We study the most general supersymmetric warped M-theory backgrounds with non-trivial G-flux of the type R^{1,2} x M_8 and AdS_3 x M_8. We give a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for preservation of supersymmetry which are phrased…
The block-orthogonal generalization of the Majumdar-Papapetrou type solutions for the sigma-model studied earlier are obtained and corresponding solutions with p-branes are considered. The existence of solutions and the number of…

An S-brane solution with two non-composite electric branes and a set of l scalar fields is considered. The intersection rule for branes corresponds to the Lie algebra A_2. The solution contains five factor spaces with the fifth one…
We present a simplified formulation of open intersection numbers, as an alternative to the theory initiated by Pandharipande, Solomon and Tessler. The relevant moduli spaces consist of Riemann surfaces (either with or without boundary) with…

Linear equivalence is a criterion that compares submanifolds in the same homology class. We show that, in the context of type II compactifications with D-branes, this concept translates to the kinetic mixing between U(1) gauge symmetries…

In this paper we discuss D-branes in the Melvin background and its supersymmetric generalizations. In particular we determine the D-brane spectra in these backgrounds by constructing their boundary states explicitly, where some of the…
We investigate D-branes with maximal symmetry on general group manifolds in terms of boundary states and effective actions. We show that in large $k$ limit boundary states with an suitable Wilson line form boundary states of the other types…
We consider p-branes with one or more circular directions fibered over the transverse space. The fibration, in conjunction with the transverse space having a blown-up cycle, enables these p-brane solutions to be completely regular. Some…
We study fully localized BPS brane solutions in classical supergravity using a perturbative approach to the coupled Born-Infeld/bulk supergravity system. We derive first order bulk supergravity fields for world-volume solitons corresponding…
We discuss dual formulations of D-brane intersections. The duality is between world volume field theories of different dimensionalities which both describe the same D-brane configuration but are valid in complementary regions of parameter…
We discuss two conjectures. (I) For each x_1,...,x_n \in R (C) there exist y_1,...,y_n \in R (C) such that \forall i \in {1,...,n} |y_i| \leq 2^{2^{n-2}} \forall i \in {1,...,n} (x_i=1 \Rightarrow y_i=1) \forall i,j,k \in {1,...,n}…
Complete intersections inside rational homogeneous varieties provide interesting examples of Fano manifolds. For example, if $X = \cap_{i=1}^r D_i \subset G/P$ is a general complete intersection of $r$ ample divisors such that $K_{G/P}^*…
Given a minuscule representation of a simple Lie algebra, we find an algebraic model for the action of a regular element and show that these models can be glued together over the adjoint quotient, viewed as the set of all regular conjugacy…
The decomposition of the tensor product of a positive and a negative discrete series representation of the Lie algebra su(1,1) is a direct integral over the principal unitary series representations. In the decomposition discrete terms can…
This is a noncommutative-geometric study of the semiclassical dynamics of finite topological D-brane systems. Starting from the formulation in terms of A -infinity categories, I show that such systems can be described by the noncommutative…
We determine an intersection rule for extremal p-branes which are localized in their relative transverse coordinates by solving, in a purely bosonic context, the equations of motion of gravity coupled to a dilaton and n-form field…
A bracket is a function that assigns a number to each monomial in variables \tau_0, \tau_1, ... We show that any bracket satisfying the string and the dilaton relations gives rise to a power series lying in the algebra A generated by the…
