High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In string theory, the K-theory classification refers to a conjectured application of K-theory (in abstract algebra and algebraic topology) to superstrings, to classify the allowed Ramond-Ramond field strengths as well as the charges of stable D-branes. This conjecture, applied to D-brane charges, was first proposed by Minasian & Moore (1997). It was popularized by Witten (1998) who demonstrated that in type IIB string theory arises naturally from Ashoke Sen's realization of arbitrary D-brane configurations as stacks of D9 and anti-D9-branes after tachyon condensation. Such stacks of branes are inconsistent in a non-torsion Neveu-Schwarz (NS) 3-form background, which, as was highlighted by Kapustin (2000), complicates the extension of the K-theory classification to such cases. Bouwknegt & Varghese (2000) suggested a solution to this problem: D-branes are in general classified by a twisted K-theory, that had earlier been defined by Rosenberg (1989).
