Accordingly, the rank $n$ K-theoretic Donaldson-Thomas invariants of $\\mathbb{C}^{3}$ are connected with the index of M-theory on $\\mathbb{C}^{3}\\times\\mathbb{TN}_{n}$. In this paper, we extend this connection by considering intersecting D$6$-branes. In the presence of a suitable Neveu-Schwarz $B$-field, the system preserves two supercharges.
