Kahler Potential and Higher Derivative Terms from M Theory Fivebrane

Jan de Boer, Kentaro Hori, Hirosi Ooguri +1

The construction of four dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories via the fivebrane of M theory wrapped around a Riemann surface has been successfully applied to the computation o…

Why Matrix Theory is Hard

Michael R. Douglas, Hirosi Ooguri

Recently Sen and Seiberg gave a prescription for constructing the matrix theory in any superstring background. We use their prescription to test the finite N matrix theory conjectu…

D-brane Actions on Kahler Manifolds

Michael R. Douglas, Akishi Kato, Hirosi Ooguri

We consider actions for N D-branes at points in a general Kahler manifold, which satisfy the axioms of D-geometry, and could be used as starting points for defining Matrix theory i…

Non-Abelian Conifold Transitions and N=4 Dualities in Three Dimensions

Kentaro Hori, Hirosi Ooguri, Cumrun Vafa

We show how Higgs mechanism for non-abelian N=2 gauge theories in four dimensions is geometrically realized in the context of type II strings as transitions among compactifications…

Strong Coupling Dynamics of Four-Dimensional N=1 Gauge Theories from M Theory Fivebrane

Kentaro Hori, Hirosi Ooguri, Yaron Oz

It has been known that the fivebrane of type IIA theory can be used to give an exact low energy description of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories in four dimensions. We follow the r…
