A low-energy background field solution is presented which describes several D-membranes oriented at angles with respect to one another. The mass and charge densities for this configuration are computed and found to saturate the BPS bound,…
We construct some new brane solutions in M-theory, based on the minimal surfaces. In particular, we consider the anti-self-dual Nutku geometry, and embed it in the membranes and five-branes of the eleven-dimensional supergravity. We…
We construct 1/8, 1/4, and 1/2 BPS solutions spanned by diagonal elements of U(N) constant fluxes in the 6+1 dimensional U(N) super Yang-Mills theory on T^6 with topological stability. These solutions represent BPS bound states of D0, D2,…
We find all possible static embeddings of a 4-brane in any dimension-6 spacetime with 4-dimensional Poincare symmetry and a negative cosmological constant, subject to orbifolding across the brane. Our new solutions allow intersecting branes…

We discuss the worldvolume description of intersecting D-branes, including the metric on the moduli space of deformations. We impose a choice of static gauge that treats all the branes on an equal footing and describes the intersection of…
We investigate the possibility of extending non-extreme black hole solutions made of intersecting M-branes to those with two non-extreme deformation parameters, similar to Reissner-Nordstr{\o}m solutions. General analysis of possible…
We consider D-branes of open superstrings in the AdS_5 x S^5 background. The possible configurations of D-branes preserving half of supersymmetries are classified by analyzing the kappa-invariance of an open superstring in a covariant…
A new class of warped Anti-de Sitter solutions is found, arising as the near-horizon region of various semi-localized brane intersections. The dual gauge theories of AdS in warped spacetimes have reduced supersymmetry, which is pertinent to…

We give a model-independent derivation of general intersecting rules for spacelike branes (S-branes) in arbitrary dimensions $d$. This is achieved by directly solving bosonic field equations for supergravity coupled to a dilaton and…
We review an approach to the construction and classification of p-brane solitons in arbitrary dimensions, with an emphasis on those that arise in toroidally-compactified M-theory. Procedures for constructing the low-energy supergravity…
We construct and analyze D-branes in superstring theories in even dimensions less than ten. The backgrounds under study are supersymmetric R^{d-1,1} \times SL(2,R)_k / U(1) where the level of the supercoset is tuned such as to provide bona…
A geometrical form of the supersymmetry conditions for D-branes on arbitrary type II supersymmetric backgrounds is derived, as well as the associated BPS bounds. The treatment is general and allows to consider, for instance, non-static…

Intersecting p-branes can be viewed as higher-dimensional interpretations of multi-charge extremal p-branes, where some of the individual p-branes undergo diagonal dimensional oxidation, while the others oxidise vertically. Although the…
We construct gauge-invariant and U-duality covariant expressions for Wess-Zumino terms corresponding to general Dp-branes (for any p<D) in arbitrary 2<D<11 dimensions. A distinguishing feature of these Wess-Zumino terms is that they contain…
We study the non-linear realization of supersymmetry. We classify all lower dimensional operators, describing effective interactions of the Goldstino with Standard Model fields. Besides a universal coupling to the energy momentum tensor of…
