Description

We study intersecting D-brane models, that describe at low energies a two dimensional chiral fermion theory localized at the intersection. The fermions are coupled to gauge fields in the bulk. The resulting low energy theory is equivalent to the Gross-Neveu model with dynamical chiral symmetry breaking. No Nambu-Goldstone boson associated with spontaneously broken symmetries appears in two dimensional field theories. In the present work we discuss solvable models with the same basic dynamics of the dual Gross-Neveu model. The disappearance of the Nambu-Goldstone boson is obtained from D-brane dynamics. The mechanism relies on the non-trivial dynamics of a gauge field due to anomaly inflow
