A general scheme to find tachyon boundary states is developed within the framework of the theory of KP hierarchy. The method is applied to calculate correlation function of intersecting D-branes and rederived the results of our previous…

We evaluate string one-loop contributions to the Kahler metric of D-brane moduli (positions and Wilson lines), in toroidal orientifolds with branes at angles. Contributions due to bulk states in the loop are known, so we focus on the…

We analyze six-dimensional supergravity theories coming from intersecting brane models on the toroidal orbifold T^4/Z_2. We use recently developed tools for mapping general 6D supergravity theories to F-theory to identify F-theory…

We calculate the one-loop Yukawa couplings and threshold corrections for supersymmetric local models of branes at singularities in type IIB string theory. We compute the corrections coming both from wavefunction and vertex renormalisation.…

This paper extends the study, initiated by Rozowsky and Thorn [1], of gauge fields in interaction with Dirac fields living on separated parallel 1-branes. In a lightcone description, replacing static point sources by 1-brane sources allows…

Techniques are developed for exploring the complete space of intersecting brane models on an orientifold. The classification of all solutions for the widely-studied T^6/Z_2 x Z_2 orientifold is made possible by computing all combinations of…

We present orientifold models of type IIA string theory with D8-branes compactified on a two torus times a four dimensional orbifold. The orientifold group is chosen such that one coordinate of the two torus is reversed when applying…

We discuss the one loop effects of massless fermion fields on the low energy vector brane-to-brane propagators in the framework of two QED brane-world scenarios. We show that one loop photon brane-to-brane propagator has a power law…

We calculate tree level three and four point scattering amplitudes in type II string models with matter fields localized at the intersections of D-brane wrapping cycles. The analysis of the three point amplitude is performed in the context…

We describe the general geometrical framework of brane world constructions in orientifolds of type IIA string theory with D6-branes wrapping 3-cycles in a Calabi-Yau 3-fold, and point out their immediate phenomenological relevance. These…

We clarify certain aspects and discuss extensions of the recently introduced string D-instanton calculus (hep-th/0609191). The one-loop determinants are related to one-loop open string threshold corrections in intersecting D6-brane models.…

We perform a complete analysis of one-loop threshold corrections to the gauge couplings of fractional D6-branes. This includes besides SU(N) also symplectic, orthogonal and massless Abelian gauge factors and the full computation of…

We study various aspects of the renormalization of the Resonance Chiral Theory at the one-loop level using a spin-one resonance propagator as a concrete example. We calculate explicitly the one-loop self-energy within the antisymmetric…

We compute the two-point functions for chiral matter states in toroidal intersecting D6-brane models. In particular, we provide the techniques to calculate Moebius strip diagrams including the worldsheet instanton contribution.

We analyze one loop scattering amplitudes of the massless states on a stack of D3-branes. We use the vertex operators that have been obtained in the direct open string analysis developed in arXiv:0708.3452. The method does not have the…

In phenomenological models with D-branes, there are in general open-string massless scalar fields, in addition to closed-string massless moduli fields corresponding to the compactification. It is interesting to focus on the fate of such…

Intersecting Dp-branes often give rise to chiral fermions living on their intersections. We study the construction of four-dimensional chiral gauge theories by considering configurations of type II D(3+n)-branes wrapped on non-trivial…

We compute Yukawa couplings in type IIa string theory compactified on a six-torus in the presence of intersecting D6-branes. The six-torus is generated by an SO(12) root lattice. Yukawa couplings are expressed as sums over worldsheet…

We present an analytic technique for evaluating single cuts for one-loop integrands, where exactly one propagator is taken to be on shell. Our method extends the double-cut integration formalism of one-loop amplitudes to the single-cut…
