Dynamical Chiral Symmetry Breaking on a Brane in Reduced QED [PDF]
Reduced gauge theories are theories in which while gauge fields propagate in a bulk, fermion fields are localized on a brane. We study dynamical chiral symmetry breaking on a 2-brane and a 1-brane in reduced QED_{3+1}, and on a 1-brane in reduced QED_{2 ...

Three-Dimensional Gauge Dynamics from Brane Configurations with (p,q)-Fivebrane [PDF]
We study three-dimensional gauge dynamics by using type IIB superstring brane configurations, which can be obtained from the M-theory configuration of M2-branes stretched between two M5-branes with relative angles.

D-brane Instantons as Gauge Instantons in Orientifolds of Chiral Quiver Theories [PDF]
Systems of D3-branes at orientifold singularities can receive non-perturbative D-brane instanton corrections, inducing field theory operators in the 4d effective theory.

(1 + p)-Dimensional Open D(p - 2) Brane Theories [PDF]
The dynamics of a Dp brane can be described either by an open string ending on this brane or by an open D(p - 2) brane ending on the same Dp brane. The ends of the open string couple to a Dp brane worldvolume gauge field while the boundary of the open D ...

Brane Dynamics and N=1 Supersymmetric Gauge Theory [PDF]
We discuss some aspects of the relation between space-time properties of branes in string theory, and the gauge theory on their worldvolume, for models invariant under four supercharges in three and four dimensions.

World-manifold and target space anomalies in heterotic Green-Schwarz strings and five-branes [PDF]
The quantum consistency of sigma-models describing the dynamics of extended objects in a curved background requires the cancellation of their world-volume anomalies, which are conformal anomalies for the heterotic string and $SO(1,5)$ Lorentz-anomalies ...

Gaugino Condensation and Nonperturbative Superpotentials in Flux Compactifications [PDF]
There are two known sources of nonperturbative superpotentials for K\"ahler moduli in type IIB orientifolds, or F-theory compactifications on Calabi-Yau fourfolds, with flux: Euclidean brane instantons and low-energy dynamics in D7 brane gauge theories ...

Monopole Bubbling via String Theory [PDF]
In this paper, we propose a string theory description of generic 't Hooft defects in $\mathcal{N}=2$ $SU(N)$ supersymmetric gauge theories. We show that the space of supersymmetric ground states is given by the moduli space of singular monopoles and that

Infra-red dynamics of D1-branes at the conifold [PDF]
We study the infra-red dynamics of D1-branes at the conifold. We show using methods developed to study the infra-red dynamics of (4,4) theories, the infra-red degrees of freedom of the (2,2) theory of a single D1-brane at the conifold is that of a linear

On Sub-Millimeter Forces From Extra Dimensions [PDF]
We show that in theories with large extra dimensions forces mediated by a bulk dilaton and bulk gauge fields may be parametrically (exponentially) weaker than gravity due to the suppression of their wave-functions on a brane.
