It was recently pointed out by E. Witten that for a D-brane to consistently wrap a
submanifold of some manifold, the normal bundle must admit a Spinc structure. We examine
this constraint in the case of type II string compactifications with vanishing cosmological
constant, and argue that in all such cases, the normal bundle to a supersymmetric
cycle is automatically Spinc. © 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights
