New exact string solutions in non-constant background fields are found and it is shown that some of them are compatible with the boundary conditions for the open string - D-brane system. Extension of the constraint algebra is proposed and…

By integrating the Seiberg-Witten differential equation in a special path, we write ordinary gauge fields in terms of their non-commutative counterparts up to three non-commutative gauge fields. We then use this change of variables to write…
In N=1, 2D superstring theory in the linear dilaton background, there exists falling D0-branes that are described by time-dependent boundary states. These falling D0-brane boundary states can be obtained by adapting the FZZT boundary states…
We develop quantization aspects of our Liouville approach to non-critical strings, proposing a path-integral formulation of a second quantization of string theory, that incorporates naturally the couplings of string sources to background…
We present general formulae for the TsT transformation (T-duality, shift, T-duality) of type II string backgrounds and open string boundary conditions. The TsT transformation provides a systematic procedure to find string theory duals of…
For background geometries whose metric contain a scale $\gamma$ we reformulate the Born-Infeld D-brane action in terms of $\epsilon \equiv \gamma /(2\pi \alpha ')$. This may be taken as a starting point for various perturbative treatments…
In this paper we establish the existence of the extended Dirichlet space for nonlinear Dirichlet forms under mild conditions. We employ it to introduce and characterize criticality (recurrence) and subcriticality (transience) and establish…
We use the Dirac-Born-Infeld action on Dp-brane background to find the tubular bound state of a D2 with $m$ D0-branes and $n$ fundamental strings. The fundamental strings may be the circular strings along the cross section of tube or the…
We present an approach to handle Dirichlet type nonlocal boundary conditions for nonlocal diffusion models with a finite range of nonlocal interactions. Our approach utilizes a linear extrapolation of prescribed boundary data. A novelty is,…
The crucial problem of how the dilaton field is stabilized at a phenomenologically acceptable value in string theories remains essentially unsolved. We show that the usual scenario of assuming that the dilaton is fixed by the (SUSY…
Building on earlier work, we construct linear sigma models for strings on curved spaces in the presence of branes. Our models include an extremely general class of brane-worldvolume gauge field configurations. We explain in an accessible…
We explore a particular approach to study D-brane boundary states in Berkovits' pure spinor formalism of superstring theories. In this approach one constructs the boundary states in the relevant conformal field theory by relaxing the pure…
We consider computing the on-shell disk action of open-closed string field theory as a gauge-invariant way of capturing the shift in D-brane tension that is induced by a deformation of the bulk CFT. We study the effect of bulk matter…
