D0-Branes as Instantons in D=4 Super Yang-Mills Theories
J. L. F. Barbon, A. Pasquinucci
We discuss the role of D0-branes as instantons in the construction of SU(N) Super Yang-Mills and Super QCD theories in four space-time dimensions with D4-, D6- and NS-branes. [To a…
Special Kähler Geometry. Does there Exist a Prepotential?
B. Craps, F. Roose, W. Troost +1
A symplectically invariant definition of special Kähler geometry is discussed. Certain aspects hereof are illustrated by means of Calabi-Yau moduli spaces.
M 5-brane and superconformal (0,2) tensor multiplet in 6 dimensions
Piet Claus, Renata Kallosh, Antoine Van Proeyen
We present a gauge-fixed M 5-brane action: a 6-dimensional field theory of a self-interacting (0,2) tensor multiplet with 32 worldvolume supersymmetries. The quadratic part of this…
Microscopic derivation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy formula for non-extremal black holes
K. Sfetsos, K. Skenderis
We derive the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy formula for four and five dimensional non-supersymmetric black holes (which include the Schwarzchild ones) by counting microscopic states.…
Softly Broken MQCD and the Theta Angle
J. L. F. Barbon, A. Pasquinucci
We consider a family of non-supersymmetric MQCD five-brane configurations introduced by Witten, and discuss the dependence of the curves on the microscopic theta angle and its rela…
On the Evaluation of Compton Scattering Amplitudes in String Theory
A. Pasquinucci, M. Petrini
We consider the Compton amplitude for the scattering of a photon and a (massless) ``electron/positron'' at one loop (i.e. genus one) in a four-dimensional fermionic heterotic strin…
The nonminimal scalar multiplet: duality, sigma-model, beta-function
Silvia Penati, Andrea Refolli, Antoine Van Proeyen +1
We compute in superspace the one-loop beta-function for the nonlinear sigma-model defined in terms of the nonminimal scalar multiplet. The recently proposed quantization of this co…
Special geometry in hypermultiplets
J. De Jaegher, B. de Wit, B. Kleijn +1
We give a detailed analysis of pairs of vector and hypermultiplet theories with N=2 supersymmetry in four spacetime dimensions that are related by the (classical) mirror map. The s…
Duality and asymptotic geometries
H. J. Boonstra, B. Peeters, K. Skenderis
We consider a series of duality transformations that leads to a constant shift in the harmonic functions appearing in the description of a configuration of branes. This way, for se…
Self-Dual Supergravity from N=2 Strings
J. de Boer, K. Skenderis
A new heterotic N=2 string with manifest target space supersymmetry is constructed by combining a conventional N=2 string in the right-moving sector and a Green-Schwarz-Berkovits t…
Quantization of the complex linear superfield
M. Grisaru, A. Van Proeyen, D. Zanon
The quantization of the complex linear superfield requires an infinite tower of ghosts. We use the Batalin-Vilkovisky method to obtain a gauge-fixed action. In superspace, the meth…
What is Special Kähler Geometry ?
B. Craps, F. Roose, W. Troost +1
The scalars in vector multiplets of N=2 supersymmetric theories in 4 dimensions exhibit `special Kaehler geometry', related to duality symmetries, due to their coupling to the vect…
Chern-Simons Couplings and Inequivalent Vector-Tensor Multiplets
P. Claus, B. de Wit, M. Faux +1
The off-shell vector-tensor multiplet is considered in an arbitrary background of N=2 vector supermultiplets. We establish the existence of two inequivalent versions, characterized…
