Gerbes and Massive Type II Configurations
نویسنده
چکیده
We find novel bound states of NS5, D6 and D8-branes in massive type IIA string theory. As the NS gauge transformations can change the Chern class of the RR field these configurations should be thought of as nonlocal objects called gerbes. We develop a global formalism for theories that involve massive tensor fields in general, and apply it in massive type IIA supergravity. We investigate the T-dual NS5/D5-brane configurations in type IIB, and relate them to an F-theory compactification on Calabi–Yau three-fold. We comment on the implications to consistency conditions for brane-wrapping and the classification of D-brane charges in terms of K-theory classes.

متن کاملDiscrete Torsion and Gerbes I Eric
In this technical note we give a purely geometric understanding of discrete torsion, as an analogue of orbifold Wilson lines for two-form tensor field potentials. In order to introduce discrete torsion in this context, we describe gerbes and the description of certain type II supergravity tensor field potentials as connections on gerbes. Discrete torsion then naturally appears in describing the...
متن کاملDiscrete Torsion and Gerbes II
In a previous paper we outlined how discrete torsion can be understood geometrically, as an analogue of orbifold U(1) Wilson lines. In this paper we shall prove the remaining details. More precisely, in this paper we describe gerbes in terms of objects known as stacks (essentially, sheaves of categories), and develop much of the basic theory of gerbes in such language. Then, once the relevant t...
متن کاملGerbes and Abelian Motives
Assuming the Hodge conjecture for abelian varieties of CM-type, one obtains a good category of abelian motives over Fal p and a reduction functor to it from the category of CM-motives over Qal. Consequently, one obtains a morphism of gerbes of fibre functors with certain properties. We prove unconditionally that there exists a morphism of gerbes with these properties, and we classify them.
متن کاملVarious Dosages of BMP-2 for Management of Massive Bone Defect in Sprague Dawley Rat
Introduction: The use of BMP-2 plays an important role in the treatment of extensive bone defect. However, data about the optimal dosage of BMP-2 in the massive bone defect cases is rare. Material and Method: Twenty-five SD rats were randomly divided into a control group ofhydroxyapatite (HA) alone (Group I), HA+BMP-2 1µg/mL (Group II), HA+BMP-2 5 ug/mL (Group III), HA+BMP-2 10 µg/mL (Gro...
