We review recent developments in the theory of brane tilings and four-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric quiver gauge theories. This review consists of two parts. In part I, we describe foundations of brane tilings, emphasizing the physical interpretation of brane tilings as fivebrane systems. In part II, we discuss application of brane tilings to AdS/CFT correspondence and homological mirror symmetry. More topics, such as orientifold of brane tilings, phenomenological model building, similarities with BPS solitons in supersymmetric gauge theories, are also briefly discussed. This paper is a revised version of the author's master's thesis submitted to Department of Physics, Faculty of Science, the University of Tokyo on January 2008, and is based on his several papers: math.AG/0605780, math.AG/0606548, hep-th/0702049, math.AG/0703267, arXiv:0801.3528 and some works in progress.

  1. D2-brane probes of non-toric cDV threefolds via monopole superpotentials

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    D2-brane probes of non-toric cDV threefolds are described by N=2 deformations of 3d N=4 affine Dynkin quivers using polynomial and monopole superpotentials, with 3d mirror symmetry reproducing the known quiver-collaps...
