Monads and D-instantons
نویسنده
چکیده
Motivated by twisted N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in 4 dimensions, a natural extension of the monad (ADHM) construction relevant to D-instantons is considered. We show that a family of Yang-Mills instantons can be constructed from D-instantons. We discuss some possible roles of reciprocity in D-brane physics. We conjecture the existence of universal instantons together with a generalized Fourier-Nahm transformation as an unifying framework of D-brane physics.

Leibniz’s Monads and Mulla Sadra’s Hierarchy of Being: A Comparative Study
Mulla Sadra and Leibniz, the two philosophers from the East and the West, belong to two different worlds. Though they were unaware of the ideas of each other, their philosophical systems share certain common points that are comparable. Monads constitute the basis of Leibniz's thought and he refers to their features in his various works. On the other side, Mulla Sadra's philosophy is also based ...

It is also possible to define monads in terms of two other operations, map : (D → E) → M(D) → M(E) and join : M(M(D))→M(D). This is often the approach taken in category theory, but the definitions are equivalent. We use the notation [σ] to denote unit(σ), and the notation f∗(m) to denote bind(f)(m). Monads figure heavily in the programming language Haskell, which uses monads as a way to introdu...
متن کامل(Non-)BPS bound states and D-brane instantons
We study superpotential corrections due to decaying BPS D-brane instantons in four-dimensional N = 1 supersymmetric orientifold compactifications. The relevant objects are certain D-brane instantons which are not invariant under the orientifold projection. We show that they can yield superpotential contributions via a multi-instanton process on the BPS locus. This configuration decays in other ...
متن کاملDo Instantons of the Cp(n-1) Model Melt?
In the two-dimensional CP N−1 model one can parametrize exact many-instanton solutions via N 'constituents' (called 'zindons'). This parameterization allows, in principle, a complete 'melting' of individual instantons. The model is therefore well suited to study whether dynamics prefers a dilute or a strongly overlapping ensemble of instantons. We study the statistical mechanics of instantons b...
متن کاملApplications of the Kleisli and Eilenberg-Moore 2-adjunctions
In 2010, J. Climent Vidal and J. Soliveres Tur developed, among other things, a pair of 2-adjunctions between the 2-category of adjunctions and the 2-category of monads. One is related to the Kleisli adjunction and the other to the Eilenberg-Moore adjunction for a given monad.Since any 2-adjunction induces certain natural isomorphisms of categories, these can be used to classify bijection...
