Complex manifolds with compatible metric have a naturally defined subspace of harmonic differential forms that satisfy Serre, Hodge, and conjugation duality, as well as hard Lefschetz duality. This last property follows from a…
We introduce a very simple, exactly solvable PT-symmetric non-Hermitian model with real spectrum, and derive a closed formula for the metric operator which relates the problem to a Hermitian one.
We systematically analyze supersymmetric D-branes in the type IIB plane wave background using Green-Schwarz superstring theory. We find several new supersymmetric oblique and curved D-branes. The supersymmetries preserved by various…
Generalization of harmonic superposition rule for the case of dependent choice of harmonic functions is given. Dependence of harmonic functions from all (relative and overall) transverse coordinates is considered using the Beltrami-Laplace…
We prove D=11 supermembrane theories wrapping around in an irreducible way over $S^{1} \times S^{1}\times M^{9}$ on the target manifold, have a hamiltonian with strict minima and without infinite dimensional valleys at the minima for the…
An exact solution, in which a D2-brane and an anti-D2-brane are connected by an elliptically tubular D2-brane, is obtained without any junction condition. The solution is shown to preserve one quarter of the supersymmetries of the type-IIA…
We consider pure D3-brane configurations of IIB string theory which lead to supersymmetric solutions containing an AdS$_3$ factor. They can provide new examples of AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$ examples on D3-branes whose worldvolume is partially…
We construct all possible orthogonally intersecting S-brane solutions in 11-dimensions corresponding to standard supersymmetric M-brane intersections. It is found that the solutions can be obtained by multiplying the brane and the…
The generalised calibration for a wrapped membrane is gauge equivalent to the supergravity three-form under which the membrane is electrically charged. Given the relevant calibration, one can go a long way towards constructing the…
We study the boundary states of D-branes wrapped around supersymmetric cycles in a general Calabi-Yau manifold. In particular, we show how the geometric data on the cycles are encoded in the boundary states. As an application, we analyze…
We formulate a general sufficiency criterion for discreteness of the spectrum of both supersymmmetric and non-su-persymmetric theories with a fermionic contribution. This criterion allows an analysis of Hamiltonians in complete form rather…
Hermitian bundle gerbes with connection are geometric objects for which a notion of surface holonomy can be defined for closed oriented surfaces. We systematically introduce bundle gerbes by closing the pre-stack of trivial bundle gerbes…
The Green-Schwarz action for an open superstring with additional boundary fermions, representing Chan-Paton factors, is studied at the classical level. The boundary geometry is described by a bundle, with fermionic fibres, over the super…
We apply supersymmetric localization to N=(2,2) gauged linear sigma models on a hemisphere, with boundary conditions, i.e., D-branes, preserving B-type supersymmetries. We explain how to compute the hemisphere partition function for each…
We perform canonical quantization of the open Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond (NSR) superstrings in the background of a D-brane with the NS B-field. If we choose the mixed boundary condition as a primary constraint, it generates a set of secondary…
We here generalize our previous construction [hep-th/0409019] of non-supersymmetric $p$-branes delocalized in one transverse spatial direction to two transverse spatial directions in supergravities in arbitrary dimensions ($d$). These…
We study the conditions to have supersymmetric D-branes on general {\cal N}=1 backgrounds with Ramond-Ramond fluxes. These conditions can be written in terms of the two pure spinors associated to the SU(3)\times SU(3) structure on T_M\oplus…
Configurations of two or more branes wrapping different homology cycles of space-time are considered and the amount of supersymmetry preserved is analysed, generalising the analysis of multiple branes in flat space. For K3…
We develop a supersymmetric field theoretical description of the Gaussian ensemble of the almost diagonal Hermitian Random Matrices. The matrices have independent random entries H_{ij} with parametrically small off-diagonal elements…
We show how the $T$--duality between $D$--branes is realized (i) on $p$--brane solutions $(p=0,\cdots ,9)$ of IIA/IIB supergravity and (ii) on the $D$--brane actions ($p=0,\cdots ,3)$ that act as source terms for the $p$--brane solutions.…
