We consider the supersymmetric quantum mechanical system which is obtained by dimensionally reducing d=6, N=1 supersymmetric gauge theory with gauge group U(1) and a single charged hypermultiplet. Using the deformation method and ideas…
We study the system of D6+D0 branes at sub-stringy scale. We show that the proper description of the system, for large background field associated with the D0-branes, is via spinning chargeless black holes in five dimensions. The repulsive…
We construct a two-parameter four-dimensional non-BPS NS-NS smooth microstate solution that asymptotes to flat spacetime with a linear dilaton in type II superstring theory. From the microscopic point of view, the background is made out of…
We explore the spectrum of lower-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS) solutions in $F(4)$ gauged supergravity in six dimensions. The ansatz employed corresponds to D4-branes partially wrapped on various supersymmetric cycles in special holonomy…
We find a large class of holographic solutions describing D4-branes wrapped on 4-manifolds $\mathcal{M}_4$ with constant curvature leading to gravity duals of supersymmetric quantum mechanics in the IR via twisted compactifications. The…
We construct a class of supersymmetric boundary interactions in N=2 field theories on the half-space, which depend on parameters that are not at all renormalized or not renormalized in perturbation theory beyond one-loop. This can be used…
We study on the spectrum and short-distance two-body force of holographic baryons by the matrix model, which is derived from Sakai-Sugimoto model in D0-D4 background (D0-D4/D8 system). The matrix model is derived by using the standard…
In this paper we extend our previous work hep-th/0102063 to the case D0-brane+antibrane system.
In my talk I shall consider the mechanism of self-expansion of a system of N D0-branes into high-dimensional non-commutative world-volume investigated by Harmark and Savvidy. Here D2-brane is formed due to the internal angular momentum of…
We construct supergravity solutions for D-branes in nontrivial flux backgrounds. We revisit the issue of charge quantization in this framework, and show that in these backgrounds, charge need not be quantized. We also show in a particular…
We find a novel tachyon condensation which provides a D-brane system with spherical worldvolume in the flat spacetime. The tachyon profile is a deformation of a known D0-brane solution on non-BPS D3-branes in type IIA superstring theory,…
We report on our results of D3-brane probing a large class of generalised type IIB supergravity solutions presented very recently in the literature. The structure of the solutions is controlled by a single non-linear differential equation.…
We investigate the possibility of constructing a supergravity background dual to the quark-gluon plasma using D6-branes wrapping a three-cycle in the deformed conifold. The UV-completion of this setup is given by M-theory on a G2 holonomy…
We study the moduli space of the D0-brane system on Dp-branes realized in the noncommutative super Yang-Mills theory. By examining the fluctuations around the solitonic solutions generated by solution generating technique, we confirm the…
We construct and analyze D-branes in superstring theories in even dimensions less than ten. The backgrounds under study are supersymmetric R^{d-1,1} \times SL(2,R)_k / U(1) where the level of the supercoset is tuned such as to provide bona…
We consider a noncritical holographic model constructed from an intersecting brane configuration D4/$\bar{\rm{D4}}$-D4 with an external magnetic field. We investigate the influences of this magnetic field on strongly coupled dynamics by the…
The backreactions of anti-branes on a variety of supergravity backgrounds have been shown in a recent series of papers to be riled by some unexplained flux singularities. All of the situations studied so far involve backgrounds with (close…
We provide ${\cal N}=1$ superfield description of BPS backgrounds in six-dimensional supergravity (6D SUGRA) with 3-branes, which is compactified on a two-dimensional space. The brane terms induce the localized fluxes. We find a useful…
We begin by presenting the superparticle action in the background of N=2, D=4 supergravity coupled to n vector multiplets interacting via an arbitrary special Kahler geometry. Our construction is based on implementing kappa-supersymmetry.…
We study 4d membranes in type IIA flux compactifications of the form AdS$_4 \times X_6$, where $X_6$ admits a Calabi--Yau metric. These models feature scale separation and D6-branes/O6-planes on three-cycles of $X_6$. When the latter are…
