Self-dual strings and N=2 supersymmetric field theory

We show how the Riemann surface \Sigma of N=2 Yang-Mills field theory arises in type II string compactifications on Calabi-Yau threefolds. The relevant local geometry is given by fibrations of ALE spaces. The 3-branes that give rise to BPS multiplets in the string descend to self-dual strings on the...
