Dirichlet branes, homological mirror symmetry, and stability
Michael R. Douglas
We discuss some mathematical conjectures which have come out of the Dirichlet branes in superstring theory, focusing on the case of supersymmetric branes in Calabi-Yau compactifica…
Seiberg Duality for Quiver Gauge Theories
David Berenstein, Michael R. Douglas
A popular way to study N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories is to realize them geometrically in string theory, as suspended brane constructions, D-branes wrapping cycles in Calabi-Yau…
D-branes on Calabi-Yau Manifolds and Superpotentials
Michael R. Douglas, Suresh Govindarajan, T. Jayaraman +1
We show how to compute terms in an expansion of the world-volume superpotential for fairly general D-branes on the quintic Calabi-Yau using linear sigma model techniques, and show…
Open String Star as a Continuous Moyal Product
Michael R. Douglas, Hong Liu, Gregory Moore +1
We establish that the open string star product in the zero momentum sector can be described as a continuous tensor product of mutually commuting two dimensional Moyal star products…
