We discuss aspects of topological B-type D-branes in the framework of the derived category of coherent sheaves on a Calabi-Yau 3-fold X. We analyze the link between massless D-branes and monodromies in the CFT moduli space. A classification…

In this review we study BPS D-branes on Calabi-Yau threefolds. Such D-branes naturally divide into two sets called A-branes and B-branes which are most easily understood from topological field theory. The main aim of this paper is to…

An important subclass of D-branes on a Calabi-Yau manifold, X, are in 1-1 correspondence with objects in D(X), the derived category of coherent sheaves on X. We study the action of the monodromies in Kaehler moduli space on these D-branes.…

We give an overview of recent work on Dirichlet branes on Calabi-Yau threefolds which makes contact with Kontsevich's homological mirror symmetry proposal, proposes a new definition of stability which is appropriate in string theory, and…

We discuss the recent proposal that BPS D-branes in Calabi-Yau compactification of type II string theory are Pi-stable objects in the derived category of coherent sheaves.

We discuss some mathematical conjectures which have come out of the Dirichlet branes in superstring theory, focusing on the case of supersymmetric branes in Calabi-Yau compactification. This has led to the formulation of a notion of…

We show that boundary conditions in topological open string theory on Calabi-Yau manifolds are objects in the derived category of coherent sheaves, as foreseen in the homological mirror symmetry proposal of Kontsevich. Together with…

T. Bridgeland defined the notion of a stability manifold for a triangulated category, motivated by Douglas's work on \Pi-stability for D-branes. We show that the stability manifold of the bounded derived category of the coherent sheaves on…

We investigate the correspondence between existence/stability of BPS states in type II string theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau manifold and BPS solutions of four dimensional N=2 supergravity. Some paradoxes emerge, and we propose a…

We study D-branes on Calabi-Yau manifolds, carrying charges which are torsion elements of the K-theory. Interesting physics ensues when we follow these branes into nongeometrical phases of the compactification. On the level of K-theory, we…

We define a particular class of topological field theories associated to open strings and prove the resulting D-branes and open strings form the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves. This derivation is a variant of some ideas…

This elementary survey article was prepared for a talk at the 2016 Superschool on Derived Categories and D-branes. The goal is to outline an identification of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a Calabi-Yau threefold with…

We explore some aspects of monodromies of D-branes in the Kahler moduli space of Calabi-Yau compactifications. Here a D-brane is viewed as an object of the derived category of coherent sheaves. We compute all the interesting monodromies in…

The D-brane spectrum of a $\Zop_2\times\Zop_2$ Calabi-Yau three-fold orbifold of toroidally compactified Type IIA and Type IIB string theory is analysed systematically. The corresponding K-theory groups are determined and complete agreement…

We analyze B-type D-branes on noncompact toric Calabi--Yau spaces. A general program is presented to find a set of tilting line bundles that yields the associated quiver and its relations. In many cases, this set remains fixed as one moves…

We investigate some aspects of Pi-stability of D-branes on Calabi-Yau threefolds in cases where there is a point in moduli space where the grades nearly or completely align. We prove that an example of complete alignment is the case of a…

We present a large class of models of D-branes at (orientifold) Calabi-Yau singularities which enjoy dynamical supersymmetry breaking at low energy, by means of either the $SU(5)$ or 3-2 supersymmetry breaking models. Once embedded in a…

We analyze the link between the occurrence of massless B-type D-branes for specific values of moduli and monodromy around such points in the moduli space. This allows us to propose a classification of all massless B-type D-branes at any…

We study D-branes on smooth noncompact toric Calabi-Yau manifolds that are resolutions of abelian orbifold singularities. Such a space has a distinguished basis {S_i} for the compactly supported K-theory. Using local mirror symmetry we…

The notion that the geometry of spacetime is given by the moduli space of 0-branes is examined in four examples of Calabi-Yau threefolds. An important consideration when determining the moduli space of D-branes is the stability condition…
