Chern-Simons matrix model for local conifold
V. Yasnov
We check the large N transition proposed by Aganagic and Vafa and further studied by Diaconescu, Florea and Grassi using the large N limit of the corresponding Chern-Simons two mat…
Tachyon condensation at one loop
D. Nemeschansky, V. Yasnov
Using boundary string field theory we study the decay of unstable D-branes to lower dimensional D-branes via the tachyon condensation at one loop level. We analyze one loop diverge…
Large N Duality, Lens Spaces and the Chern-Simons Matrix Model
Nick Halmagyi, Takuya Okuda, Vadim Yasnov
We demonsrate that the spectral curve of the matrix model for Chern-Simons theory on the Lens space S^{3}/\ZZ_p is precisely the Riemann surface which appears in the mirror to the…
Chern-Simons Matrix Models and Unoriented Strings
Nick Halmagyi, Vadim Yasnov
For matrix models with measure on the Lie algebra of SO/Sp, the sub-leading free energy is given by F_{1}(S)=\pm{1/4}\frac{\del F_{0}(S)}{\del S}. Motivated by the fact that this r…
Background Independent Open String Field Theory and Constant B-Field
D. Nemeschansky, V. Yasnov
We calculate the background independent action for bosonic and supersymmetric open string field theory in a constant B-field. We also determine the tachyon effective action in the…
