Geometrical Analysis of Brane Creation via M-Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-30 v1

Abstract

A geometrical analysis is given of Dirichlet fourbrane creation, when sixbrane crosses fivebrane in M-theory. A special property of the Taub-NUT space leads to the consequence. When brane configurations are considered for four dimensional N=2 field theories, sixbrane contributes to the beta-function through the Dirac string of the Taub-NUT space.
