Vector Deformations of N = 4 Super - Yang - Mills Theory , Pinned Branes , and Arched Strings

چکیده
We study a deformation of N = 4 Super-Yang-Mills theory by a dimension-5 vector operator. There is a simple nonlocal “dipole” field-theory that realizes this deformation. We present evidence that this theory is realized in the setting of “pinned-branes.” The dipoles correspond to open strings that arch out of the brane. We find the gravitational dual of the theory at large N . We also discuss the generalization to the (2, 0) theory.

Mesons in marginally deformed AdS/CFT
We study the embedding of spacetime filling D7–branes in β–deformed backgrounds which, according to the AdS/CFT dictionary, corresponds to flavoring β–deformed N = 4 super Yang–Mills. We consider supersymmetric and more general non–supersymmetric three parameter deformations. The equations of motion for quadratic fluctuations of a probe D7–brane wrapped on a deformed three–sphere exhibit a non–...
متن کاملLocalized modes at a D-brane–O-plane intersection and heterotic Alice strings
We study a system of Nc D3-branes intersecting D7-branes and O7-planes in 1 + 1-dimensions. We use anomaly cancellation and string dualities to argue that there must be chiral fermion zero-modes on the D3-branes which are localized near the O7planes. Away from the orientifold limit we verify this by using index theory as well as explicit construction of the zero-modes. This system is related to...
متن کاملNon-linear Yang–Mills instantons from strings are π-stable D-branes
We show that B-type Π-stable D-branes do not in general reduce to the (Gieseker-) stable holomorphic vector bundles used in mathematics to construct moduli spaces. We show that solutions of the almost Hermitian Yang–Mills equations for the non-linear deformations of Yang–Mills instantons that appear in the low-energy geometric limit of strings exist iff they are π-stable, a geometric version of...
متن کاملInstantons in Deformed Super Yang-Mills Theories
We study the instanton effective action in deformed four-dimensional N = 2 and N = 4 super Yang-Mills (SYM) theories. These deformed gauge theories are defined on the D-brane world-volume in the presence of constant, self-dual Ramond-Ramond (R-R) 3-form field strength background F which is scaled as (2πα′) 1 2F = fixed in the zero-slope limit α′ → 0. The instanton effective action is obtained b...
متن کاملD0-Branes, Constrained Instantons and D=4 Super Yang-Mills Theories
We consider in more detail the role of D0-branes as instantons in the construction of SU(N) Super Yang-Mills and Super QCD theories in four space-time dimensions with D4, D6 and NS-branes. In particular, we show how the D0-branes describe both the exact and constrained instantons and reproduce the correct pattern of lifting of zero modes on the various branches of these models.
