or M5-branes if the M2-branes are transverse to the eleventh direction and the M5-branes are wrapped on it. This is determined by the fact that the Kaluza-Klein monopole and the M9-brane are constrained to mov...
متن کاملBrane-Antibrane Action from Boundary String Field Theory
In this paper we give the boundary string theory description of brane-antibrane systems. From the world-sheet action of brane-antibrane systems we obtain the tachyon potential and discuss the tachyon condensation exactly. We also find the world-volume action including the gauge fields. Moreover we determine RRcouplings exactly for non-BPS branes and brane-antibranes. These couplings are known a...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Brane-Antibrane Configurations
We find a class of flat supersymmetric brane-antibrane configurations. They follow from ordinary brane-antibrane systems by turning on a specific worldvolume background electric field, which corresponds to dissolved fundamental strings. We have clarified in detail how they arise and identified their constituent charges as well as the corresponding supergravity solutions. Adopting the matrix the...
متن کاملReal-time D-brane condensation
Unstable D-branes or brane-antibrane systems can decay to lower-dimensional branes. In the effective field theory description, the final state branes are defects in the tachyon field which describes the initial instability. We study the dynamical formation of codimension one defects (kinks) using Sen’s ansatz for the tachyon Lagrangian. It is shown that the slope of the kink diverges within a f...
