D-Branes on a gauged WZW model
نویسنده
چکیده
The algebraic classification of Cardy for boundary states on a G/H coset CFT of a compact group G, is geometrically realized on the corresponding manifold resulting from gauging the WZW model. The branes consist of H orbits of quantized G conjugacy classes shifted by quantized H conjugacy classes.

Orientifolds of SU (2)/U (1) WZW Models
The orientifolds of SU(2)/U(1) gauged WZW models are investigated. Recently, the D-branes in SU(2)/U(1) WZW models were investigated by Maldacena, Moore and Seiberg and they determined the geometry of the branes. They also constructed new types of D-branes other than so called Cardy type branes. In this paper we identify the geometry of the orientifolds and construct new types of orientifolds b...
متن کاملD-branes in 2D Lorentzian Black Hole
We study D-branes in the Lorentzian signature 2D black hole in string theory. We use the technique of gauged WZW models to construct the associated boundary conformal field theories. The main focus of this work is to discuss the (semi-classical) world-volume geometries of the D-branes. We discuss comparison of our work with results in related gauged WZWmodels.
متن کاملDefects in Chern-Simons theory, gauged WZW models on the brane, and level-rank duality
We consider Hanany-Witten setups of 3and 5-branes in type IIB string theory that realize N = (1, 0), (2, 0) and (1, 1) gauged WZW models in 1 + 1 dimensions. The gauged WZW models arise as theories residing on the boundary of D3 branes ending on D5 branes. From the point of view of low energy dynamics the D5 branes play the role of half-BPS co-dimension-1 defects (domain walls) in 3d N = 1 or N...
متن کاملBrane Partons and Singleton Strings
We examine p-branes in AdSD in two limits where they exhibit partonic behavior: rotating branes with energy concentrated to cusp-like solitons; tensionless branes with energy distributed over singletonic bits on the Dirac hypercone. Evidence for a smooth transition from cusps to bits are found. First, each cusp yields D−2 normal-coordinate bound states with protected frequencies; and is dual to...
متن کاملA Mathematical Formalism for the Kondo Effect in Wzw Branes
The goal of this paper is to give a mathematical treatment of the theory of WZW D-branes. In particular, we investigate here how successful the formalism developed in [9] is in capturing the WZW D-brane picture. The theory of WZW branes has several components and has been previously worked out quite satisfactorily physically (see e.g. [5, 1, 2, 15, 7, 11, 12]). The answer is that stable D-brane...
