Open and Closed Supermembranes with Winding
Bernard de Wit, Kasper Peeters, Jan Plefka
Motivated by manifest Lorentz symmetry and a well-defined large-N limit prescription, we study the supersymmetric quantum mechanics proposed as a model for the collective dynamics…
Matrix Theory on Non-Orientable Surfaces
Gysbert Zwart
We construct the Matrix theory descriptions of M-theory on the Mobius strip and the Klein bottle. In a limit, these provide the matrix string theories for the CHL string and an orb…
Notes on Matrix and Micro Strings
R. Dijkgraaf, E. Verlinde, H. Verlinde
We review some recent developments in the study of M-theory compactifications via Matrix theory. In particular we highlight the appearance of IIA strings and their interactions, an…
Four-dimensional N=1 Z_N X Z_M Orientifolds
Gysbert Zwart
We calculate the tadpole equations and their solutions for a class of four-dimensional orientifolds with orbifold group Z_N X Z_M, and we present the massless bosonic spectra of th…
The supermembrane with winding
B. de Wit, K. Peeters, J. C. Plefka
The supersymmetry algebra for supermembranes, quantized in the light-cone gauge, exhibits central charges induced by wrapping the membrane around compact dimensions. These central…
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…
