Gluing conditions are proposed to characterize the D-branes in gauged WZW models. From them the boundary conditions for the group-valued and the subgroup-valued fields are determined. We construct a gauged WZW action for open strings that…
We show that one can construct D-branes in parafermionic and WZW theories (and their orbifolds) which have very natural geometrical interpretations, and yet are not automatically included in the standard Cardy construction of D-branes in…
In this paper we re-examine the geometric interpretation of gluing conditions in WZW models and the possible D-brane configurations that they give rise to. We show how the boundary conditions are encoded in the gluing conditions imposed on…
We discuss D-branes on a line of conformal field theories connected by an exact marginal deformation. The line contains an SU(2) WZW model and two mutually T-dual SU(2)/U(1) cosets times a free boson. We find the D-branes preserving a U(1)…
The geometric description of D-branes in WZW models is pushed forward. Our starting point is a gluing condition\, $J_{+}=FJ_-$ that matches the model's chiral currents at the worldsheet boundary through a linear map $F$ acting on the WZW…
We show that the geometric interpretation of D-branes in WZW models as twisted conjugacy classes persists in the $\lambda$--deformed theory. We obtain such configurations by demanding that a monodromy matrix constructed from the Lax…
We construct the boundary WZNW functional for symmetry breaking D-branes on a group manifold which are localized along a product of a number of twisted conjugacy classes and which preserve an action of an arbitrary continuous subgroup.…
In this talk we discuss symmetry preserving D-branes on a line of a marginally deformed SU(2) WZW model. A semiclassical and a quantum theoretical approach are presented.
It is stated in the literature that D-branes in the WZW-model associated with the gluing condition J = - \bar{J} along the boundary correspond to branes filling out the whole group volume. We show instead that the end-points of open strings…
We discuss possible D-brane configurations on SU(2) group manifolds in the sigma model approach. When we turn the boundary conditions of the spacetime fields into the boundary gluing conditions of chiral currents, we find that for all…
We construct the boundary state for the D-brane in the SU(2) group manifold directly in terms of the group variables. We propose a matching condition for the left- and the right-moving sectors including the zero modes that describes a…
We investigate D-branes in orientifolds of WZW models. A connection between the conformal field theory approach to orientifolds and the target space motivated analysis is established. In particular, we associate previously constructed…
This is a brief review of some recent results on the geometric approach to symmetric D-branes in group manifolds, both twisted and untwisted. We describe the geometry of the gluing conditions and the quantisation condition in the boundary…
It is shown how two-dimensional states corresponding to D-branes arise in orbifolds of topologically massive gauge and gravity theories. Brane vertex operators naturally appear in induced worldsheet actions when the three-dimensional gauge…
We construct D-brane states on an asymmetric orbifold of type IIA on a four-torus, which is modded out by T-duality. We find explicit boundary states charged under the twisted sector gauge fields. Unlike other cases, the boundary states…
The analysis of D-branes in coset models G/H provides a natural extension of recent studies on branes in WZW-theory and it has various interesting applications to physically relevant models. In this work we develop a reduction procedure…
We employ generalized complex geometry to investigate supersymmetric embeddings of D-brane probes in a large class of SU(2) structure manifolds. This class includes the gravity dual of mass deformation and marginal beta deformation of N=4…
We derive the most general local boundary conditions necessary for T-duality to be compatible with superconformal invariance of the two-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric nonlinear sigma model with boundaries. To this end, we construct a…
Following on from arXiv:1805.03657, we consider open strings in the non-Abelian T-dual of the $SU(2)_k$ WZW model, with respect to the vector $SU(2)$ isometry. Since in this case the dual theory has an exact CFT description, we look at the…
We study D1-branes on the fourfold $\C^4/(\Z_2\times\Z_2\times\Z_2)$, in the presence of discrete torsion. Discrete torsion is incorporated in the gauge theory of the D1-branes by considering a projective representation of the finite group…
