M/F theory orbifolds
We consider M-theory on (T ×R)/Zn with M5 branes wrapped on R2. One can probe this background with M5 branes wrapped on T2. The theories on the probes provide many new examples of N = 2 field theories without Lagrangian description. All these theories have Coulomb branches, and we find the corresponding SeibergWitten curves. The exact solution is encoded in a Hitchin system on an orbifolded tor...
متن کاملString Theory on AdS Orbifolds
We consider worldsheet string theory on ZN orbifolds of AdS3 associated with conical singularities. If the orbifold action includes a similar twist of S3, supersymmetry is preserved, and there is a moduli space of vacua arising from blowup modes of the orbifold singularity. We exhibit the spectrum, including the properties of twisted sectors and states obtained by fractional spectral flow. A su...
متن کاملTopological Terms in String Theory on Orbifolds
We study toroidal orbifold models with topologically invariant terms in the path integral formalism and give physical interpretations of the terms from an operator formalism point of view. We briefly discuss a possibility of a new class of modular invariant orbifold models.

متن کاملEquivariant inverse spectral theory and toric orbifolds
Let O be a symplectic toric orbifold with a fixed T-action and with a toric Kähler metric g. In [10] we explored whether, when O is a manifold, the equivariant spectrum of the Laplace operator ∆g on C∞(O) determines the moment polytope of O, and hence by Delzant’s theorem determines O up to symplectomorphism. In the setting of toric orbifolds we significantly improve upon our previous results a...
متن کاملAnomaly cancellation in M–theory on orbifolds
We present calculation of the anomaly cancellation in M–theory on orbifolds S/ZZ2 and T /ZZ2 in the upstairs approach. The main requirement that allows one to uniquely define solutions to the modified Bianchi identities in this case is that the field strength G be globally defined on S1 or T 5 and properly transforming under ZZ2. We solve for general G that satisfies these requirements and expl...
