A mini-course on topological strings
Marcel Vonk
These are the lecture notes for a short course in topological string theory that I gave at Uppsala University in the fall of 2004. The notes are aimed at PhD students who have stud…
The NS five-brane partition sum
M. Vonk
This note is the written version of a talk which was presented at the Cargese 2002 summer school. It gives a brief introduction to the paper hep-th/0205281, written in collaboratio…
String networks and supersheets
E. Verlinde, M. Vonk
As was shown by Aharony, Hanany and Kol and independently by Sen, type IIB string theory admits configurations where strings of different charges (p_i, q_i) form so-called string n…
On the partition sum of the NS five-brane
R. Dijkgraaf, E. Verlinde, M. Vonk
We study the Type IIA NS five-brane wrapped on a Calabi-Yau manifold X in a double-scaled decoupling limit. We calculate the euclidean partition function in the presence of a flat…
