Origami with a Twist: Twisted Holography of Four-Dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ Orientifold Theories (2411.14200v1)
Published 21 Nov 2024 in hep-th
Abstract: We consider $\mathcal{N} = 2$ superconformal gauge theories in four dimensions. We explain how these quiver gauge theories arise as low-energy worldvolume theories of D3-branes on orientifolds. Then, we examine their associated chiral algebras, and propose novel examples of twisted holographic dualities arising in the large-N limit. These dualities involve topological strings in the bulk, which is a Calabi-Yau threefold taking the form $\text{SL}_2 \mathbb{C} / \Gamma$.
