Fractional Numbers

Partially supersymmetric intersecting (non-marginal) composite M-brane solutions defined on the product of Ricci-flat manifolds M0 × M1 × ⋯ × Mn in D = 11 supergravity are considered and formulae for fractional numbers of unbroken supersymmetries are derived for the following configurations of branes: M2 ∩ M2, M2 ∩ M5, M5 ∩ M5 and M2 ∩ M2 ∩ M2. Certain examples of partially supersymmetric configurations are presented.

Abstract Superstring/M-theory compactified on compact Ricci flat manifolds have recently been conjectured to exhibit instabilities whenever the metrics do not have special holonomy. We use worldsheet conformal field theory to investigate instabilities of Type II superstring theories on compact, Ricci flat, spin 3-manifolds including a worldsheet description of their spin structures. The instabilities are signalled by the appearance of stringy tachyons at small radius and a negative (1-loop) vacuum energy density at large radius. We briefly discuss the extension to higher dimensions.

Torsion Free

We look for the necessary and sufficient conditions for a generalized torsion-free nonlinear σ-model to be one-loop finite. The corresponding metrics are not only Ricci flat ones, but also a larger class we call “quasi Ricci flat” spaces. We give expressions for the corresponding Lagrangian densities in the real and Kähler cases. In the latter, the manifold is shown to be proper, complete and nonhomogeneous. Unfortunately, in the compact case, relevant for string theory, these quasi Ricci flat manifolds become Ricci flat ones.

AbstractIn this article we study the Kähler–Ricci flow, the corresponding parabolic Monge–Ampère equation and complete non-compact Kähler–Ricci flat manifolds. Our main result states that if (M,g) is sufficiently close to being Kähler–Ricci flat in a suitable sense, then the Kähler–Ricci flow has a long time smooth solution g(t) converging smoothly uniformly on compact sets to a complete Kähler–Ricci flat metric on M. The main step is to obtain a uniform C0-estimate for the corresponding parabolic Monge–Ampère equation. Our results on this can be viewed as parabolic versions of the main results of Tian and Yau [Complete Kähler manifolds with zero Ricci curvature. II, Invent. Math. 106 (1990), 27–60] on the elliptic Monge–Ampère equation.
