چکیده
Making use of the N = 2 Liouville theory and world-sheet techniques, we study the properties of D-branes wrapped around vanishing SUSY cycles of singular Calabi-Yau n-folds (n = 2, 3, 4). After constructing boundary states describing the wrapped branes, we evaluate the disc amplitudes corresponding to the periods of SUSY cycles. We use the old technique of KPZ scaling in Liouville theory and derive holomorphicity and scaling behavior of vanishing cycles which are in agreement with geometrical considerations. We also discuss the open string Witten index using the N = 2 Liouville theory and obtain the intersection numbers among SUSY cycles which also agree with geometrical expectation.

متن کاملConifold Type Singularities,
In this paper we discuss various aspects of non-compact models of CFT of the type: ∏NL j=1{N = 2 Liouville theory}j ⊗ ∏NM i=1{N = 2 minimal model}i and ∏NL j=1{SL(2;R)/U(1) supercoset}j⊗ ∏NM i=1 {N = 2 minimal model}i. These models are related to each other by T-duality. Such string vacua are expected to describe non-compact Calabi-Yau compactifications, typically ALE fibrations over (weighted)...
متن کاملModular Bootstrap for Boundary N = 2 Liouville Theory
We study the boundary N = 2 Liouville theory based on the “modular bootstrap” approach. As fundamental conformal blocks we introduce the “extended characters” that are defined as the proper sums over spectral flows of irreducible characters of the N = 2 superconformal algebra (SCA) and clarify their modular transformation properties in models with rational central charges. We then try to classi...
