Quiver Chern-Simons theories and crystals
We consider N = 2 quiver Chern-Simons theories described by brane tilings, whose moduli spaces are toric Calabi-Yau 4-folds. Simple prescriptions to obtain toric data of the moduli space and a corresponding brane crystal from a brane tiling are proposed. ∗ E-mail: [email protected] † E-mail: [email protected]
متن کاملModuli spaces of Chern-Simons quiver gauge theories
We analyse the classical moduli spaces of supersymmetric vacua of 3d N = 2 Chern-Simons quiver gauge theories. We show quite generally that the moduli space of the 3d theory always contains a baryonic branch of a parent 4d N = 1 quiver gauge theory, where the 4d baryonic branch is determined by the vector of 3d Chern-Simons levels. In particular, starting with a 4d quiver theory dual to a 3-fol...
متن کاملChern - Simons Forms , Mickelsson - Faddeev Algebras and the P - Branes
In string theory, nilpotence of the BRS operator δ for the string functional relates the Chern-Simons term in the gauge-invariant antisymmetric tensor field strength to the central term in the Kac-Moody algebra. We generalize these ideas to p-branes with odd p and find that the Kac-Moody algebra for the string becomes the Mickelsson-Faddeev algebra for the p-brane.
متن کاملChern-Simons Supersymmetric Branes
The purpose of this Letter is to continue the study of the class of models proposed in the previous paper [1] hep-th/0002077. The model corresponds to a system of branes of diverse dimensionalities with ChernSimons actions for a supergroup, embedded in a background described also by a Chern-Simons action. The model treats the background and the branes on an equal footing, providing a ’brane-tar...
متن کاملChern-Simons Gauge Theories
We derive the general form for a three-dimensional scale-invariant field theory with N = 6 supersymmetry, SU(4) R-symmetry and a U(1) global symmetry. The results can be written in terms of a 3-algebra in which the triple product is not antisymmetric. For a specific choice of 3-algebra we obtain the N = 6 theories that have been recently proposed as models for M2-branes in an R/Zk orbifold back...
