The action principle is frequently used to derive the classical equations of motion. The action may also be used to associate group elements with curves in the space-time manifold, similar to the gauge transformations. The action principle…

In this paper, we generalize the analysis of the $f(R,T)-$brane via the inclusion of a term proportional to the Gauss-Bonnet invariant. We consider an action of the form $F(R,G,T)=f(R,T)+\alpha G$, where $T$ is the trace of the…

We consider probe p-branes dynamics in string theory backgrounds of general type. We use an action, which interpolates between Nambu-Goto and Polyakov type actions. This allows us to give a unified description for the tensile and…
We introduce a new first order formulation of world-volume actions for p-branes with k-supersymmetry. In this language, which involves more auxiliary fields compensated by more local symmetries, the action is provided by a very compact,…
The mergings of energy levels associated with the breaking of PT symmetry in the model of Bender and Boettcher, and in its generalisation to incorporate a centrifugal term, are analysed in detail. Even though conventional WKB techniques…
We study phases and propagation of closed $p$-brane within the framework of effective field theory with higher-form global symmetries, i.e., {\it brane-field theory}. We extend our previous studies by including the kinetic term of the…
The formation of a confining string (or a p-brane) in a Poincare' invariant theory breaks spontaneously this symmetry which is thereby realized non-linearly in the effective action of these extended objects. As a consequence the form of the…
This report is an extension of previous one hep-th/9812189. Several quantum mechanical wave equations for $p$-branes are proposed. The most relevant $p$-brane quantum mechanical wave equations determine the quantum dynamics involving the…
Two-dimensional quantum gravity is identified as a second-class system which we convert into a first-class system via the Batalin-Fradkin (BF) procedure. Using the extended phase space method, we then formulate the theory in most general…
