Matrix factorisations and D-branes on K3

Abstract

D-branes on K3 are analysed from three different points of view. For deformations of hypersurfaces in weighted projected space we use geometrical methods as well as matrix factorisation techniques. Furthermore, we study the D-branes on the T^4/\Z_4 orbifold line in conformal field theory. The behaviour of the D-branes under deformations of the bulk theory are studied in detail, and good agreement between the different descriptions is found.Comment: 35 pages, no figure
