We study boundary renormalization group flows of N=2 minimal models using Landau-Ginzburg description of B-type. A simple algebraic relation of matrices is relevant. We determine the pattern of the flows and identify the operators that…
We study the boundary states for the rational points in the moduli spaces of c=1 conformal and c=3/2 superconformal field theories, including the isolated Ginsparg points. We use the orbifold and simple-current techniques to relate the…
We determine the spectrum of D-string bound states in various classes of generalized type I vacuum configurations with sixteen and eight supercharges. The precise matching of the BPS spectra confirms the duality between unconventional type…
We systematically investigate open strings in the plane wave background of type IIB string theory. We carefully analyze possible boundary conditions for open strings and find static as well as time-dependent branes. The branes fall into…
We study systematically the open string modes of a general class of BPS intersections of branes. We work in the approximation in which one of the branes is considered as a probe embedded in the near-horizon geometry generated by the other…
We attempt to generalize the effective action for the D-brane-anti-D-brane system obtained from boundary superstring field theory (BSFT) by adding an extra D-brane to it to obtain a covariantized action for 2 D-branes and 1 anti-D-brane. We…
We investigate degeneracies of BPS states of D-branes on compact Calabi-Yau manifolds. We develop a factorization formula for BPS indices using attractor flow trees associated to multicentered black hole bound states. This enables us to…
We relate, in 10 and 11 dimensional supergravities, configurations of intersecting closed branes with vanishing binding energy to configurations where one of the branes opens and has its boundaries attached to the other. These boundaries…
We propose a new prescription of how to represent D-branes in Gepner models in more general homology classes than those in the previous constructions. The central role is played by a certain projection acting on the Recknagel-Schomerus…
We generalize the idea of boundary states to open string channel. They describe the emission and absorption of the open string in the presence of intersecting D-branes. We study the algebra between such states under the star products of…
We study BPS states in type IIA string compactification on a local Calabi-Yau 3-fold which are related to the BPS states of the E-string. Using Picard-Lefshetz transformations of the 3-cycles on the mirror manifold we determine…
We consider two Dirichlet p-branes with lower dimensional brane charges and their scattering. We first calculate the cylinder amplitude of open string with suitable boundary conditions. We compare this result with that in the IIB matrix…
We extend the deformation theory algorithm of matrix factorizations to systems with more than one D-brane. The obstructions to the deformations are F-term equations which can be integrated to an effective superpotential. We demonstrate the…
We study the boundary state associated with the decay of an unstable D-brane with uniform electric field, 1>e>0 in the string units. Compactifying the D-brane along the direction of the electric field, we find that the decay process is…
We investigate boundary dynamics of orbifold conformal field theory involving T-duality twists. Such models typically appear in contexts of non-geometric string compactifications that are called monodrofolds or T-folds in recent literature.…
In this note we discuss D-branes on T^4/Z_2 using the boundary states formalism. Explicit formulas for the untwisted boundary states inherited from the underlying T^4 and twisted states corresponding to branes wrapping collapsed 2-cycles at…
We consider D-branes in group manifolds, from the point of view of open strings and using the Born-Infeld action on the brane worldvolume. D-branes correspond to certain integral (twined) conjugacy classes. We explain the integrality…
Firstly, we generalize a semi-classical limit of open strings on D-branes in group manifolds. The limit gives rise to rigid open strings, whose dynamics can efficiently be described in terms of a matrix algebra. Alternatively, the dynamics…
We study supersymmetric boundary conditions in 3-dimensional N = 2 Landau-Ginzburg models and abelian gauge theories. In the Landau-Ginzburg model the boundary conditions that preserve (1,1) supersymmetry (A-type) and (2,0) supersymmetry…
The low-energy background field solutions corresponding to D-brane bound states which possess a difference in dimension of two are presented. These solutions are constructed using the T-duality map between the type IIA and IIB superstring…
