We study phase transitions induced by topological defects in Abelian gauge theories of open p-branes in (d+1) space-time dimensions. Starting from a massive antisymmetric tensor theory for open p-branes we show how the condensation of…
We consider the double field formulation of the closed bosonic string theory, and calculate the Poisson bracket algebra of the symmetry generators governing both general coordinate and local gauge transformations. Parameters of both of…
The interaction between a parallel brane-antibrane and brane-antibrane is investigated by regarding the brane-antibrane pair as a kink or anti-kink type tachyon condensed state. As the kink-type tachyon condensed state is known as a non-BPS…
We consider the Maxwell-Higgs system in the broken phase, described in terms of a Kalb-Ramond field interacting with the electromagnetic field through a topological coupling. We then study the creation operators of states which respectively…
By using the Poisson geometry, we develop a manifestly invariant and calculation-friendly formalism for handling $UOSp(2|1)$-supersymmetric field theories. In particular, the super-Langrangians are written solely in terms of superfields,…
Conformal invariance for bosonic strings in time-dependent backgrounds of graviton, dilaton and Kalb-Ramond field is obtained by imposing Weyl-beta functions to be homogeneous in time, to all orders in $\alpha^{'}$. This construction is…
Couplings between a closed string RR field and open strings are calculated in a system of coincident branes and antibranes of type II theory. The result can be written cleanly using the curvature of the superconnection.
A detailed Hamiltonian analysis for a five-dimensional Kalb-Ramond, massive Kalb-Ramond and St{\"{u}}eckelberg Kalb-Ramond theories with a compact dimension is performed. We develop a complete constraint program, then we quantize the theory…
We discuss a new class of string and p-brane models where the string/brane tension appears as an additional dynamical degree of freedom instead of being introduced by hand as an ad hoc dimensionfull scale. The latter property turns out to…
We construct all the possible non-relativistic, non-trivial, Galilei and Carroll k-contractions also known as k-1 p-brane contractions of the Maxwell algebra in $D+1$ space-time dimensions. $k$ has to do with the number of space-time…
In this work we consider the full interacting effective actions for fundamental strings and D-branes in arbitrary bosonic type II supergravity backgrounds. The explicit form of these actions is given in terms of component fields, up to…
The abelian $(p+1)$-form gauge field is inherently coupled to the $p$-brane worldvolume. After quantization, the corresponding $p$-form gauge transformation is associated with the local phase ambiguity of the $p$-brane wave functional. In…
This work is devoted to the study of tensor gauge fields on a string-like defect in six dimensions. This model is very successful in localizing fields of various spins only by gravitational interaction. Due to problems of field localization…
We show that the tachyonic kink solution on a pair of D-p-branes in the bosonic string theory can be identified with the D-(p-1)-brane of the same theory. We also speculate on the possibility of obtaining the D-(p-1)-brane as a tachyonic…
Starting from a recently proposed Abelian topological model in (2+1) dimensions, which involve the Kalb-Ramond two form field, we study a non-Abelian generalization of the model. An obstruction for generalization is detected. However we…
We propose a general action describing the dynamics of lightlike (LL) p-branes in any odd (p+1) world-volume dimensions. Next, we consider self-consistent coupling of \textsl{LL}-membranes (p=2) to D=4 Einstein-Maxwell system plus a D=4…
Using the boundary state formalism and thermo field dynamics approach, we study a D$p$-brane at finite temperature in which the background Kalb-Ramond field, a $U(1)$ gauge potential, and tachyon field are turned on together with a general…
