It is known that, in the static gauge, the world-volume and the transverse Kaluza-Klein (KK) reductions of the O-plane effective actions on a circle satisfy the T-duality constraint for arbitrary base space background. In this paper we show…
In this paper we study the noncommutativity of a moving membrane with background fields. The open string variables are analyzed. Some scaling limits are studied. The equivalence of the magnetic and electric noncommutativities is…
We present a necessary condition for brane solutions to have their origins in string field theory. For such solutions, T-duality operations between IIA and IIB solutions should be well-defined. Nevertheless, not all S-brane solutions have…
We construct a dual formulation, with respect to the conventional PST formalism, of the M5-brane action propagating in a generic 11d supergravity background. Constraint analysis is performed to further justify that our theory has the…
We derive boundary states which describe configurations of multiple parallel branes with arbitrary open string states interactions in bosonic string theory. This is obtained by a careful discussion of the factorization of open/closed string…
T-duality (Fourier-Mukai duality) and properties of classical instanton moduli spaces can be used to deduce some properties of $\alpha^{\prime}$-corrected moduli spaces of branes for Type IIA string theory compactified on $K3$ or $T^4$.…
In this article we consider open strings with mixed boundary conditions (a combination of Neumann and Dirichlet conditions at each end). We discuss how their end points show a $D_p$-brane with NS-NS charge, i.e. a bound state of a D-brane…
We find an exact solution, with a nonzero net D-brane charge, in the boundary string field theory of brane-anti-brane pairs on a torus. We explicitly take the T-dual of this configuration. The Nahm-transformation of the instantons is…
The Kaluza-Klein monopole has been recognized as a string background with significant non-geometric features: it must appear "localized" to winding strings to match the NS5-brane's localization on the T-dual circle. In this work, we…
We revisit T-duality transformations for the open string via Buscher's procedure and work-out technical details which have been missing so far in the literature. We take into account non-trivial topologies of the world-sheet, we consider…
We construct twisted quantum bundles and adjoint sections on noncommutative $T^4$, and investigate relevant D-brane bound states with non-Abelian backgrounds. We also show that the noncommutative $T^4$ with non-Abelian backgrounds exhibits…
In this paper, we address how to implement T duality to the closed string tree cylinder amplitude between a Dp brane and a Dp$'$ brane with $p - p' = 2 \,n$. For this, we first compute the closed string tree cylinder amplitude between these…
We show that a D-brane in a group manifold given by a (twisted) conjugacy class is characterised by a gauge invariant two-form field determined in terms of the matrix of gluing conditions. Using a quantisation argument based on the path…
We study the D-brane spectrum of N=2 string orbifold theories using the boundary state formalism. The construction is carried out for orbifolds with isolated singularities, non-isolated singularities and orbifolds with discrete torsion. Our…
We attempt to settle the issue as to what is the correct non-abelian generalisation of the Born-Infeld action, via a consideration of the two-loop $\beta$--function for the non-abelian background gauge field in open string theory. An…
Type II string theory or M-theory contains a broad spectrum of gauge potentials. In addition to the standard $p$-form potentials, various mixed-symmetry potentials have been predicted, which may couple to exotic branes with non-standard…
In this paper we investigate about several configurations of two intersecting branes at arbitrary angles. We choose the viewpoint of a brane source and a brane probe and use the low-energy dynamics of p-branes. For each p-brane this…
We investigate the noncommutative gauge theories arising on the worldvolumes of D-branes in non-geometric backgrounds obtained by T-duality from twisted tori. We revisit the low-energy effective description of D-branes on three-dimensional…
We review and explain the relation between U-dual branes in string theory and mixed symmetry tensors of various degrees. In certain cases these mixed symmetry tensors can be related to diverse types of fluxes that play an important role in…
We calculate the long-range interactions between two simple branes placed parallel at a separation in diverse dimensions via an effective field theory approach. We also compute for the first time the explicit long-range interaction between…
