String Theory on AdS_3 x S^3 x S^3 x S^1
Shmuel Elitzur, Ofer Feinerman, Amit Giveon +1
Spacetime properties of superstrings on AdS_3 x S^3 x S^3 x S^1 are studied. The boundary theory is a two dimensional superconformal field theory with a large N=(4,4) supersymmetry…
Comments on String Theory on
A. Giveon, D. Kutasov, N. Seiberg
We study string propagation on times a compact space from an ``old fashioned'' worldsheet point of view of perturbative string theory. We derive the spacetime CFT and its V…
Brane Dynamics and Gauge Theory
A. Giveon, D. Kutasov
We review some aspects of the interplay between the dynamics of branes in string theory and the classical and quantum physics of gauge theories with different numbers of supersymme…
Branes, Orientifolds and Chiral Gauge Theories
Shmuel Elitzur, Amit Giveon, David Kutasov +1
We discuss some aspects of the physics of branes in the presence of orientifolds and the corresponding worldvolume gauge dynamics. We show that at strong coupling orientifolds some…
