Toric Duality as Seiberg Duality and Brane Diamonds
Bo Feng, Amihay Hanany, Yang-Hui He +1
We use field theory and brane diamond techniques to demonstrate that Toric Duality is Seiberg duality for N=1 theories with toric moduli spaces. This resolves the puzzle concerning…
Quiver Theories from D6-branes via Mirror Symmetry
Amihay Hanany, Amer Iqbal
We study N=1 four dimensional quiver theories arising on the worldvolume of D3-branes at del Pezzo singularities of Calabi-Yau threefolds. We argue that under local mirror symmetry…
Orientifold planes, affine algebras and magnetic monopoles
Amihay Hanany, Jan Troost
We analyze string theory backgrounds that include different kinds of orientifold planes and map out a natural correspondence to (twisted) affine Kac-Moody algebras. The low-energy…
Phase Structure of D-brane Gauge Theories and Toric Duality
Bo Feng, Amihay Hanany, Yang-Hui He
Harnessing the unimodular degree of freedom in the definition of any toric diagram, we present a method of constructing inequivalent gauge theories which are world-volume theories…
