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…
Investigation of the Critical Behavior of the Critical Point of the Z2 Gauge Lattice
Y. Blum, P. K. Coyle, S. Elitzur +3
We investigate, through Monte-Carlo simulations, the nature of the second order point in a (Bosonic) + gauge theory in four dimensions. Detailed analysis of the critica…
On Least Action D-Branes
Shmuel Elitzur, Eliezer Rabinovici, Gor Sarkissian
We discuss the effect of relevant boundary terms on the nature of branes. This is done for toroidal and orbifold compactifications of the bosonic string. Using the relative minimal…
Aspects of Confinement and Screening in M theory
Shmuel Elitzur, Oskar Pelc, Eliezer Rabinovici
Confinement and Screening are investigated in SUSY gauge theories, realized by an M5 brane configuration, extending an approach applied previously to N=1 SYM theory, to other model…
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…
