The standard eleven-dimensional supergravity action depends on a three-form gauge field and does not allow direct coupling to five-branes. Using previously developed methods, we construct a covariant eleven-dimensional supergravity action…
We consider a generic scenario of spontaneous breaking of supersymmetry in the hidden sector within N=1 supersymmetric orientifold compactifications of type II string theories with D-branes that support semi-realistic chiral gauge theories.…
It is shown how two-dimensional states corresponding to D-branes arise in orbifolds of topologically massive gauge and gravity theories. Brane vertex operators naturally appear in induced worldsheet actions when the three-dimensional gauge…
An anti-D3-brane plays a crucial role in the construction of semi-realistic cosmological models in string theory. Part of its action provides an uplift term that has been used to lift AdS solutions to phenomenologically viable dS vacua in…
An action for supersymmetric D0-branes in curved backgrounds is obtained by dimensional reduction of N=1 ten-dimensional supergravity coupled to super Yang-Mills system to 0+1 dimensions. The resultant action exhibits the coset-space…
We give an explicit form of the PST-type SL(2;R)-covariant super D3-brane action for the flat Minkowski background. To this end, we follow the prescription developed by Hatsuda and Kamimura. As an application of the action, we obtain the…
We review the salient features of spacetime and worldvolume supersymmetric super p-brane actions. These are sigma models for maps from a worldvolume superspace to the target superspace. For p-branes, the symmetries of the model depend…
The Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) action of the 3-dimensional brane for its dynamical embeddings and the gauge fields has been studied. The evolution of both the D3-brane and the ambient space has been obtained. For the special constraint put on…
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…
We generalize the current algebra of constraints of U-duality-covariant critical superstrings to include the generator responsible for the dynamics of the fundamental brane. This allows us to define $\kappa$ symmetry and to write a…
The explicit (all-order in fermions) form of the kappa-symmetric $D3$ brane probe action was previously found in the two maximally supersymmetric type IIB vacua: flat space and $AdS_5 \times S^5$. Here we present the form of the action in…
Here we place the Latex typeset of the paper M. Pavsic, Phys. Lett. A116 (1986) 1-5. In the paper we presented the picture that our spacetime is a 3-brane moving in a higher dimensional space. The dynamical equations were derived from the…
Holographic D-brane constructions, governed by the Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) action, play a central role in the AdS/CFT correspondence, particularly in applications to quantum chromodynamics and condensed matter systems. In this work, we…
We propose a method for constructing pairs of nonsupersymmetric gauge theories related by S-duality. Starting from a known S-duality of supersymmetric theories realized on the worldvolume of D3 branes in type IIB string theory, a new…
We systematically study supersymmetric embeddings of D-brane probes of different dimensionality in the AdS_5xY^{p,q} background of type IIB string theory. The main technique employed is the kappa symmetry of the probe's worldvolume theory.…
This paper presents a 6d world-volume action that describes the dynamics of the M theory five-brane in a flat 11d space-time background. The world-volume action has global 11d super-Poincare invariance, as well as 6d general coordinate…
The Noether currents associated with the non-linearly realized super-Poincare' symmetries of the Green-Schwarz (Nambu-Goto-Akulov-Volkov) action for a non-BPS p=2 brane embedded in a N=1, D=4 target superspace are constructed. The R…
We construct supersymmetric brane solutions in string and M-theory with moduli parameters that depend arbitrarily on the light-cone time. Our investigation aims in understanding time dependent phenomena in gauge theories at strong coupling…
The supersymmetry arises in certain theories of fermions coupled to gauge fields and gravity in a spacetime of 11 dimensions. The dynamical brane background has mainly been studied for the class of purely bosonic solutions only, but recent…
If the AdS/CFT correspondence is valid in the Coulomb branch, the potential between waves on a pair of test branes in the bulk should be reproduced by the relevant Yang-Mills theory effective action on the boundary. Earlier work has…
