D-Instantons and asymptotic geometries
The large N limit of D3-branes is expected to correspond to a superconformal field theory living on the boundary of the anti-de Sitter space appearing in the near-horizon geometry. Dualizing the D3-brane to a D-instanton, we show that this limit is equivalent to a type IIB S-duality. In both cases one effectively reaches the near-horizon geometry. This provides an alternative approach to an ear...
متن کاملConformal Flatness and Self-duality of Thurston-geometries
We show which Thurston-geometries in dimensions 3 and 4 admit invariant conformally flat or half-conformally flat metrics. 1. Threeand four-dimensional geometries A geometry in the sense of Thurston is a pair (X, G) where X is a simply connected smooth manifold on which the connected Lie group G acts smoothly in a transitive fashion such that the following hold: (1) the stabilizer of a point is...
متن کاملA Discrete Duality Between Nonmonotonic Consequence Relations and Convex Geometries
In this paper we present a duality between nonmonotonic consequence relations and well-founded convex geometries. On one side of the duality we consider nonmonotonic consequence relations satisfying the axioms of an infinitary variant of System P, which is one of the most studied axiomatic systems for nonmonotonic reasoning, conditional logic and belief revision. On the other side of the dualit...
متن کاملIsoperimetry of waists and local versus global asymptotic convex geometries
If two symmetric convex bodies K and L both have nicely bounded sections, then the intersection of random rotations of K and L is also nicely bounded. For L being a subspace, this main result immediately yields the unexpected “existence vs. prevalence” phenomenon: If K has one nicely bounded section, then most sections of K are nicely bounded. The main result represents a new connection between...
متن کاملA Duality Hopf Algebra for Holomorphic N=1 Special Geometries
We find a self-dual noncommutative and noncocommutative Hopf algebra HF acting as a universal symmetry on the modules over inner Frobenius algebras of modular categories (as used in two dimensional boundary conformal field theory) similar to the GrothendieckTeichmüller groupGT as introduced by Drinfeld as a universal symmetry of quasitriangular quasi-Hopf algebras. We discuss the relationship t...
