Special Geometry and Mirror Symmetry for Open String Backgrounds with N=1 Supersymmetry
Wolfgang Lerche
We review an approach for computing non-perturbative, exact superpotentials for Type II strings compactified on Calabi-Yau manifolds, with extra fluxes and D-branes on top. The met…
Holomorphic N=1 Special Geometry of Open--Closed Type II Strings
W. Lerche, P. Mayr, N. Warner
We outline a general geometric structure that underlies the N=1 superpotentials of a certain class of flux and brane configurations in type II string compactifications on Calabi-Ya…
N=1 Special Geometry, Mixed Hodge Variations and Toric Geometry
W. Lerche, P. Mayr, N. Warner
We study the superpotential of a certain class of N=1 supersymmetric type II compactifications with fluxes and D-branes. We show that it has an important two-dimensional meaning in…
On N=1 Mirror Symmetry for Open Type II Strings
W. Lerche, P. Mayr
We study the open string extension of the mirror map for N=1 supersymmetric type II vacua with D-branes on non-compact Calabi-Yau manifolds. Its definition is given in terms of a s…
A new kind of McKay correspondence from non-Abelian gauge theories
W. Lerche, P. Mayr, J. Walcher
The boundary chiral ring of a 2d gauged linear sigma model on a Kähler manifold classifies the topological D-brane sectors and the massless open strings between them. While it…
On a Boundary CFT Description of Nonperturbative N=2 Yang-Mills Theory
W. Lerche
We describe a simple method for determining the strong-coupling BPS spectrum of four dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The idea is to represent the magnetic monopol…
