From Matrix Models to Gaussian Molecules and the Einstein-Hilbert Action

Manfred Herbst

A matrix model on a D-dimensional Euclidean space is introduced as a generalization of random matrix models and as a non-perturbative definition of discretized closed string theory…

On higher rank coisotropic A-branes

Manfred Herbst

This article is devoted to a world sheet analysis of A-type D-branes in N=(2,2) supersymmetric non-linear sigma models. In addition to the familiar Lagrangian submanifolds with fla…

On the unipotence of autoequivalences of toric complete intersection Calabi-Yau categories

Manfred Herbst, Johannes Walcher

We identify a class of autoequivalences of triangulated categories of singularities associated with Calabi-Yau complete intersections in toric varieties. Elements of this class sat…

Orientifolds and D-branes in N=2 gauged linear sigma models

Ilka Brunner, Manfred Herbst

We study parity symmetries and boundary conditions in the framework of gauged linear sigma models. This allows us to investigate the Kaehler moduli dependence of the physics of D-b…

Phases Of N=2 Theories In 1+1 Dimensions With Boundary

Manfred Herbst, Kentaro Hori, David Page

We study B-type D-branes in linear sigma models with Abelian gauge groups. The most important finding is the grade restriction rule. It classifies representations of the gauge grou…

Non-topological non-commutativity in string theory

Sebastian Guttenberg, Manfred Herbst, Maximilian Kreuzer +1

Quantization of coordinates leads to the non-commutative product of deformation quantization, but is also at the roots of string theory, for which space-time coordinates become the…
