Topological Strings on Noncommutative Manifolds
We identify a deformation of the N = 2 supersym-metric sigma model on a Calabi-Yau manifold X which has the same effect on B-branes as a noncommutative deformation of X. We show that for hyperkähler X such deformations allow one to interpolate continuously between the A-model and the B-model. For generic values of the noncommutativity and the B-field, properties of the topologically twisted sig...
متن کاملTopological Strings
Following some recent works of Witten, we explore topological non-linear sigma models (TSM). W e construct 2-D topological gravity which is then coupled to the TSM resulting in a topological bosonic string theory. This theory has a nontachyonic vacuum and can be formulated on any even dimensional target manifold which admits some non-trivial topology. It is then shown that the metric independen...
متن کاملHypermultiplets and Topological Strings
The c-map relates classical hypermultiplet moduli spaces in compactifications of type II strings on a Calabi-Yau threefold to vector multiplet moduli spaces via a further compactification on a circle. We give an off-shell description of the c-map in N = 2 superspace. The superspace Lagrangian for the hypermultiplets is a single function directly related to the prepotential of special geometry, ...
متن کاملKnot Invariants and Topological Strings
We find further evidence for the conjecture relating large N Chern-Simons theory on S with topological string on the resolved conifold geometry by showing that the Wilson loop observable of a simple knot on S (for any representation) agrees to all orders in N with the corresponding quantity on the topological string side. For a general knot, we find a reformulation of the knot invariant in term...
متن کاملS-duality and topological strings
In this paper we show how S-duality of type-IIB superstrings leads to an Sduality relating Aand B-model topological strings on the same Calabi-Yau as had been conjectured recently: D-instantons of the B-model correspond to A-model perturbative amplitudes and D-instantons of the A-model capture perturbative B-model amplitudes. Moreover this confirms the existence of new branes in the two models....
