Worldsheet Derivation of a Large N Duality
We give a worldsheet proof of the equivalence between the U(N) Chern-Simons gauge theory on S and the topological closed string theory on the resolved conifold geometry. When the ‘t Hooft coupling of the gauge theory is small, the dual closed string worldsheet develops a new branch. We show that the fluctuations of the worldsheet into this branch effectively correspond to “holes” on the worldsh...
متن کاملOn the Worldsheet Derivation of Large N Dualities for the Superstring
Large N topological string dualities have led to a class of proposed open/closed dual-ities for superstrings. In the topological string context, the worldsheet derivation of these dualities has already been given. In this paper we take the first step in deriving the full ten-dimensional superstring dualities by showing how the dualities arise on the superstring worldsheet at the level of F term...
متن کاملTowards a Worldsheet Derivation of the Maldacena Conjecture
A U(2, 2|4)-invariant A-model constructed from fermionic superfields has recently been proposed as a sigma model for the superstring onAdS5×S. After explaining the relation of this A-model with the pure spinor formalism, the A-model action is expressed as a gauged linear sigma model. In the zero radius limit, the Coulomb branch of this sigma model is interpreted as D-brane holes which are relat...
متن کاملNS5-Branes, T-Duality and Worldsheet Instantons
The equivalence of NS5-branes and ALF spaces under T-duality is well known. However, a naive application of T-duality transforms the ALF space into a smeared NS5-brane, de-localized on the dual, transverse, circle. In this paper we re-examine this duality, starting from a two-dimensional N = (4, 4) gauged linear sigma model describing Taub-NUT space. After dualizing the S fiber, we find that th...
متن کاملMorita Duality and Large - N Limits
We study some dynamical aspects of gauge theories on noncommutative tori. We show that Morita duality, combined with the hypothesis of analyticity as a function of the non-commutativity parameter Θ, gives information about singular large-N limits of ordinary U (N) gauge theories, where the large-rank limit is correlated with the shrinking of a two-torus to zero size. We study some non-perturbat...
