We describe the intersecting brane configurations, consisting of NS-branes, D4-branes(and anti-D4-branes), in type IIA string theory corresponding to the meta-stable nonsupersymmetric vacua of N=1 SU(N_c) x SU(N_c') x SU(N_c'') gauge theory…
We construct supergravity solutions corresponding to space-like branes in string theory. Our approach is to apply the usual solution generating techniques to an appropriate time-dependent solution of the eleven dimensional vacuum Einstein…
A supertube is a supersymmetric configuration in string theory which occurs when a pair of branes spontaneously polarizes and generates a new dipole charge extended along a closed curve. The dipole charge of a codimension-2 supertube is…
We explore contributions to the 4D effective superpotential which arise from Euclidean D3 branes (``instantons'') that intersect space-filling D-branes. These effects can perturb the effective field theory on the space-filling branes by…
We construct non-BPS dyon solutions of N=4 SU(n) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. These solutions are the worldvolume solitons which describe non-BPS Type IIB non-planar string junctions connecting n parallel D3-branes. The solutions are…
The effective four-dimensional supergravity of M-theory compactified on the orbifold S^1/Z_2 and a Calabi-Yau threefold includes in general moduli supermultiplets describing massless modes of five-branes. For each brane, one of these fields…
We find the supergravity solution sourced by a supertube: a (1/4)-supersymmetric D0-charged IIA superstring that has been blown up to a cylindrical D2-brane by angular momentum. The supergravity solution captures all essential features of…
We study D-branes of the ${SL(2,\bR)}$ WZW model, and of its discrete orbifolds. Gluing the currents by group automorphisms leads to three types of D-branes: two-dimensional hyperbolic planes ($H_2$), de Sitter branes (dS$_2$), or…
We construct dyon solutions on a collection of coincident D4-branes, obtained by applying the group of T-duality transformations to a type I SO(32) superstring theory in 10 dimensions. The dyon solutions, which are exact, are obtained from…
We investigate 4D dS solutions with co-dimension two branes and finite 4D Planck mass in six dimensions. We present the conditions under which six-dimensional compactifications with holomorphic axion-dilaton field or models with pure…
This proceeding is based on arXiv:1105.0591 [hep-th] where we consider breaking of supersymmetry in intersecting D-brane configurations by slight deviation of the angles from their supersymmetric values. We compute the masses generated by…
We consider SO(4) x SO(6) invariant type IIB string solution describing D3-branes superposed with D-instantons homogeneously distributed over D3-brane world-volume. In the near D3-brane horizon limit this background interpolates between…
The non-commutative geometry of a large auxiliary $B$-field simplifies the construction of D-branes as solitons in open string field theory. Similarly, fundamental strings are constructed as localized flux tubes in the string field theory.…
It was shown in arXiv:1410.7168 that compactifying $D=6$, $\mathcal{N}=(1,0)$ ungauged supergravity coupled to a single tensor multiplet on S$^3$ one gets a particular $D=3$, $\mathcal{N}=4$ gauged supergravity which is a consistent…
We construct generalized 11D supergravity solutions of fully localized intersecting D2/D4 brane systems. These solutions are obtained by embedding six-dimensional resolved Eguchi-Hanson conifolds lifted to M-theory. We reduce these…
We study the dyon electric charge of D6-branes as eleven dimensional KK-monopoles. We observe that the dyon charge is intimately related with the existence of gauge connections and antisymmetric fields on the brane world volume.
We study $p=-1$ D-brane in type IIB superstring theory. In addition to RR instanton, we obtain the RR charged wormhole solution in the Einstein frame. This corresponds to the ten-dimensional singular wormhole solution with infinite…
