We discuss issues involving p(D)- brane charge quantization and the normalization of effective actions, in string/M-theory. We also construct the action of (the bosonic sector of) eleven dimensional supergravity in the presence of two- and…
Gravitational couplings in bulk space-time include those terms which are fixed by scattering amplitude of strings and ambiguous terms that are coming from the field redefinitions. These field redefinitions can be fixed in the bulk by…
It was argued that there are two different descriptions of the effective Lagrangian of gauge fields on D-branes by non-commutative gauge theory and by ordinary gauge theory in the presence of a constant B field background. In the case of…
We consider systems of D6 branes in the presence of a nonzero $B$ field of different ranks. We study the scattering of gravitons in the corresponding supergravity backgrounds. We show that the nonzero $B$ field does not modify the form of…
Non-perturbative features of the derivative expansion of the effective action of a single D3-brane are obtained by considering scattering amplitudes of open and closed strings. This motivates expressions for the coupling constant dependence…
In a toy model we derive the gravitational equation on a self-gravitating curved D-brane. The effective theory on the brane is drastically changed from the ordinal Einstein equation. The net cosmological constant on the brane depends on a…
In Randall-Sundrum two D-brane system we derive the gravitational theory on the branes. It is turned out from the consistency that one D-brane has the negative tension brane under Randall-Sundrum tuning and both gauge fields on the brane…
Recently the construction of the non-abelian effective D-brane action was performed through order $\alpha'{}^3$ including the terms quadratic in the gauginos. This result can be tested by calculating the spectrum in the presence of constant…
In this thesis we discuss some nonperturbative and noncommutative aspects of string theory. We present low-energy background field solutions corresponding to various D-branes (and their bound states) and intersecting branes in flat and…
We probe the effective worldvolume theory of a set of coinciding D-branes by switching on constant electro-magnetic fields on them. The comparison of the mass spectrum predicted by string theory with the mass spectrum obtained from the…
We calculate small correction terms to gravitational potential near $p$-branes embedded in a constant NS $B$ field background in the context of M-theory or string theory. The normalizable wave functions of gravity fluctuations around the…
I discuss the scattering of a graviton (or a dilaton, or an anti-symmetric tensor) on two parallel static Dp-branes. The graviton belongs to a type II string in 10D.
By considering the B-field dynamical and studying its interaction with Ramond-Ramond (RR) background we observe the breaking of the B-field gauge symmetry in the effective action. This effect takes place due to non-perturbative coupling of…
In this work we will investigate how the non-commutativity arises into the string theory, \textit{i.e.}, how the bosonic string theory attaches to a D3-brane in the presence of magnetic fields. In order to accomplish the proposal, we…
The low energy effective theory for the Randall-Sundrum two-brane system is investigated with an emphasis on the role of the non-linear radion in the brane world. It is shown that the gravity on the brane world is described by a…
We consider a D-brane coupled with gravity in type IIB supergravity on S^5 and derive the effective theory on the D-brane in two different ways, that is, holographic and geometrical projection methods. We find that the effective equations…
This project explores the $D=11$ supergravity model and the properties of its p-brane ansatz. The initial field content (graviton, gravitino and the anti-symmetric tensor field) in the action of $D=11$ supergravity is explained in the…
We derive a low-energy effective theory for gravity with anti-D branes, which are essential to get de Sitter solutions in the type IIB string warped compactification, by taking account of gravitational backreactions of anti-D branes. In…
We review how to describe the stable non-BPS D-branes of type II string theory from a classical perspective, and discuss the properties of the space-time geometry associated to these configurations. This is relevant in order to see whether…
We extend the recently constructed double field theory formulation of the low-energy theory of the closed bosonic string to the heterotic string. The action can be written in terms of a generalized metric that is a covariant tensor under…
