C2/Zn Fractional branes and Monodromy
نویسنده
چکیده
We construct geometric representatives for the C/Zn fractional branes in terms of branes wrapping certain exceptional cycles of the resolution. In the process we use large radius and conifold-type monodromies, and also check some of the orbifold quantum symmetries. We find the explicit Seiberg-duality which connects our fractional branes to the ones given by the McKay correspondence. We also comment on the Harvey-Moore BPS algebras. [email protected]

String Creation and Monodromy from Fractional D-branes on ALE spaces
We investigate the anomalous creation of fundamental strings using the boundary state formalism of fractional D-branes on ALE spaces in the orbifold limit. The open string Witten index plays a crucial role in this calculation and so the result remains unchanged even if we blow up the orbifold geometrically, matching the anomaly inflow argument. Further we consider the quiver gauge theories on s...
متن کامل/z N Fractional Branes and Monodromy
We construct geometric representatives for the C 2 /Z n fractional branes in terms of branes wrapping certain exceptional cycles of the resolution. In the process we use large radius and conifold-type monodromies, and also check some of the orbifold quantum symmetries. We find the explicit Seiberg-duality, in the Berenstein-Douglas sense, which connects our fractional branes to the ones given b...
متن کاملEvolution of D - branes Under Closed String Tachyon Condensation
We study the evolution of stable D-branes of C/Zn and twisted circle theories in the process of closed string tachyon condensation. We interpret the fractional branes in these backgrounds as type II branes wrapping (‘blown up’) cycles, and trace the evolution of the corresponding cycles under tachyon condensation. We also study RG flows of the corresponding N = 2 boundary conformal field theori...
متن کاملSeiberg’s Duality from Monodromy of Conifold Singularity
Duality between N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories(Seiberg’s duality) is geometrized, in the framework of AdS/CFT correspondences. It is shown that Seiberg’s duality corresponds to monodromy of wrapped D5 branes on the homology cycles of a generalized conifold where D3 branes are located. The celebrated Ñc = Nf −Nc, Ñf = Nf rule is reproduced and a braid group structure in a sequence of dualitie...
متن کاملD-branes in Melvin Background
In this paper we discuss D-branes in the Melvin background and its supersymmetric generalizations. In particular we determine the D-brane spectra in these backgrounds by constructing their boundary states explicitly, where some of the D-branes are supersymmetric. The results sensitively depend on whether the value of magnetic flux in the Melvin background is rational or irrational. For the rati...
