Brane Tilings, M2-branes and Orbifolds
John Davey
Brane Tilings represent one of the largest classes of superconformal theories with known gravity duals in 3+1 and also 2+1 dimensions. They provide a useful link between a large cl…
M2-Branes and Fano 3-folds
John Davey, Amihay Hanany, Noppadol Mekareeya +1
A class of supersymmetric gauge theories arising from M2-branes probing Calabi-Yau 4-folds which are cones over smooth toric Fano 3-folds is investigated. For each model, the toric…
Counting Orbifolds
John Davey, Amihay Hanany, Rak-Kyeong Seong
We present several methods of counting the orbifolds C^D/Gamma. A correspondence between counting orbifold actions on C^D, brane tilings, and toric diagrams in D-1 dimensions is dr…
Brane Tilings, M2-branes and Chern-Simons Theories
John Davey, Amihay Hanany, Noppadol Mekareeya +1
We investigate (2+1)-dimensional quiver Chern-Simons theories that arise from the study of M2-branes probing toric Calabi-Yau 4-folds. These theories can be elegantly described usi…
