We study the fuzzy or noncommutative Dp-branes in terms of infinitely many unstable D0-branes, from which we can construct any Dp-branes. We show that the tachyon condensation of the unstable D0-branes induces the noncommutativity. In the…
Non-commutative gauge theory on fuzzy sphere was obtained by Alekseev et al. as describing the low energy dynamics of a spherical D2-brane in S^3 with the background b-field. We identify a subset of solutions of this theory which are…
We find a novel tachyon condensation which provides a D-brane system with spherical worldvolume in the flat spacetime. The tachyon profile is a deformation of a known D0-brane solution on non-BPS D3-branes in type IIA superstring theory,…
There is a difficulty in defining the positions of the D-branes when the scalar fields on them are non-abelian. We show that we can use tachyon condensation to determine the position or the shape of D0-branes uniquely as a commutative…
We study the dynamics of localized and fully backreacting anti-D3 branes at the tip of the Klebanov-Strassler geometry. We use a non-supersymmetric version of the Polchinski-Strassler analysis to compute the potential for anti-D3 branes to…
We study D-branes in SU(2) WZW model by means of the boundary state techniques. We realize the ``fuzzy sphere'' configuration of multiple D0-branes as the boundary state with the insertion of suitable Wilson line. By making use of the…
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…
D0-branes are unstable in the presence of an R-R field strength background. A fuzzy two-sphere is classically stable under such a background, this phenomenon being called the Myers effect. We analyze this effect from the viewpoint of…
Anti-M2 and anti-D3 branes placed in regions with charges dissolved in fluxes have a tachyon in their near-horizon region, which causes these branes to repel each other. If the branes are on the Coulomb branch this tachyon gives rise to a…
A system of k Neveu-Schwarz (NS) 5-branes of type II string theory with one transverse direction compactified on a circle admits various unstable D-brane systems, - some with geometric instability arising out of being placed at a point of…
We study Myers world-volume effective action of coincident D-branes. We investigate a system of N_0 D0-branes in the geometry of Dp-branes with p=2 or p=4. The choice of coordinates can make the action simplified and tractable. For p=4, we…
Branes in non-trivial backgrounds are expected to exhibit interesting dynamical properties. We use the boundary conformal field theory approach to study branes in a curved background with non-vanishing Neveu-Schwarz 3-form field strength.…
Gravitational tidal forces may induce polarization of D0 branes, in analogy to the same effects arising in the context of constant background gauge fields. Such phenomena can teach us about the correspondence between smooth curved spacetime…
We study tachyon condensation on noncommutative toric orbifolds with a $Z_2$ discrete group and explore the various kins of brane bound states arising in the case of irrational values of the B-field. We show that $Z_$ symmetry of the…
We discuss the tachyon condensation in a single unstable D-brane in the framework of boundary state formulation. The boundary state in the background of the tachyon condensation and the NS B-field is explicitly constructed. We show in both…
We construct unstable classical solutions of Yang-Mills theories and their dual unstable states of type IIB on AdS_5. An example is the unstable D0-brane of type IIB located at the center of AdS. This has a field theory dual which is a…
Rotational dynamics is known to polarize D0 branes into higher dimensional fuzzy D$p$-branes: the tension forces between D0 branes provide the centripetal acceleration, and a puffed up spinning configuration stabilizes. In this work, we…
This paper is devoted to the construction of unstable D-brane action in torsional Newton-Cartan background through T-duality along null direction. We determine corresponding equations of motion and analyze their solution that corresponds to…
In matrix models, higher dimensional D-branes are obtained by imposing a noncommutative relation to coordinates of lower dimensional D-branes. On the other hand, a dual description of this noncommutative space is provided by higher…
We study a brane-antibrane system and a non-BPS D-brane in SU(2) WZW model. We first discuss the tachyon condensation using the vertex operator formalism and find the generation of codimension two D-branes after the condensation. Our result…
