    Classification of N=2 supersymmetric CFT_{4}s: Indefinite Series

    Full text link
    Using geometric engineering method of 4D N=2\mathcal{N}=2 quiver gauge theories and results on the classification of Kac-Moody (KM) algebras, we show on explicit examples that there exist three sectors of N=2\mathcal{N}=2 infrared CFT4_{4}s. Since the geometric engineering of these CFT4_{4}s involve type II strings on K3 fibered CY3 singularities, we conjecture the existence of three kinds of singular complex surfaces containing, in addition to the two standard classes, a third indefinite set. To illustrate this hypothesis, we give explicit examples of K3 surfaces with H34_{3}^{4} and E10_{10} hyperbolic singularities. We also derive a hierarchy of indefinite complex algebraic geometries based on affine ArA_{r} and T%_{(p,q,r)} algebras going beyond the hyperbolic subset. Such hierarchical surfaces have a remarkable signature that is manifested by the presence of poles.Comment: 12 pages, 2 figure

    Brane Realizations of Quantum Hall Solitons and Kac-Moody Lie Algebras

    Full text link
    Using quiver gauge theories in (1+2)-dimensions, we give brane realizations of a class of Quantum Hall Solitons (QHS) embedded in Type IIA superstring on the ALE spaces with exotic singularities. These systems are obtained by considering two sets of wrapped D4-branes on 2-spheres. The space-time on which the QHS live is identified with the world-volume of D4-branes wrapped on a collection of intersecting 2-spheres arranged as extended Dynkin diagrams of Kac-Moody Lie algebras. The magnetic source is given by an extra orthogonal D4-brane wrapping a generic 2-cycle in the ALE spaces. It is shown as well that data on the representations of Kac-Moody Lie algebras fix the filling factor of the QHS. In case of finite Dynkin diagrams, we recover results on QHS with integer and fractional filling factors known in the literature. In case of hyperbolic bilayer models, we obtain amongst others filling factors describing holes in the graphene.Comment: Lqtex; 15 page

    Using the algebraic geometric approach of Berenstein et {\it al} (hep-th/005087 and hep-th/009209) and methods of toric geometry, we study non commutative (NC) orbifolds of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric varieties with discrete torsion. We first develop a new way of getting complex dd mirror Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces HΔ∗dH_{\Delta}^{\ast d} in toric manifolds MΔ∗(d+1)M_{\Delta }^{\ast (d+1)} with a C∗rC^{\ast r} action and analyze the general group of the discrete isometries of HΔ∗dH_{\Delta}^{\ast d}. Then we build a general class of dd complex dimension NC mirror Calabi-Yau orbifolds where the non commutativity parameters θμν\theta_{\mu \nu} are solved in terms of discrete torsion and toric geometry data of MΔ(d+1)M_{\Delta}^{(d+1)} in which the original Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces is embedded. Next we work out a generalization of the NC algebra for generic dd dimensions NC Calabi-Yau manifolds and give various representations depending on different choices of the Calabi-Yau toric geometry data. We also study fractional D-branes at orbifold points. We refine and extend the result for NC T2)/(Z2×Z2)% (T^{2}\times T^{2}\times T^{2})/(\mathbf{{Z_{2}}\times {Z_{2})}} to higher dimensional torii orbifolds in terms of Clifford algebra.Comment: 38 pages, Late

    Embedding Fractional Quantum Hall Solitons in M-theory Compactifications

    Full text link
    We engineer U(1)^n Chern-Simons type theories describing fractional quantum Hall solitons (QHS) in 1+2 dimensions from M-theory compactified on eight dimensional hyper-K\"{a}hler manifolds as target space of N=4 sigma model. Based on M-theory/Type IIA duality, the systems can be modeled by considering D6-branes wrapping intersecting Hirzebruch surfaces F_0's arranged as ADE Dynkin Diagrams and interacting with higher dimensional R-R gauge fields. In the case of finite Dynkin quivers, we recover well known values of the filling factor observed experimentally including Laughlin, Haldane and Jain series.Comment: Latex, 14 pages.

    On Non Commutative G2 structure

    Full text link
    Using an algebraic orbifold method, we present non-commutative aspects of G2G_2 structure of seven dimensional real manifolds. We first develop and solve the non commutativity parameter constraint equations defining G2G_2 manifold algebras. We show that there are eight possible solutions for this extended structure, one of which corresponds to the commutative case. Then we obtain a matrix representation solving such algebras using combinatorial arguments. An application to matrix model of M-theory is discussed.Comment: 16 pages, Latex.
