Branes and 2d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (2, 2) gauge theories with orthogonal and symplectic groups
Abstract We construct two-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (2, 2) supersymmetric gauge theories with orthogonal and symplectic groups using branes and orientifold planes in Type IIA string theory. A number of puzzles regarding the construction, including the effect of exchanging NS5-branes on an or...
