Spacetime non-commutativity appears in string theory. In this paper, the non-commutativity in string theory is reviewed. At first we review that a Dp-brane is equivalent to a configuration of infinitely many D($p-2$)-branes. If we consider…
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 discuss the physics of a single Dp-brane in the presence of a background electromagnetic field B_{ij}. It has recently been shown \cite{SW} that, in a specific \alpha ' \to 0 limit, the physics of the brane is correctly described by…
The spectrum of open strings on various non-BPS D-brane configurations in type II string theory on a K3 orbifold is analysed. At a generic point in the corresponding moduli space the spectrum of open strings does not have any degeneracy…
We study a $D_p$-brane in a parallelizable NS-NS background. The article starts with a brief review of the non-associative deformation of $D$-brane worldvolume in presence of torsion \cite{cornalba}. We suggest an alternative form and…
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 consider a Dp brane within a D9 brane in the presence of a B-field whose polarization is {\em transverse} to the Dp brane. To be definite, we take a D3-D9 system. It is observed that the system has the same pattern of supersymmetry…
The geometry of D-branes can be probed by open string scattering. If the background carries a non-vanishing B-field, the world-volume becomes non-commutative. Here we explore the quantization of world-volume geometries in a curved…
The dynamics of a Dp brane can be described either by an open string ending on this brane or by an open D(p - 2) brane ending on the same Dp brane. The ends of the open string couple to a Dp brane worldvolume gauge field while the boundary…
We consider non-supersymmetric $p$-brane solutions of type II string theories characterized by three parameters. When the charge parameter vanishes and one of the other two takes a specific value, the corresponding chargeless solutions can…
We point out that when a D-brane is placed in an NS-NS B field background with non-vanishing field strength (H=dB) along the D-brane worldvolume, the coordinate of one end of the open string does not commute with that of the other in the…
We study a class of type I string models with supersymmetry broken on the world-volume of some D-branes and vanishing tree-level potential. Despite the non-supersymmetric spectrum, supersymmetry is non-linearly realized on these D-branes,…
An attempt is made to compare the asymptotic state density of twisted $p$-branes and the related state density of mass level $M$ of a $D$-dimensional neutral black hole. To this aim, the explicit form of the twisted $p$-brane total level…
Using the boundary state formalism we study rotating and moving D$p$-branes in the presence of the following background fields: Kalb-Ramond, $U(1)$ gauge potential and the tachyon field. The rotation and motion are in the brane volumes. The…
We consider system of Dp-branes in the presence of a nonzero B field with one leg along brane worldvolume and the other transverse to it. We study the corresponding supergravity solutions and show that the worldvolume theories decouple from…
We review the recent developments in our understanding of non-BPS states and branes in string theory. The topics include 1) construction of unstable non-BPS D-branes in type IIA and type IIB string theories, 2) construction of stable…
Multidimensional gravity interacting with intersecting electric and magnetic $p$-branes is considered for fields depending on a single variable. Some general features of the system behaviour are revealed without solving the field equations.…
We develop the moduli-space approximation for the low energy regime of BPS-branes with a bulk scalar field to obtain an effective four-dimensional action describing the system. An arbitrary BPS potential is used and account is taken of the…
We study the bound states of brane/antibrane systems by examining the motion of a probe antibrane moving in the background fields of N source branes. The classical system resembles the point-particle central force problem, and the orbits…
We show that Dirichlet p-brane can be expressed as a configuration of infinitely many Dirichlet (p-2)-branes in the bosonic string theory. Using this fact, we interpret the massless fields on the p-brane worldvolume as deformations of the…
