arXiv: 1907.09601 · 2019-09-25

## TL;DR

This paper explores how a Kalb-Ramond field and string charge can emerge from a lattice dimer model with rotor variables, revealing a natural coupling between gauge and string fields and introducing a D-brane-like object.

## Contribution

It demonstrates the emergence of a Kalb-Ramond field and string charge from a lattice model, including a coupling with Maxwell fields and a D-brane-like object.

## Key findings

- Kalb-Ramond field emerges from the lattice model
- Coupling between gauge and string fields is naturally incorporated
- A D-brane-like object is introduced on the lattice

## Abstract

The emergence of a Kalb-Ramond field and string charge in the lattice is discussed. The local bosonic model with rotor variables placed on the faces of a cubic lattice is considered. The coupling model consisting of the Maxwell fields and the Kalb-Ramond field is given. This construction naturally incorporates the emerging coupling between both gauge and string fields. In the process, an object that resembles to a D-brane on the lattice is introduced.
