Higher dimensional conformal QFT possesses an interesting braided structure which, different from the d=1+1 models, is restricted to the timelike region and therefore easily escapes euclidean action methods. It lies behind the spectrum of…
The proposed so far brane-world cosmological scenarios are concerned with (D-1)-dimensional embeddings into the D-dimensional spacetime, besides, it is supposed D=5 as a rule. However, it would be much more realistic to consider our…
The interplay among the spectrum, geometry and magnetic field in tubular neighbourhoods of curves in Euclidean spaces is investigated in the limit when the cross section shrinks to a point. Proving a norm resolvent convergence, we derive…
I discuss my recent attempt in search of a new framework for quantum field theory of D branes. After explaining some motivations in the background of this project, I present, as a first step towards our goal, a second-quantized…
Boundary conformal field theory is the suitable framework for a microscopic treatment of D-branes in arbitrary CFT backgrounds. In this work, we develop boundary deformation theory in order to study the changes of boundary conditions…
We consider one particle confined to a deformed one-dimensional wire. The quantum mechanical equivalent of the classical problem is not uniquely defined. We describe several possible hamiltonians and corresponding solutions for a finite…
We analyze constrained quantum systems where the dynamics do not preserve the constraints. This is done in particular for the restriction of a quantum particle in Euclidean n-space to a curved submanifold, and we propose a method of…
The low-energy background field solutions corresponding to D-brane bound states which possess a difference in dimension of two are presented. These solutions are constructed using the T-duality map between the type IIA and IIB superstring…
We derive a lower bound to the spectral threshold of the Dirichlet Laplacian in tubular neighbourhoods of constant radius about complete surfaces. This lower bound is given by the lowest eigenvalue of a one-dimensional operator depending on…
It is well known that boundary conditions on quantum fields produce divergences in the renormalized energy-momentum tensor near the boundaries. Although irrelevant for the computation of Casimir forces between different bodies, the…
The emphasis in the developmet of theories with more than three spatial dimensions has recently shifted towards ``brane world'' picture, which assumes that ordinary matter (with possible exceptions of gravitons and other, hypothetic,…
The lowest order quantum corrections to the effective action arising from quantized massive fermion fields in the Randall-Sundrum background spacetime are computed. The boundary conditions and their relation with gauge invariance are…
We perform the consistent quantization of open string D-brane in non-constant NS-NS closed string B field background by directly imposing the worldsheet conformal symmetry. In addition to the previous noncommutative D-brane coordinates…
A selfconsistent definition of quantum free particle on a generic curved manifold emerges naturally by restricting the dynamics to submanifolds of co-dimension one. PACS 0365 0240
The low energy effective field theory of type II D4-branes coupled to bulk supergravity fields is used to investigate {\it quantum} effects for D4-branes in the D0 supergravity background. Classically, the D4-branes are unaffected by this…
Warped supergravities with lower-dimensional branes provide consistent field-theoretic framework for discussion of important aspects of modern string theory physics. In particular, it is possible to study reliably supersymmetry breakdown…
Intuition dictates that a very long, very thin cavity (e.g., a fiber optic cable) could perhaps be modeled as an approximately one dimensional system. In this paper we rigorously explore the validity of such intuition from the perspective…
The quantum state space $\cal S$ over a $d$-dimensional Hilbert space is represented as a convex subset of a $D-1$-dimensional sphere $S_{D-1}\subset {\bf{R}}^D$, where $D=d^2-1.$ Quantum tranformations (CP-maps) are then associated with…
The aim of this contribution is to provide a short introduction to recently investigated models in which our accessible universe is a four-dimensional submanifold, or brane, embedded in a higher dimensional spacetime and ordinary matter is…
We propose that general D-dimensional quantum field theories are dual to (D+1)-dimensional local quantum theories which in general include objects with spin two or higher. Using a general prescription, we construct a (D+1)-dimensional…
