We study D-branes of N=2 supersymmetric sigma models. Supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models with 2-dimensional target space have D0,D1,D2-branes, which are realized as A-,B-type supersymmetric boundary conditions on the worldsheet. When we…

We study D0-branes in type IIA on $T^2$ with a background B-field turned on. We calculate explicitly how the background B-field modifies the D0-brane action. The effect of the B-field is to replace ordinary multiplication with a…

We calculate the metric on the D-brane vacuum moduli space for backgrounds of the form C^3/Gamma for cyclic groups Gamma. In the simplest procedure --- starting with a flat ``seed'' metric on the covering space --- we find that the…

We consider unstable D0-branes of two dimensional string theory, described by the boundary state of Zamolodchikov and Zamolodchikov [hep-th/0101152] multiplied by the Neumann boundary state for the time coordinate $t$. In the dual…

We study the low energy dynamics of a single Dp-brane carrying sufcient large number of D0-brane charges in type IIA theory. We assume the D-brane topology to be $R \times \mathcal{M}_{2n} $ , where $\mathcal{M}_{2n}$ is a closed manifold…

For background geometries whose metric contain a scale $\gamma$ we reformulate the Born-Infeld D-brane action in terms of $\epsilon \equiv \gamma /(2\pi \alpha ')$. This may be taken as a starting point for various perturbative treatments…

The metric of the gravity dual of a field theory should contain precisely the same information as the field theory. We discuss this connection in the N=4 theory where a scalar vev may be introducedat the level of 5d supergravity and the…

In this note we obtain the discrete spectrum of the rotating ellipsoidal membrane, the solution to classical equations of motion in the matrix mechanics of N D0-branes. This solution has the interpretation of a closed D2-brane with the…

In my talk I shall consider the mechanism of self-expansion of a system of N D0-branes into high-dimensional non-commutative world-volume investigated by Harmark and Savvidy. Here D2-brane is formed due to the internal angular momentum of…

D0-branes on a D2-brane with a constant background B-field are unstable due to the presence of a tachyonic mode and expected to dissolve into the D2-brane to formulate a constant D0-charge density. In this paper we study such a dissolution…

We describe how mirror symmetry of three-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories can be used to determine the theory on the world-volume of a D2-brane probe of manifolds with G_2 holonomy. This is a much shortened companion paper to…

We present two derivations of the multiple D2 action from the multiple M2-brane model proposed by Bagger-Lambert and Gustavsson. The first one is to start from Lie 3-algebra associated with given (arbitrary) Lie algebra. The Lie 3-algebra…

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…

Brane brick models are Type IIA brane configurations that encode the $2d$ $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ gauge theories on the worldvolume of D1-branes probing toric Calabi-Yau 4-folds. We use mirror symmetry to improve our understanding of this…

We investigate the dynamics of dilatonic D-dimensional 0-branes in the near-horizon regime. The theory is given in a twofold form: two-dimensional dilaton gravity and nonlinear sigma model. Using asymptotic symmetries, duality relations,…

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 analyse the velocity-dependent potentials seen by D0 and D4-brane probes moving in Type I' background for head-on scattering off the fixed planes. We find that at short distances (compared to string length) the D0-brane probe has a…

We consider a system of D0-branes in toroidally compactified space with interactions described by a Born-Infeld-type generalisation of the leading v^2 + v^4/r^{D-4} terms (D is the number of non-compact directions in M-theory, including the…

We investigate further our recent proposal for the form of the matrix theory action in weak background fields. Using Seiberg's scaling argument we relate the matrix theory action to a low-energy system of many D0-branes in an arbitrary but…

We study the generalized conformal quantum mechanics of the probe D0-brane in the near horizon background of the bound state of source D0-branes. We elaborate on the relationship of such model to the M theory in the light cone frame.
