On noncommutative open string theories

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We investigate new compactifications of OM theory giving rise to a 3+1 dimensional open string theory with noncommutative x0-x1 and x2-x3 coordinates. The theory can be directly obtained by starting with a D3 brane with parallel (near critical) electric and magnetic field components, in the presence of a RR scalar field. The magnetic parameter permits to interpolate continuously between the x0-x1 noncommutative open string theory and the x2-x3 spatial noncommutative U(N) super Yang-Mills theory. We discuss SL(2,Z) transformations of this theory. Using the supergravity description of the large N limit, we also compute corrections to the quark-antiquark Coulomb potential arising in the NCOS theory.
