On the Moduli Space of Donaldson-Thomas Instantons
Palabras clave:
gauge theory, the Donaldson-Thomas theoryResumen
In alignment with a programme by Donaldson and Thomas, Thomas [48] constructed a deformation invariant for smooth projective Calabi-Yau threefolds, which is now called the Donaldson-Thomas invariant, from the moduli space of (semi-)stable sheaves by using algebraic geometry techniques. In the same paper [48], Thomas noted that certain perturbed Hermitian-Einstein equations might possibly produce an analytic theory of the invariant. This article sets up the equations on symplectic 6-manifolds, and gives the local model and structures of the moduli space coming from the equations. We then describe a Hitchin-Kobayashi style correspondence for the equations on compact Kähler threefolds, which turns out to be a special case of results by Álvarez-Cónsul and Garcı́a-Prada [1].
