Application of this framework sheds light on homological mirror symmetry.
The note clarifies the conceptual link between D-branes and category theory.
Abstract
This is a short nontechnical note summarizing the motivation and results of my recent work on D-brane categories. I also give a brief outline of how this framework can be applied to study the dynamics of topological D-branes and why this has a bearing on the homological mirror symmetry conjecture. This note can be read without any knowledge of category theory.
