Nonrelativistic (NR) string theory was discovered as a framework that underlies and unifies the various noncommutative open string (NCOS) theories, which were originally envisioned as surprising exceptions to the maxim that all string…

We develop an operator formalism to compute scattering amplitudes of arbitrary bosonic string states in the background of many D-branes. Specifically, we construct a suitable boundary state which we use to saturate the multi-Reggeon vertex…

We carefully analyze the supersymmetry algebra of closed strings and open strings in a type IIB plane wave background. We use eight component chiral spinors, SO(8) Majorana-Weyl spinors, in light-cone gauge to provide a useful basis of…

Tensionless string theory on AdS3 x S3 x T4, as captured by a free symmetric product orbifold, has a large set of conserved currents which can be usefully organised in terms of representations of a N=(4,4) supersymmetric higher spin…

We construct the six-dimensional Lagrangian for the massless twisted open strings with one end-point ending on a stack of D5 and the other on a stack of D9 branes, interacting with the gauge multiplets living respectively on the D5 and D9…

Recent theories predict dissipationless spin current induced by an electric field in doped semiconductors. Nevertheless, the charge current is still dissipative in these systems. In this work, we theoretically predict the dissipationless…

String algebras, in the usual sense, are finite-dimensional algebras over a given ground field. We recall a generalisation of the definition of a string algebra, which was introduced in a previous paper of the author. This generalisation…

Fractional strings in the spectrum of states of open strings attached to a multiply wound D-brane is explained. We first describe the fractional string states in the low-energy effective theory where the topology of multiple winding is…

We use the new nilpotent formulation of open-closed string field theory to explore the limit where the number $N$ of identical D-branes of the starting background is large. By reformulating the theory in terms of the 't Hooft coupling…

Recently Das and Mathur found that the leading order Hawking emission rate of neutral scalars by near-extremal $D=5$ black holes is exactly reproduced by a string theoretic model involving intersecting D-branes. We show that the agreement…

Open superstring theory is formulated in terms of a nondegenerate supertranslation algebra. A supercharge for a tachyonic superstring can be also defined classically by taking into account the leakage of the supercurrent which is…

String theory gives S matrix elements om which is not possible to read any gauge information. Using factorization we go off shell in the simplest and most naive way and we read which are the vertices suggested by string. To compare with the…

We use rotation of one D-brane with respect to the other to reveal the hidden structure of D-branes in type-II theories. This is done by calculation of the interaction amplitude for two different parallel and angled branes. The analysis of…

In this note we describe how N=1 SQCD-like theories with a large number of flavors can be given a dual description in terms of a string background containing a large number of additional D5-branes. The dual geometries account for the…

We apply stochastic quantization method to Kostov's matrix-vector models for the second quantization of orientable strings with Chan-Paton like factors, including both open and closed strings. The Fokker-Planck hamiltonian deduces an…

In this note we describe hadrons: mesons and baryons as strings with electric charges on their endpoints. We consider here only the neutral system with opposite charges coupled to an external constant electric and magnetic fields. We derive…

In the context of the superstring theory, we calculate the radiation amplitude of a general massless closed string from the interaction of two parallel D$p$-branes. The background field is the constant antisymmetric tensor $B_{\mu\nu}$, and…

We study open strings on giant gravitons (D-branes on cycles) in the ABJM/$AdS_4\times \mathbb{CP}^3$ correspondence. We find that their energy spectrum has the same form as the one for closed strings, with a nontrivial function of the…

Considering transformations in the basis of fundamental fields on a principal fiber bundle, without modification in the space-time sector, we construct an algebra GA, which we call Glashow algebra. The structure constants of this algebra…

We consider string perturbative expansion in the presence of D-branes imbedded in orbifolded space-time. In the regime where the string coupling is weak and $\alpha'\to 0$, the string perturbative expansion coincides with `t Hooft's large N…
