Spiked Instantons from Intersecting D-branes

Understand

The moduli space of spiked instantons that arises in the context of the BPS/CFT correspondence is realised as the moduli space of classical vacua, i.e.

• low-energy open string field configurations, of a certain stack of intersecting D1-branes and D5-branes in Type IIB string theory.
• The presence of a constant B-field induces an interesting dynamics involving the tachyon condensation.
