A couple of issues concerning the effective dynamics of D-branes in string theory are discussed. Primarily, I am concerned with linearization of the actions by introduction of non-propagating fields and a full super- and kappa-symmetric…
We introduce and review several indirect methods to calculate the effective action for a single D-brane or a set of coinciding D-branes.
We consider the actions for ten--dimensional $p$--branes and $D$--branes in an arbitrary curved background and discuss some of their properties. We comment on how the $SL(2,R)$ duality symmetry acts on the five--brane actions.
We study D-brane actions in non-relativistic string theory. We consider single D-brane and analyse its properties under T-duality. We also derive an action for N D8-branes and also for lower dimensional D-branes through T-duality…
Conformally gauge-fixed Polyakov D1 brane action is seen to be a constrained sys tem in the sense of Dirac when it is considered on the light-front in contrast t o the case when it is consdired in the instant-form. The model is quantized…
We discuss D-brane dynamics in orbifold compactifications of type II superstring theory. We compute the interaction potential between two D-branes moving with constant velocities and give a field theory interpretation of it in the large…
New measures for the quantization of systems with constraints are discussed and applied to several examples, in particular, examples of alternative but equivalent formulations of given first-class constraints, as well as a comparison of…
We obtain actions for N D-branes occupying points in a manifold with arbitrary Kahler metric. In one complex dimension, the action is uniquely determined (up to second order in commutators) by the requirement that it reproduce the masses of…
A general prescription for the treatment of constrained quantum motion is outlined. We consider in particular constraints defined by algebraic submanifolds of the quantum state space. The resulting formalism is applied to obtain solutions…
We examine the dynamics of a $Dp$-brane in the background of $k$ coincident, parallel $NS$5-branes which have had one of their common transverse directions compactified. We find that for small energy, bound orbits can exist at sufficiently…
We present new time dependent solutions for the dynamics of tubular D2-branes. We comment on the connection to cosmic string dynamics and explicitly give a few simple examples of oscillating and rotating brane configurations.
In this note we analyse the dynamical potential of a system of four $Dp$-branes at arbitrary angles. The equilibrium configurations for various values of the relative angles and distances among branes are discussed. The known configurations…
We present part of our investigations related to p-branes and Dp-branes dynamics, duality between string theories/M-theory and (conformal) field theories, as well as some semiclassical results for three-point correlation functions,…
This is a short nontechnical note summarizing the motivation and results of my recent work on D-brane categories. I also give a brief outline of how this framework can be applied to study the dynamics of topological D-branes and why this…
We calculate the potential between bound states of D-branes of different dimension in IIB matrix model upto one loop order and find nice agreement with the open string calculations in short and large distance limit. We also consider the…
We develop a formalism that allows us to write actions for multiple D-branes with manifest general covariance. While the matrix coordinates of the D-branes have a complicated transformation law under coordinate transformations, we find that…
This is an introduction to the physics of D-branes. Topics covered include Polchinski's original calculation, a critical assessment of some duality checks, D-brane scattering, and effective worldvolume actions.
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 construct an effective action describing brane-antibrane system containing N D-branes and N \bar{D}-branes. BPS equations for remaining D-branes after tachyon condensation are derived and their properties are investigated. The value of…
We study the relativistic dynamics of brane probes in singular warped spacetimes and establish limits for such analysis. The behavior of the semiclassical brane probe wave functions implies that unitarity boundary conditions can be imposed…
