A Stringy Test of the Fate of the Conifold

چکیده

By studying string loop corrections to superpotential of type II strings compactified on Calabi-Yau threefolds we find a quantum stringy test and a confirmation of a recent proposal of Strominger on the fate of the conifold singularity. We also propose a connection between the spectrum of Bogomolnyi saturated solitons and one-loop string partition function of N = 2 topological strings.

Prepotentials, Bi-linear Forms on Periods and Enhanced Gauge Symmetries in Type-II Strings

We construct a bi-linear form on the periods of Calabi-Yau spaces. These are used to obtain the prepotentials around conifold singularities in type-II strings compactified on Calabi-Yau space. The explicit construction of the bi-linear forms is achieved for the onemoduli models as well as two moduli models with K3-fibrations where the enhanced gauge symmetry is known to be observed at conifold ...

Volume Stabilization via α Corrections in Type IIB Theory with Fluxes

We consider the Type IIB string theory in the presence of various extra 7/7-brane pairs compactified on a warped Calabi-Yau threefold that admits a conifold singularity. We demonstrate that the volume modulus can be stabilized perturbatively at a nonsupersymmetric AdS4/dS4 vacuum by the effective potential that includes the stringy (α) correction obtained by Becker et al. together with a combin...

AN INDEX REPRESENTING STRUCTURE-CATABOLIC FATE RELATIONSHIPS OF AMINO ACIDS

Based on the Randic suggestion of the resolution of a structure into shape, size, and function an index representing structure-catabolic fate relationships of amino acids is constructed. The index obtained by multiplying three factors; (nb2 + nr), nc and M; representing shape, size and function respectively, where nb2 = number of double bonds, nr = number of rings, nc = number of carbon atoms, ...

This study, based on library studies and written in a descriptive-analytical manner,The researcher examine comparatively the topics of "fate" and "unity of existence" in Masnavi Molavi and Masnavies of Sulan valad (Ebtedaname, Robabname and Entehaname). The results show that Fate is one of the most basic teachings of Maulana and Sultan valad. From their point of view, unless the mystic reach th...

On the thermodynamic instability of LST

The high energy thermodynamics of Little String Theory (LST) is known to be unstable. An unresolved question is whether the corresponding instability in LST holographic dual is of stringy or supergravity origin. We study UV thermodynamics of a large metric deformation of the LST dual realized (in the extremal case) by type IIB fivebranes wrapping a two-sphere of a resolved conifold, and demonst...
