Large N Duality for Compact Calabi-Yau Threefolds
Duiliu-Emanuel Diaconescu, Bogdan Florea
We study geometric transitions for topological strings on compact Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric varieties. Large N duality predicts an equivalence between topological open and…
Geometric Transitions, del Pezzo Surfaces and Open String Instantons
Duiliu-Emanuel Diaconescu, Bogdan Florea, Antonella Grassi
We continue the study of a class of geometric transitions proposed by Aganagic and Vafa which exhibit open string instanton corrections to Chern-Simons theory. In this paper we con…
Geometric Transitions and Open String Instantons
Duiliu-Emanuel Diaconescu, Bogdan Florea, Antonella Grassi
We investigate the physical and mathematical structure of a new class of geometric transitions proposed by Aganagic and Vafa. The distinctive aspect of these transitions is the pre…
