Mirror Symmetry as a Gauge Symmetry
It is shown that in string theory mirror duality is a gauge symmetry (a Weyl transformation) in the moduli space of N = 2 backgrounds on group manifolds, and we conjecture on the possible generalization to other backgrounds, such as CalabiYau manifolds. e-mail address: [email protected] e-mail address: [email protected]
متن کاملCalabi–Yau mirror symmetry as a gauge theory duality
Using brane set-ups we construct dual gauge theories in two dimensions with N = (2, 2) supersymmetry. Two different dualities are realized. One is basically a consequence of three-dimensional mirror symmetry. The nonlinear sigma model with a Calabi–Yau target space on the Higgs branch of the gauge theory is mapped into an equivalent non-linear sigma model on the Coulomb branch on the dual, real...
متن کاملOn gauge/string correspondence and mirror symmetry
We consider a mirror dual of the Berkovits-Vafa A-model for the BPS superstring on AdS5 × S 5 in the form of a deformed superconifold. Via geometric transition, the theory has a dual description as the hermitian gaussian one-matrix model. We show that the A-model amplitudes of AdS2 × S 4 branes, breaking the superconformal symmetry as U(2, 2|4) → OSp(4∗|4), are evaluated in terms of observables...
متن کاملLog Mirror Symmetry and Local Mirror Symmetry
We study Mirror Symmetry of log Calabi-Yau surfaces. On one hand, we consider the number of “affine lines” of each degree in P\B, where B is a smooth cubic. On the other hand, we consider coefficients of a certain expansion of a function obtained from the integrals of dx/x ∧ dy/y over 2chains whose boundaries lie on Bφ, where {Bφ} is a family of smooth cubics. Then, for small degrees, they coin...
متن کاملAxial-Vector Duality as a Mirror Symmetry
We study N = 2 supersymmetric SU(2)/U(1) and SL(2, R)/U(1) gauged WessZumino-Witten models. It is shown that the vector gauged model is transformed to the axial gauged model by a mirror transformation. Therefore the vector gauged model and the axial gauged model are equivalent as N = (2, 2) superconformal field theories. In the SL(2, R)/U(1) model, it is known that axial-vector duality relates ...
