Intersecting Noncommutative D-branes and Baryons in Magnetic Fields
We study supersymmetric intersecting configurations of D-branes with B-field backgrounds. Noncommutative D-brane or M-brane pairs can intersect supersymmetrically over (p − 1)-brane, as well as over (p − 2)brane like ordinary branes. d = 10 and d = 11 supergravity solutions are obtained and the supersymmetry projection rule is examined. As an application we study a noncommutative D7-brane probe...
متن کاملMagnetic Backgrounds from Generalised Complex Manifolds
The magnetic backgrounds that physically give rise to spacetime noncommutativity are generally treated using noncommutative geometry. In this article we prove that also the theory of generalised complex manifolds contains the necessary elements to generate B–fields geometrically. As an example, the Poisson brackets of the Landau model (electric charges on a plane subject to an external, perperd...
متن کاملSpace-Time Noncommutative Field Theories And Unitarity
We study the perturbative unitarity of noncommutative scalar field theories. Field theories with space-time noncommutativity do not have a unitary S-matrix. Field theories with only space noncommutativity are perturbatively unitary. This can be understood from string theory, since space noncommutative field theories describe a low energy limit of string theory in a background magnetic field. On...
متن کاملNoncommutative Geometry and Matrix Theory: Compactification on Tori
We study toroidal compactification of Matrix theory, using ideas and results of noncommutative geometry. We generalize this to compactification on the noncommutative torus, explain the classification of these backgrounds, and argue that they correspond in supergravity to tori with constant background three-form tensor field. The paper includes an introduction for mathematicians to the IKKT form...
متن کاملComments on Noncommutative Open String Theory: V-duality and Holography
In this paper we study the interplay of electric and magnetic backgrounds in determining the decoupling limit of coincident D-branes towards a noncommutative Yang-Mills (NCYM) or open string (NCOS) theory. No decoupling limit has been found for NCYM with space-time noncommutativity. It is suggested that there is a new duality, which we call V-duality, which acts on NCOS with both space-space an...
