Infra-red dynamics of D1-branes at the conifold
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the infra-red dynamics of D1-branes at the conifold. We show using methods developed to study the infra-red dynamics of (4, 4) theories, the infra-red degrees of freedom of the (2, 2) theory of a single D1-brane at the conifold is that of a linear dilaton with background charge of √ 2 and a compact scalar. The gauge theory of N D1-branes at the conifold is used to formulate the matrix string in the conifold background. [email protected]

The holographic dual of AdS 3 × S 3 × S 3 × S 1
We construct the two dimensional N = (0, 4) gauge theory that lives on the world volume of D1-branes and intersecting D5-branes. We conjecture that this theory flows in the infra-red to a fixed point with large N = (4, 4) superconformal symmetry. The central charge of the conformal field theory is shown to coincide with the holographic dual of string theory compactified on AdS3 × S × S × S.
متن کاملEffective Supergravity Actions for Conifold Transitions ∗
We construct gauged supergravity actions which describe the dynamics of M-theory on a Calabi-Yau threefold in the vicinity of a conifold transition. The actions explicitly include N charged hypermultiplets descending from wrapped M2-branes which become massless at the conifold point. While the vector multiplet sector can be treated exactly, we approximate the hypermultiplet sector by the non-co...
متن کاملFractional D1-Branes at Finite Temperature
The supergravity dual of N regular and M fractional D1-branes on the cone over the Einstein manifold Q has a naked singularity in the infrared. The supergravity dual of N regular and M fractional D3-branes on the conifold also has such a singularity. Buchel suggested and Gubser et al. have shown that in the D3-brane case, the naked singularity is cloaked by a horizon at a sufficiently high temp...
متن کاملGeometric Transition, Large N Dualities and MQCD Dynamics
We study Vafa’s geometric transition from a brane setup in M-theory. In this transition D5 branes wrapped on P cycles of a resolved conifold disappear and are replaced by fluxes on a deformed conifold. In the limit of small sized P, we describe this mechanism as a transition from curved M5 branes to plane M5 branes which replaces SU(N) MQCD by U(1) theories on the bulk. This agrees with the res...
متن کاملq-Deformed Oscillators and D-branes on Conifold
We study the q-deformed oscillator algebra acting on the wavefunctions of non-compact D-branes in the topological string on conifold. We find that the mirror B-model curve of conifold appears from the commutation relation of the q-deformed oscillators.
