Gauge Fields and D-branes
We prove that self-dual gauge fields in type I superstring theory are equivalent to configurations of Dirichlet 5-branes, by showing that the world-sheet theory of a Dirichlet 1-brane moving in a background of 5-branes includes an " ADHM sigma model. " This provides an explicit construction of the equivalent self-dual gauge field.
متن کاملDuality symmetry and the form fields of M-theory
In previous work we derived the topological terms in the M-theory action in terms of certain characters that we defined. In this paper, we propose the extention of these characters to include the dual fields. The unified treatment of the M-theory four-form field strength and its dual leads to several observations. In particular we elaborate on the possibility of a twisted cohomology theory with...
متن کاملDuality-symmetry and the form-fields in M-theory
In previous work we derived the topological terms in the M-theory action in terms of certain characters that we defined. In this paper, we extend these characters to include the dual fields and to account for their dynamics. We start investigating the existence of a relation of this to various generalized cohomology theories by utilizing the Bott-like elements and forming homogeneous degree com...
متن کاملExotic tensor gauge theory and Duality
Gauge fields in exotic representations of the Lorentz group in D dimensions – i.e. ones which are tensors of mixed symmetry corresponding to Young tableaux with arbitrary numbers of rows and columns – naturally arise through massive string modes and in dualising gravity and other theories in higher dimensions. We generalise the formalism of differential forms to allow the discussion of arbitrar...
متن کاملBranes, Anti-Branes and Brauer Algebras in Gauge-Gravity duality
We propose gauge theory operators built using a complex Matrix scalar which are dual to brane-anti-brane systems in AdS5 × S , in the zero coupling limit of the dual Yang-Mills. The branes involved are half-BPS giant gravitons. The proposed operators dual to giant-anti-giant configurations satisfy the appropriate orthogonality properties. Projection operators in Brauer algebras are used to cons...
