Brane Dynamics and Gauge Theory
We review some aspects of the interplay between the dynamics of branes in string theory and the classical and quantum physics of gauge theories with different numbers of supersymmetries in various dimensions.
متن کاملGeometric Transitions, Brane Dynamics and Gauge Theories
We consider the interplay between brane constructions and type IIA, IIB or M-theory geometries on Calabi-Yau (CY) and G2 holonomy manifolds. This is related to N = 1 (and N = 2) gauge theories in four dimensions. We first discuss simple geometric transitions corresponding to brane set ups involving orthogonal (or parallel) Neveu-Schwarz branes that approach each other. This is related to confin...
متن کاملBrane-like States in Superstring Theory and the Dynamics of non-Abelian Gauge Theories
We propose a string-theoretic ansatz describing the dynamics of SU(N) Yang-Mills theories in the limit of large N in D = 4. The construction uses in a crucial way branelike states, open-string non-perturbative states described by vertex operators of non-trivial ghost cohomologies. As we have discussed in previous papers, these physical vertex operators do not account for particle states in the ...
متن کاملS ep 2 00 4 Non - BPS Brane Dynamics And Dual Tensor Gauge Theory
The action for the long wavelength oscillations of a non-BPS p=3 brane embedded in N=1, D=5 superspace is determined by means of the coset method. The D=4 world volume Nambu-Goldstone boson of broken translation invariance and the two D=4 world volume Weyl spinor Goldstinos of the completely broken supersymmetry describe the excitations of the brane into the broken space and superspace directio...
متن کاملThe Off-shell M5-brane and Non-Perturbative Gauge Theory
M5-branes wrapping a holomorphic curve in a Calabi-Yau manifold can be used to construct four-dimensional N = 1 gauge theories. In this paper we will consider M5-brane configurations corresponding to N = 2 theories broken to N = 1 by a superpotential for the adjoint scalar field. These M5-brane configurations can be obtained by lifting suitable intersecting brane configurations in type IIA, or ...
