Topological Amplitudes in String Theory
We show that certain type II string amplitudes at genus g are given by the topologi-cal partition function F g discussed recently by Bershadsky, Cecotti, Ooguri and Vafa. These amplitudes give rise to a term in the four-dimensional effective action of the form g F g W 2g , where W is the chiral superfield of N = 2 supergravitational multi-plet. The holomorphic anomaly of F g is related to non-l...
متن کاملBIons in topological string theory
When many fundamental strings are stacked together, they puff up into D-branes. BIons and giant gravitons are the examples of such D-brane configurations that arise from coincident strings. We propose and demonstrate analogous transitions in topological string theory. takuya at kitp.ucsb.edu
متن کاملDEVELOPMENT IN STRING THEORY
The string theory is a fast moving subject, both physics wise and in the respect of mathematics. In order to keep up with the discipline it is important to move with new ideas which are being stressed. Here I wish to give extracts from new papers of ideas which I have recently found interesting. There are six papers which are involved: I ."Strings formulated directly in 4 dimensions " A. N...
متن کاملOn Topological 2D String and Intersection Theory
The topological description of 2D string theory at the self-dual radius is studied in the algebro-geometrical formulation of the Ak+1 topological models at k = −3. Genus zero correlators of tachyons and their gravitational descendants are computed as intersection numbers on moduli space and compared to 2D string results. The interpretation of negative momentum tachyons as gravitational descenda...
متن کاملM-theory and a Topological String Duality
We show how the topological string partition function, which is known to capture the degeneracies of a gas of BPS spinning M2-branes in M-theory compactified to 5 dimensions, is related to a 4-dimensional D-brane system that consists of single D6-brane bound to lower-dimensional branes. This system is described by a topologically twisted U(1) gauge theory, that has been conjecturally identified...
