D-branes in some near-horizon geometries

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

I review some properties of D-branes in the SU(2) and SL(2,R) WZW models. I comment on a potential difficulty for the realization of `warped brane worlds' in string theory. This short note is based on a talk given at the Strings'01 conference in Mumbay.
