The bosonic content of string theory in curved background of multidimensional structure with p-branes has a systematic geometrical description as an effective sigma-model of gravity in lower dimension (say 3+1) with additional interacting…
The elementary and solitonic supersymmetric $p$-brane solutions to supergravity theories form families related by dimensional reduction, each headed by a maximal (`stainless') member that cannot be isotropically dimensionally oxidized into…
We review a class of models of dynamical supersymmetry breaking, and give a unified description of these models.
We present an action functional and derive equations of motion for a coupled system of a bosonic Dp--brane and an open string ending on the Dp-brane. With this example we address the key issues of the recently proposed method…
We propose a simple method to reduce a general p-form electrodynamics with respect to the standard Gauss constraints. The canonical structure of the reduced theory displays a p-dependent sign which makes the essential difference between…
T-branes are supersymmetric configurations described by multiple Dp-branes with worldvolume flux and non-commuting vacuum expectation values for two of the worldvolume scalars. When these values are much larger than the string scale this…
In this paper we investigate about several configurations of two intersecting branes at arbitrary angles. We choose the viewpoint of a brane source and a brane probe and use the low-energy dynamics of p-branes. For each p-brane this…
We study the dynamics of the probe fundamental string in the field background of the partially localized supergravity solution for the fundamental string ending on Dp-brane. We separately analyze the probe dynamics for its motion along the…
We study codimension one branes, i.e. p-branes in (p+2)-dimensions, in the superembedding approach for the cases where the worldvolume superspace is embedded in a minimal target superspace with half supersymmetry breaking. This singles out…
We study the dynamics of fractional branes at toric singularities, including cones over del Pezzo surfaces and the recently constructed Y^{p,q} theories. We find that generically the field theories on such fractional branes show dynamical…
We discuss the dynamical D$p$-brane solutions describing any number of D$p$-branes whose relative orientations are given by certain SU(2) rotations. These are the generalization of the static angled D$p$-brane solutions. We study the…
We give a classification of all multiple intersections of D-branes in ten dimensions and M-branes in eleven dimensions that corresponds to threshold BPS bound states. The residual supersymmetry of these composite branes is determined. By…
The dynamics of even topological open membranes relies on Nambu Brackets. Consequently, such 2p-branes can be quantized through the consistent quantization of the underlying Nambu dynamical structures. This is a summary construction relying…
Non-extremal intersecting p-brane solutions of gravity coupled with several antisymmetric fields and dilatons in various space-time dimensions are constructed. The construction uses the same algebraic method of finding solutions as in the…
The structure of states of the perturbed p-spin spherical spin-glass is analyzed. At low enough free energy metastable states have a supersymmetric structure, while at higher free energies the supersymmetry is broken. The transition between…
A version of the kappa-symmetric super D-p-brane action is presented in which the tension is a dynamical variable, equal to the flux of a p-form worldvolume gauge field. The Lagrangian is shown to be invariant under all (super)isometries of…
We argue that a description of supersymmetric extended objects from a unified geometric point of view requires an enlargement of superspace. To this aim we study in a systematic way how superspace groups and algebras arise from Grassmann…
We generalize to dimension $p>1$ the notion of string structure and discuss the related obstruction. We apply our results to a model of bosonic $p$-branes propagating on a principal $G$-bundle, coupled to a Yang--Mills field and an…
We examine general properties of superembeddings, i.e., embeddings of supermanifolds into supermanifolds. The connection between an embedding procedure and the method of non-linearly realised supersymmetry is clarified, and we demonstrate…
In this work we investigate connections between superalgebras and their realizations in terms of particles, branes and field theory models. We start from Poincar\'e superalgebras with brane charges and study its representations. The…
