چکیده

In this article we examine some points in the moduli space of M-Theory at which there arise enhanced gauge symmetries. In particular, we examine the “trivial” points of enhanced gauge symmetry in the moduli space of M-Theory on S × S1/Z2 as well as the points of enhanced gauge symmetry in the moduli space of M-Theory on K3 and those in the moduli space of M-Theory on T 5/Z2 × S. Also, we employ the above enhanced gauge symmetries to derive the existence of some points of enhanced gauge symmetry in the moduli space of the Type IIA string theory.

نظریه میدان ناجابه‌جایی و پارامترهای نقض لورنتس در QED

Non-commutative field theory as a theory including the Lorentz violation can be constructed in two different ways. In the first method, the non-commutative fields are the same as the ordinary ones while the gauge group is restricted to U(n). For example, the symmetry group of standard model in non-commutative space is U(3)×(2)×U(1) which can be reduced to SU(3)×SU(2)×U(1) by two appropriate spo...

Enhanced Gauge Symmetry in M(atrix) Theory

We discuss the origin of enhanced gauge symmetry in ALE (and K3) compactification of M theory, either defined as the strong coupling limit of the type IIa superstring, or as defined by Banks et al. In the D-brane formalism, wrapped membranes are D0 branes with twisted string boundary conditions, and appear on the same footing with the Kaluza-Klein excitations of the gauge bosons. In M(atrix) th...

Enhanced gauge symmetry and braid group actions

Enhanced gauge symmetry appears in Type II string theory (as well as Fand M-theory) compactified on Calabi–Yau manifolds containing exceptional divisors meeting in Dynkin configurations. It is shown that in many such cases, at enhanced symmetry points in moduli a braid group acts on the derived category of sheaves of the variety. This braid group covers the Weyl group of the enhanced symmetry a...

An Ab initio and chemical shielding tensors calculations for Nucleotide 5’-Monophosphates in the Gas phase

Structural and magnetic properties of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides (CMP, UMP, dTMP, AMP, GMP, IMP) were studied at different levels of ab initio molecular orbital theory. These calculations were performed at the hartree-fock level and density functional B3LYP methods. Geometries were fully optimized by following Cs symmetry restrictions. The standard 6-31G** basis set which includes polari...

Enhanced Gauge Symmetries in Superstring Theories

Certain four-dimensional N = 4 supersymmetric theories have special vacua in which massive charged vector supermultiplets become massless, resulting in an enhanced non-abelian gauge symmetry. We show here that any two N = 4 theories having the same Bogomolnyi spectrum at corresponding points of their moduli spaces have the same enhanced symmetry groups. In particular, the K 3 × T 2 compactified...
