{We carry out a fluctuation analysis of the non-abelian Born-Infeld action up to order F^6 in the presence of a background intersecting D-branes system. We compare the mass spectrum which is obtained in our analysis to the spectrum derived…
We discuss the general structure of the non-abelian Born-Infeld action, together with all of the alpha-prime derivative corrections, in flat D-dimensional space-time. More specifically, we show how the connection between open strings…
We discuss some aspects of the generalization of the Born-Infeld action to non-abelian gauge groups and show how the discrepancy between Tseytlin's symmetrized trace proposal and string theory can be corrected at order $F^6$. We also…
Motivated by the results of Hashimoto and Taylor, we perform a detailed study of the mass spectrum of the non-abelian Born-Infeld theory, defined by the symmetrized trace prescription, on tori with constant magnetic fields turned on.…
We show that the part of the tree-level open string effective action for the non-abelian vector field which depends on the field strength but not on its covariant derivatives, is given by the symmetrised trace of the direct non-abelian…
We review a method to find the non-abelian open superstring effective action, thereby settling the issue of the ordering ambiguities. We start from solutions to Yang-Mills which, in D-brane context, define certain BPS configurations.…
In this paper we explicitly show the equivalence between the non-Abelian Born-Infeld action, which was proposed by Tseytlin as an effective action on several D-branes, and its noncommutative counterpart for slowly varying fields. This…
The Dirac action describes the physics of the Nambu-Goldstone scalars found on branes. The Born-Infeld action defines a non-linear theory of electrodynamics. The combined Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) action describes the leading interactions…
We attempt to settle the issue as to what is the correct non-abelian generalisation of the Born-Infeld action, via a consideration of the two-loop $\beta$--function for the non-abelian background gauge field in open string theory. An…
We investigate magnetic monopole solutions of the non-abelian DBI action describing 2 coincident non-BPS D9-branes in flat space. Just as in the case of kink and vortex solitonic tachyon solutions of the full DBI non-BPS actions, as…
We determine higher-derivative terms in the open superstring effective action with U(N) gauge group up to and including order alpha'^4 as can be extracted from 4 boson, 2 boson - 2 fermion and 4 fermion string scattering amplitudes. This…
We consider the spectra of excitations around diagonal and intersecting D-brane configurations on tori. These configurations are described by constant curvature connections in a dual gauge theory description. The low-energy string…
Recently a proposal for the non-abelian effective D-brane action was given through fourth order in alpha'. As the resulting expressions turned out to be quite involved, some checks of this result are called for. In the present paper we…
The Tachyon-Dirac-Born-Infeld (TDBI) action captures some aspects of the dynamics of non-BPS D-branes in type II string theory. We show that it can also be used to study the classical interactions of BPS branes and antibranes. Our analysis…
We derive the noncommutative Dirac-Born-Infeld action for the $D$-brane, which governs dynamics of $D$-brane with a NS-NS $B$-field in the low energy regime. Depending on some details of the path integral prescriptions, both ordinary…
We review and elaborate on some aspects of Born-Infeld action and its supersymmetric generalizations in connection with string theory. Contents: BI action from string theory; some properties of bosonic D=4 BI action; N=1 and N=2…
In this paper we study the action for N D0-branes in a curved background. In particular, we focus on the meaning of space-time diffeomorphism invariance. For a single D-brane, diffeomorphism invariance acts in a naive way on the…
We explicitly evaluate the disk S-matrix elements of one closed string and an arbitrary number of open string states in the presence of a large background B-flux. From this calculation, we show that in the world-volume action of D-branes in…
Connection between the partition function for the 2D sigma model with boundary pertubations and the low energy effective action for massless fields from in the open string theory is discussed. In the non-abelian case with a stack of $N$…
A rule of thumb derivation of the Dirac-Born-Infeld action for D-branes is studied \`a la Fradkin and Tseytlin, by simply integrating out of the superstring coordinates in a narrow strip attached to the D-branes. In case of superstrings,…
