The action for a non-BPS p=2 brane embedded in a flat N=1, D=4 target superspace is obtained through the method of nonlinear realizations of the associated super-Poincare symmetries. The brane excitation modes correspond to the…
We show that the Witten covariant phase space for p-branes with thickness in an arbitrary background is endowed of a symplectic potential, which although is not important to the dynamics of the system, plays a relevant role on the phase…
A systematic method to derive the Hamiltonian and Nambu form for the shallow water equations, using the conservation for energy and potential enstrophy, is presented. Different mechanisms, such as vortical flows and emission of gravity…
Models for RNA secondary structures (the topology of folded RNA) without pseudo knots are disordered systems with a complex state-space below a critical temperature. Hence, a complex dynamical (glassy) behavior can be expected, when…
The stability conditions for coordinate gauge independent perturbations of brane-worlds are analyzed. It is shown that, these conditions lead to the Einstein-Hilbert dynamics and to a confined gauge potential, independently of models and…
When considering flows in biological membranes, they are usually treated as flat, though more often than not, they are curved surfaces, even extremely curved, as in the case of the endoplasmic reticulum. Here, we study the topological…
The mechanical properties of thermally excited two-dimensional crystalline membranes can depend dramatically on their geometry and topology. A particularly relevant example is the effect on the crumpling transition of holes in the membrane.…
We consider probe p-branes and Dp-branes dynamics in D-dimensional string theory backgrounds of general type. Unified description for the tensile and tensionless branes is used. We obtain exact solutions of their equations of motion and…
We propose a Lorentz covariant matrix model as a nonperturbative formulation of the bosonic M2-brane in M-theory. Unlike previous approaches relying on the light-cone gauge or symmetry-based constructions, our model retains full…
Following hep-th/0412336 we use the non-linear realisation of the semi-direct product of E11 and its vector representation to construct brane dynamics. The brane moves through a spacetime which arises in the non-linear realisation from the…
We consider the DBI action for the D-branes with the dynamic embeddings in the background produced by p-branes. For the D-brane with the special topology we obtain two Hublle parameters on this brane. The condition for the equality of these…
We give a preliminary discussion of how the addition of extra coordinates in M-theory, which together with the original ones parametrise a U-fold, can serve as a tool for formulating brane dynamics with manifest U-duality. The redundant…
We suggest that the static configurations of M-theory may be described by the matrix regularisation of the supermembrane theory in static regime. We compute the long range interaction between a M2-brane and an anti-M2-brane in agreement…
We study the Gepner model description of D-branes in Calabi-Yau manifolds with singular curves. From a geometrical point of view, the resolution of singularities leads to additional homology cycles around which branes can wrap. Using…
We have found that kappa-symmetry allows a covariant quantization provided the ground state of the theory is strictly massive. For D-p-branes a Hamiltonian analysis is performed to explain the existence of a manifestly supersymmetric and…
Recently Ooguri and Yamazaki proposed a statistical model of melting crystals to count BPS bound states of certain D-brane configurations on toric Calabi--Yau manifolds [arXiv:0811.2801]. This construction relied on a set of consistency…
We study hyper-elliptic Nambu flows associated with some $n$ dimensional maps and show that discrete integrable systems can be reproduced as flows of this class.
Biomembranes wrapping cells and organelles are not only the partitions that separate the insides but also dynamic fields for biological functions accompanied by membrane shape changes. In this review, we discuss the spatiotemporal patterns…
A motile cell, when stimulated, shows a dramatic increase in the activity of its membrane, manifested by the appearance of dynamic membrane structures such as lamellipodia, filopodia and membrane ruffles. The external stimulus turns on…
We propose a correspondence between brane-antibrane systems and stable triples (E_1,E_2,T), where E_1,E_2 are holomorphic vector bundles and the tachyon T is a map between them. We demonstrate that, under the assumption of holomorphicity,…
