U-duality from Matrix Membrane Partition Function
We analyse supermembrane instantons (fully wrapped supermembranes) by computing the partition function of the three-dimensional supersymmetrical U(N) matrix model under periodic boundary conditions. By mapping the model to a cohomological field theory and considering a mass-deformation of the model, we show that the partition function exactly leads to the U-duality invariant measure factor ente...
متن کاملU–Duality Symmetries from the Membrane Worldvolume
We study U–duality symmetries of toroidally compactified M theory from the membrane worldvolume point of view. This is done taking the most general set of bosonic background fields into account. Upon restriction to pure moduli backgrounds, we are able to find the correct U–duality groups and moduli coset parameterizations for dimensions D > 6 as symmetries of the membrane worldvolume theory. In...
متن کاملTopological 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 کاملU-duality Between NCOS Theory and Matrix Theory
We show that the NCOS (noncommutative open string) theories on torus T p (p ≤ 5) are U-dual to matrix theory on torus with electric flux background. Under U-duality, the number of D-branes and the number of units of electric flux get interchanged. Furthermore under the same U-duality the decoupling limit taken in the NCOS theory maps to the decoupling limit taken in the matrix theory, thus ensu...
متن کاملMatrix Theory and U-duality in Seven Dimensions
We demonstrate the emergence of the U-duality group in compactification of Matrix theory on a 4-torus. The discussion involves non-trivial effects in strongly coupled 4+1 dimensional gauge theory, and highlights some interesting phenomena in the Matrix theory description of compactified M-theory.
