Vacuum interpolation in supergravity via super p-branes.

چکیده
We show that many of the recently proposed supersymmetric p-brane solutions of d=10 and d=11 supergravity have the property that they interpolate between Minkowski spacetime and a compactified spacetime, both being supersymmetric supergravity vacua. Our results imply that the effective worldvolume action for small fluctuations of the super p-brane is a supersingleton field theory for (adS) p+2 , as has been often conjectured in the past.

On the Determination of the Dilaton–Antisymmetric Tensor Couplings in Supergravity Theories
A new approach is provided to determine the dilaton–antisymmetric tensor coupling in a supergravity theory by considering the static supersymmetric field configuration around a super extended object, which is consistently formulated in a curved superspace. By this, the corresponding SUSY transformation rules can also be determined for vanishing fermionic fields as well as bosonic fields other t...
متن کاملBranes and Theta Dependence
We use the fivebrane of M theory to study the θ dependence of four dimensional SU(Nc) super Yang-Mills and super QCD softly broken by a gaugino mass. We compute the energy of the vacuum in the supergravity approximation. The results obtained are in qualitative agreement with field theory. We also study the θ dependence of the QCD string tension via the fivebrane.
متن کاملGravity Dual of Superconformal Anomaly
The supergravity dual of superconformal anomaly in a four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theory is investigated. We consider a well-established dual correspondence between the N = 1 SU(N +M) × SU(N) supersymmetric gauge theory with two flavors of matter fields in the bifundamental representation of gauge group and type IIB superstring in the space-time background furnished by the Klebanov-Str...
متن کاملSupergravity Description of Non-BPS Branes
We construct supergravity solutions that correspond to N Dp-branes coinciding with N Dp-branes. We study the physical properties of the solutions and analyse the supergravity description of tachyon condensation. We construct an interpolation between the brane-antibrane solution and the Schwarzschild solution and discuss its possible application to the study of non-supersymmetric black holes. Ma...
متن کاملBranes in the bulk of Anti-de Sitter space
We consider (3 + 1)-dimensional N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory with a nonvanishing scalar Higgs vacuum expectation value, and compare this theory to AdS supergravity with branes in the bulk. We show that the one-loop effective potential for excitations of the Yang-Mills field agrees with the classical linearized potential for brane waves in the AdS picture in the limit of long wavelengths. This ...
