Solving Four Dimensional Field Theories with the Dirichlet Fivebrane

Abstract

The realization of N=2 four dimensional super Yang-Mills theories in terms of a single Dirichlet fivebrane in type IIB string theory is considered. A classical brane computation reproduces the full quantum low energy effective action. This result has a simple explanation in terms of mirror symmetry.
