abstract

We formulate an extension of Maldacena's AdS/CFT conjectures to the case of branes located at singular points in the ambient transverse space. For singularities which occur at finite distance in the moduli space of M or F theory models with spacetime-filling branes, the conjectures identify the worldvolume theory on the p-branes with a compactification of M or IIB theory on $AdS_{p+2} \times H^{D-p-2}$. We show how the singularity determines the horizon H, and demonstrate the relationship between global symmetries on the worldvolume and gauge symmetries in the AdS model. As a first application, we study some singularities relevant to the D3-branes required in four-dimensional F-theory. For these we are able to explicitly derive the low-energy field theory on the worldvolume and compare its properties to predictions from the dual AdS model. In particular, we examine the baryon spectra of the models and the fate of the Abelian factors in the gauge group.

A class of half-BPS boundary conditions for $A_{K-1}$ circular quivers

hep-th · 2026-06-02 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Characterizes solutions to BPS equations for D4-branes ending on boundary D6-branes in A_{K-1} circular quivers, finding a winding phenomenon absent in linear quivers and proposing the maximal-winding case as S-dual to Neumann boundary conditions.

Machine Learning Toric Duality in Brane Tilings

hep-th · 2024-09-23 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Neural networks classify Seiberg dual classes on Z_m x Z_n orbifolds with R^2=0.988 and predict toric multiplicities for Y^{6,0} with mean absolute error 0.021 under fixed Kasteleyn representative.
