Novel field theory phenomena from F theory and D-branes
Abstract
Talk presented in the 97 Karpatcz winter school. We describe Sen's work on F theory on K3 and its reflection on the world-volume field theory on a D3-brane probe. Field theories on a multiple of probes are analyzed. We construct a 4d N=1 superconformal probe theory which is invariant under electric-magnetic duality via a compactification to six dimensions on T6/Z2 x Z2.
