We analyze certain brane bound states in M-theory and their descendants in type IIA string theory, all involving 3-form or 2-form background fluxes. Among them are configurations which represent NCYM, NCOS and ODp-theories in the scaling…

In this paper we use the matrix string approach to begin a study of high energy scattering processes in M-theory. In particular we exhibit an instanton-type configuration in 1+1 super-Yang-Mills theory that can be interpreted as a…
We consider an open string stretched between a Y=0 brane and a Y_theta=0 brane. The latter brane is rotated with respect to the former by an angle theta, and is described by a non-diagonal boundary S-matrix. This system interpolates…
We propose a fusion formula for AdS/CFT worldsheet boundary S-matrices. We show that, starting from the fundamental Y=0 boundary S-matrix, this formula correctly reproduces the two-particle bound-state boundary S-matrices.
The Tricritical Ising model perturbed by the subleading energy operator \Phi_(3/5) was known to be an Integrable Scattering Theory of massive kinks and in fact preserves supersymmetry. We consider here the model defined on the half-plane…
We consider the one-dimensional Hubbard model at half filling. We show that both excitation spectrum and S-matrix are determined by the SO(4) symmetry of the model. The complete set of excitations is given by the scattering states four…
