Quantum corrections to the energy of D0-branes in a constant RR 4-form background are studied. Using the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, we compute the long-range interaction between two spherical D2-D0 bound states. We extend this…
Using the boundary state formalism we study rotating and moving D$p$-branes in the presence of the following background fields: Kalb-Ramond, $U(1)$ gauge potential and the tachyon field. The rotation and motion are in the brane volumes. The…
We use rotation of one D-brane with respect to the other to reveal the hidden structure of D-branes in type-II theories. This is done by calculation of the interaction amplitude for two different parallel and angled branes. The analysis of…
In this article we shall obtain the boundary state associated with a moving $Dp$-brane in the presence of the Kalb-Ramond field $B_{\mu\nu}$, an internal U(1) gauge field $A_{\alpha}$ and a tachyon field, in the compact spacetime. According…
As a step toward constructing realistic brane world models in string theory, we consider the interactions of a pair of non-BPS branes. We construct a dyonic generalization of the non-BPS branes first constructed by Bergman, Gaberdiel and…
We study the properties of a D-brane in the presence of $k$ NS5 branes. The Dirac-Born-Infeld action describing the dynamics of this D-brane is very similar to that of a non-BPS D-brane in ten dimensions. As the D-brane approaches the…
We shall obtain the interaction of the D$p_1$- and D$p_2$-branes in the toroidal-orbifold spacetime $\mathit{T}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}^{1, d-n-5} \times\mathbb{C}^{2}/\mathbb{Z}_{2}$. The configuration of the branes is: non-intersecting,…
We calculate the bosonic boundary state associated with a rotating and moving D$p$-brane in the presence of the antisymmetric tensor field, a $U(1)$ gauge field and a tachyon field. Rotation and motion are in the brane volume. We…
We improve on the understanding of the backreaction of anti-D6-branes in a flux background that is mutually BPS with D6-branes. This setup is analogous to the study of the backreaction of anti-D3-branes inserted in the KS throat, but does…
We study D-brane dynamics in the gravity dual background of ODp theories using the effective action on the worldvolume of the brane. We explore the similarities of the system with the rolling tachyon, including the exponential decrease of…
We investigate the dynamics of a pair of coincident D5 branes in the background of $k$ NS5 branes. It has been proposed by Kutasov that the system with a single probing D-brane moving radially in this background is dual to the tachyonic DBI…
We show the existence of classical solutions of a system of D3-branes oriented at an arbitrary angle with respect to each other, in a six dimensional pp-wave background obtained from AdS_3\times S^3\times R^4, with NS-NS and R-R 3-form…
Motivated by the Randall-Sundrum brane-world scenario, we discuss the classical and quantum dynamics of a (d+1)-dimensional boundary wall between a pair of (d+2)-dimensional topological Schwarzschild-AdS black holes. We assume there are…
We discuss a new class of brane models (extending both p-brane and Dp-brane cases) where the brane tension appears as an additional dynamical degree of freedom instead of being put in by hand as an ad hoc dimensionfull scale. Consistency of…
We present a class of dynamical solutions in a D-dimensional gravitational theory coupled to a dilaton, a form field strength, and a cosmological constant. We find that for any D due to the presence of a cosmological constant, the metric of…
Rotational dynamics is known to polarize D0 branes into higher dimensional fuzzy D$p$-branes: the tension forces between D0 branes provide the centripetal acceleration, and a puffed up spinning configuration stabilizes. In this work, we…
The time-varying density of D-branes and anti-D-branes in an expanding universe is calculated. The D-brane anti-brane annihilation rate is shown to be too small to compete with the expansion rate of a FRW type universe and the branes…
Crossing symmetry appears in Dbrane-anti-Dbrane dynamics in the form of an analytic continuation from U(N) for N brane amplitudes to U(N-p,p) for the interactions of N-p branes with p anti-branes. I consider the consequences for…
We compute the boundary state corresponding to a fractional D$p$-brane with transverse motion and internal background fields: Kalb-Ramond and a $U(1)$ gauge field. The spacetime has the orbifold structure $\mathbb{R}^{1,5}…
We quantize an open string stretched between D0-branes revolving around each other. The worldsheet theory is analyzed in a rotating coordinate system in which the worldsheet fields obey simple boundary conditions, but instead the worldsheet…
