Topological Partition Function and String-String Duality
The evidence for string/string-duality can be extended from the matching of the vector couplings to gravitational couplings. In this note this is shown in the rank three example, the closest stringy analog of the Seiberg/Witten-setup, which is related to the Calabi-Yau WP 4 1,1,2,2,6(12). I provide an exact analytical verification of a relation checked by coefficient comparison to fourth order ...
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...
متن کاملPolynomial Structure of the (Open) Topological String Partition Function
In this paper we show that the polynomial structure of the topological string partition function found by Yamaguchi and Yau for the quintic holds for an arbitrary Calabi-Yau manifold with any number of moduli. Furthermore, we generalize these results to the open topological string partition function as discussed recently by Walcher and reproduce his results for the real quintic.
متن کاملTopological String Partition Functions as Equivariant Indices
In this work we exploit the relationship with certain equivariant genera of isntanton moduli spaces to study the string partition functions of some local Calabi-Yau geometries, in particular, the Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture for them [8]. Gromov-Witten invariants are in general rational numbers. However as conjectured by Gopakumar and Vafa [8] using M-theory, the generating series of GromovWitten ...
متن کاملTopological String Partition Functions as Polynomials
We investigate the structure of the higher genus topological string amplitudes on the quintic hypersurface. It is shown that the partition functions of the higher genus than one can be expressed as polynomials of five generators. We also compute the explicit polynomial forms of the partition functions for genus 2, 3, and 4. Moreover, some coefficients are written down for all genus.
