We consider ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric Born-Infeld actions that have a second non-linear supersymmetry. We focus on the model proposed by Bagger and Galperin and show that the breaking of the second supersymmetry is sourced by the new…
The parent action method is utilized to the Born-Infeld and $Dp$-brane theories. Various new forms of Born-Infeld and $Dp$-brane actions are derived by using this systematic approach, in which both the already known 2-metric and newly…
We compare the Infrared Dirac-Born-Infeld (IR DBI) brane inflation model to observations using a Bayesian analysis. The current data cannot distinguish it from the \LambdaCDM model, but is able to give interesting constraints on various…
We argue that the moduli space for the Bagger-Lambert A_4 theory at level k is (R^8 \times R^8)/D_{2k}, where D_{2k} is the dihedral group of order 4k. We conjecture that the theory describes two M2-branes on a Z_{2k} ``M-fold'', in which a…
New actions in D=2 and D=3 are proposed that are dual equivalent to known theories displaying well defined chirality and helicity, respectively, along with a new interpolating action that maps continuously through the original dualities.…
We review some aspects of D-instantons in intersecting D-brane models. In particular, we present applications of the recently proposed instanton calculus to computations of charged matter superpotential couplings and corrections to the…
In hep-th/9903210 (curvature)$^2$ terms of the effective D-brane action were derived to lowest order in the string coupling. Their results are correct up to ambiguous terms which involve the second fundamental form of the D-brane. We…
We consider a D-brane coupled with gravity in type IIB supergravity on S^5 and derive the effective theory on the D-brane in two different ways, that is, holographic and geometrical projection methods. We find that the effective equations…
We propose an efficient inverse design approach for multifunctional optical elements based on adaptive deep diffractive neural networks (a-D$^2$NNs). Specifically, we introduce a-D$^2$NNs and design two-layer diffractive devices that can…
The Adiabatic Connection Integrand Interpolation (ACII) method represents a general path for calculating correlation energies in electronic systems within the Den sity Functional Theory. ACII functionals include both exact-exchange and the…
We discuss in a systematic way all the possible realisations of branes of M and type II theories as topological solitons of a brane-antibrane system. The classification of all the possibilities, consistent with the structure of the theory,…
From BFSS matrix theory considerations, it is expected that a single D$_{p+2}$-brane action can be obtained from N D$_p$-brane action in large N limit. We examine and confirm this expectation by working out the details of DBI and…
We construct unstable system D8-brane+D8-antibrane as a kink solution on world-volume of non-BPS D9-brane in Type IIA theory. Further we will make other checks confirming validity of our appro.
This note focuses on the coupling of a type IIA D2-brane to a background B field. It is shown that the D0-brane charge arising from the integral over the D2-brane of the pullback of the B field is cancelled by bulk contributions, for a…
Through direct examination of the effect of the OM limit on the M2-brane worldvolume action, we derive a membrane action for OM theory, and more generally, for the eleven-dimensional M-theoretic construct known as Galilean or Wrapped…
We review several lines of evidence for a 12d interpretation of the type IIB brane solutions and effective actions. The axio-dilaton sector fits naturally into 12d gravity, as supported by brane geometries and supersymmetry. The special…
The one-loop effective action for a $p$ brane embedded in a $D=p+2$ Minkowski spacetime in the static gauge is calculated. Rescaling the quantum fluctuation by $\sqrt{-g_0}$ evaluated on the background brane leads to the one-loop effective…
In the previous submission of this paper we claimed to have solved the problem of constructing a consistent non-abelian Born Infeld action which is $\kappa$--supersymmetric to all orders. Our method was based on an extension of target…
We investigate D-branes on the product GxG of two group manifolds described as Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten models. When the levels of the two groups coincide, it is well known that there exist permutation D-branes which are twisted by the…
In this paper we study the action for N D0-branes in a curved background. In particular, we focus on the meaning of space-time diffeomorphism invariance. For a single D-brane, diffeomorphism invariance acts in a naive way on the…
