Given a (smooth) action of a Lie group G on Rd we construct a DGA whose Maurer-Cartan elements are in one to one correspondence with some class of defomations of the (induced) G-action on the ring of formal power series with coefficients in…
We review the correspondence between effective actions resulting from non-invariant Lagrangian densities, for Goldstone bosons arising from spontaneous breakdown of a symmetry group G to a subgroup H, and non-trivial generators of the de…
The aim of this paper is two-fold: Firstly, we prove Toda's $\chi$-independence conjecture for Gopakumar--Vafa invariants of arbitrary local curves. Secondly, following Davison's work, we introduce the BPS cohomology for moduli spaces of…
We derive the noncommutative Dirac-Born-Infeld action for the $D$-brane, which governs dynamics of $D$-brane with a NS-NS $B$-field in the low energy regime. Depending on some details of the path integral prescriptions, both ordinary…
We consider a supersymmetric extension of the SL(2;Z)-covariant D3-brane action proposed by Nurmagambetov, and prove its kappa-symmetry in an on-shell type-IIB supergravity background.
We produce an equality between the Gromov-Witten invariants of the moduli space M of rank two odd degree stable vector bundles over a Riemann surface $\Sigma$ and the Donaldson invariants of the algebraic surface $\Sigma \times P^1$. We…
We show that each rigid symmetry of a D-string action is contained in a family of infinitely many symmetries. In particular, kappa-invariant D-string actions have infinitely many supersymmetries. The result is not restricted to standard…
We construct an action for NSNS 5-branes which is manifestly covariant under O(d,d). This is done by doubling $d$ of the spacetime coordinates which appear in the worldvolume action. By formulating the DBI part of the action in a manner…
We study D-modules and related invariants on the space of 2 x 2 x n hypermatrices for n >= 3, which has finitely many orbits under the action of G = GL_2 x GL_2 x GL_n. We describe the category of coherent G-equivariant D-modules as the…
We introduce coG_2-vector fields, coRochesterian 2-forms and coRochesterian vector fields on manifolds with a coclosed G_2-structure as a continuous of work from [15], and we show that the spaces of coG_2-vector fields and of coRochesterian…
Let $M$ denote the vector space of $2 \times 2$ matrices with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_3$ and trace zero. Let $G = SL_2(\mathbb{F}_3)$. Then $G$ acts on $M$ via conjugation. Let $R =(S(M^*) \otimes \Lambda(M^*))$ be the algebra of…
We have constructed a complete action for the system of N D0-branes in flat 10D type IIA superspace. It is invariant under the rigid spacetime supersymmetry and local worldline supersymmetry ($\kappa$-symmetry). This latter can be…
Based on a pair of cohomology operations on so called $\delta-2$-formal spaces, we construct the integral cohomology rings of the classifying spaces of the Lie groups $Spin(n)$ and $Spin^{c}(n)$. As applications, we introduce characteristic…
In previous work, we used new mathematical relations between Gopakumar-Vafa (GV) invariants and rank 0 Donaldson-Thomas (DT) invariants to determine the first few terms in the generating series of Abelian D4-D2-D0 indices for a class of…
We study the topology of the moduli space of flat SU(2)-bundles over a nonorientable surface X. This moduli space may be identified with the space of homomorphisms Hom(\pi_1(X),SU(2)) modulo conjugation by SU(2). In particular, we compute…
We derive the complete covariant action for the type IIA superstring in a simple D=10 background which represents a 7-brane with a magnetic Ramond-Ramond vector field (and is U-dual to the Kaluza-Klein Melvin solution). This curved…
Heterotic string compactifications on integrable $G_2$ structure manifolds $Y$ with instanton bundles $(V,A), (TY,\tilde{\theta})$ yield supersymmetric three-dimensional vacua that are of interest in physics. In this paper, we define a…
We give a general construction of extended moduli spaces of topological D-branes as non-commutative algebraic varieties. This shows that noncommutative symplectic geometry in the sense of Kontsevich arises naturally in String Theory.
Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group acting on a space $X$, let $\mu$ be a compactly supported measure on $G$, and let $A$ be a strongly irreducible linear cocycle over the action of $G$. We then have a random walk on $X$, and let $T$ be the…
We consider the field theory on non-commutative superspace and non-commutative spacetime that arises on D-branes in Type II superstring theory with a constant self-dual graviphoton and NS-NS $B$ field background. $\N=1$ supersymmetric field…
