Generalized Wess-Zumino models which admit topologically non-trivial BPS saturated configurations along one compact, spatial dimension are investigated in various dimensions of space-time. We show that, in a representative model and for…
If a scalar field theory in (1+1) dimensions possesses soliton solutions obeying first order BPS equations, then, in general, it is possible to find an infinite number of related field theories with BPS solitons which obey closely related…
We construct 1/8, 1/4, and 1/2 BPS solutions spanned by diagonal elements of U(N) constant fluxes in the 6+1 dimensional U(N) super Yang-Mills theory on T^6 with topological stability. These solutions represent BPS bound states of D0, D2,…

We propose a novel and simple method of computing the volume of the moduli space of BPS solitons in supersymmetric gauge theory. We use a D-brane realization of vortices and T-duality relation to domain walls. We there use a special limit…
We explicitly write down the invariant supersymmetry conditions for branes with generic values of moduli and U-duality charges in various space-time dimensions $D \leq 10$. We then use these results to obtain new BPS states, corresponding…
Based on the concept of the partial breaking of global supersymmetry (PBGS), we derive the worldvolume superfield equations of motion for $N=1, D=4$ supermembrane, as well as for the space-time filling D2- and D3-branes, from nonlinear…
The vacuum structure and spectra of two-dimensional gauge theories with N=(2,2) supersymmetry are investigated. These theories admit a twisted mass term for charged chiral matter multiplets. In the case of a U(1) gauge theory with N chiral…
It was recently proposed that there exist stable supersymmetric phases for finite temperature superstings. This issue was investigated using an effective supergravity which takes into account massive winding modes. Such a theory admits BPS…
We study the 1/4 BPS equations in the eight dimensional noncommutative Yang-Mills theory found by Bak, Lee and Park. We explicitly construct some solutions of the 1/4 BPS equations using the noncommutative version of the ADHM-like…
We quantize the set of all quarter BPS brane probe solutions in global AdS_3 \times S^3 \times T^4/K3 found in arxiv:0709.1168 [hep-th]. We show that, generically, these solutions give rise to states in discrete representations of the…
We construct, in D=3,4,6 and 10 space-time dimensions, supersymmetric Lagrangians for free massless higher spin fields which belong to reducible representations of the Poincare group.The fermionic part of these models consists of…
Type II strings in D=5 contain particle-like 1/8 supersymmetric BPS states. In this note we give a string-network representation of such states by considering (periodic) non-planar $(p,q,r)$-string networks of eight dimensional type II…
We continue the investigation of supersymmetric extensions of baby Skyrme models in d=2+1 dimensions. In a first step, we show that the CP(1) form of the baby Skyrme model allows for the same N=1 SUSY extension as its O(3) formulation. Then…
Small amplitude inhomogeneous plane waves propagating in any direction in a homogeneously deformed Hadamard material are considered. Conditions for circular polarization are established. The analysis relies on the use of complex vectors (or…
Nonlinear `sigma' models in two dimensions have BPS solitons which are solutions of self- and anti-self-duality constraints. In this paper, we find their analogues for fuzzy sigma models on fuzzy spheres which were treated in detail by us…
We study classical M5 brane solutions in the probe limit in the $AdS_7 \times S^4$ spacetime geometry with worldvolume 3-form flux. These solutions describe the holography of codimension-4 defects in the 6d boundary dual $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$…
We construct a 1+1 dimensional superstring-bit model for D=3 Type IIB superstring. This low dimension model escapes the problems encountered in higher dimension models: (1) It possesses full Galilean supersymmetry; (2) For noninteracting…
We find new 1/8-BPS giant graviton solutions in $AdS_5 \times S^5$, carrying three angular momenta along $S^5$, and investigate their properties. Especially, we show that nonzero worldvolume gauge fields are admitted preserving…
We construct M5-branes in pp-wave background and find that they preserve exactly half of the background pp-wave supersymmetries. We explicitly write down the standard as well as supernumerary Killing spinors and find that their respective…
