We explore the stringy structure of 1/2-BPS bound states of NS fivebranes carrying momentum or fundamental string charge, in the decoupling limits leading to little string theory and to AdS3/CFT2 duality. We develop an exact worldsheet…
We show that the conformally invariant boundary conditions for the three-state Potts model are exhausted by the eight known solutions. Their structure is seen to be similar to the one in a free field theory that leads to the existence of…
Generalised Complex Geometry provides a natural interpretation of the $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetry conditions for warped solutions of type II supergravity as differential equations on polyforms on the internal manifold. Written in this…
We present a large and universal class of new boundary states which break part of the chiral symmetry in the underlying bulk theory. Our formulas are based on coset constructions and they can be regarded as a non-abelian generalization of…
Theoretical and phenomenological studies indicate that the QCD coupling \alpha_s(Q^2) freezes in the infrared. Hadrons may then be described by a perturbative expansion around "Born" states bound only by a confining potential. A linear…
We introduce p-1 pseudocharacters in the space of (1,p) model vacuum torus amplitudes to complete the distinguished basis in the 2p-dimensional fusion algebra to a basis in the whole (3p-1)-dimensional space of torus amplitudes, and the…
We show that the construction of BPS-type equations for non-extremal black holes due to Miller et. al. can be extended to branes of arbitrary dimension and, more importantly, to time-dependent solutions. We call these first-order equations…
We construct various boundary states in the coset conformal field theory G/H. The G/H theory admits the twisted boundary condition if the G theory has an outer automorphism of the horizontal subalgebra that induces an automorphism of the H…
We study breaking and restoration of supersymmetry in five-dimensional theories by determining the mass spectrum of fermions from their equations of motion. Boundary conditions can be obtained from either the action principle by extremizing…
Certain type II string non-threshold BPS bound states are shown to be related to non-static backgrounds in 11-dimensional theory. The 11-d counterpart of the bound state of NS-NS and R-R type IIB strings wound around a circle is a pure…
In this article, we investigate zero-modes for a dynamical (rotating-moving) D$p$-brane, coupled to the electromagnetic and tachyonic background fields. This work is done by the boundary state methods, in three cases of bosonic and…
We study the boundary states of (p', p) rational conformal field theories having a W symmetry of the type A(r) using the multi-component free-field formalism. The classification of primary fields for these models given in the literature is…
The low-energy background field solutions corresponding to D-brane bound states which possess a difference in dimension of two are presented. These solutions are constructed using the T-duality map between the type IIA and IIB superstring…
We consider N=2 superconformal theories defined on a 3+1 dimensional hyperplane intersection of two sets of M5 branes. These theories have (tensionless) BPS string solitons. We use a dual supergravity formulation to deduce some of their…
We study the BPS states of a D6-brane wrapping the conifold and bound to collections of D2 and D0 branes. We find that in addition to the complexified Kahler parameter of the rigid sphere it is necessary to introduce an extra real parameter…
In this talk we are going to review a method to construct the thermal boundary states of the thermal string in the TFD approach. The class of thermal boundary states presented here is derived from the BPS D-branes of the type II GS…
We determine the spectrum of D-string bound states in various classes of generalized type I vacuum configurations with sixteen and eight supercharges. The precise matching of the BPS spectra confirms the duality between unconventional type…
Bound states of BPS particles in five-dimensional N=2 supergravity are counted by a topological index. We compute this bound state index exactly for two and three black holes as a function of the SU(2)_L angular momentum. The required…
We determine the boundary states, associated with a fractional D$p$-brane in the presence of the Kalb-Ramond field and a $U(1)$ gauge potential. The background spacetime is the non-compact orbifold $ \mathbb{R}^{1, 21} \otimes \mathbb{R}^4/…
A brief introduction to the boundary state approach to Dirichlet branes is given. The example of the non-BPS D-string of Type IIA on K3 is analysed in some detail, and its dual heterotic state is identified.
