We construct $(D-3)$-brane and instanton solutions using $N \le 10-D$ one-form field strengths in $D$ dimensions, and show that the equations of motion can be cast into the form of the $SL(N+1,R)$ Toda equations. For generic values of the…
A classical model of gravity theory with several dilatonic scalar fields and differential forms admitting an interpretation in terms of intersecting p-branes is studied in (pseudo)-Riemannian space-time $M =R_+\times S^{d_0}\times R_t\times…
The low energy effective actions which arise from string theory or M-theory are considered in the cosmological context, where the graviton, dilaton and antisymmetric tensor field strengths depend only on time. We show that previous results…
We study the relationship between static p-brane solitons and cosmological solutions of string theory or M-theory. We discuss two different ways in which extremal p-branes can be generalised to non-extremal ones, and show how wide classes…
We reconsider dyonic p-brane solutions derivable from Liouville and Toda integrable systems and investigate their geometric structure. It is shown that the non-BPS non-black dyonic branes are not regular on the horizon.
A general framework for studying a large class of cosmological solutions of the low-energy limit of type II string theory and of M-theory, with non-trivial Ramond form fields excited, is presented. The framework is applicable to spacetimes…
We give a review of some recent work on the construction and classification of $p$-brane solutions in maximal supergravity theories in all dimensions $4\le D\le 11$. These solutions include isotropic elementary and solitonic $p$-branes,…
We study the Liouville theory on a Riemann surface of genus g by means of their associated Drinfeld--Sokolov linear systems. We discuss the cohomological properties of the monodromies of these systems. We identify the space of solutions of…
General properties of a class of two-dimensional dilaton gravity (DG) theories with multi-exponential potentials are studied and a subclass of these theories, in which the equations of motion reduce to Toda and Liouville equations, is…
In this paper we analyze the Cardy-Lewellen equation in general diagonal model. We show that in these models it takes simple form due to some general properties of conformal field theories, like pentagon equations and OPE associativity.…
Solutions in multidimensional gravity with m p-branes related to Toda-like systems (of general type) are obtained. These solutions are defined on a product of n+1 Ricci-flat spaces M_0 x M_1 x...x M_n and are governed by one harmonic…
We consider the ${\rm SU}(n+1)$ Toda system on a simply connected domain $\Omega$ in ${\Bbb C}$, the $n=1$ case of which coincides with the Liouville equation $\Delta u+8e^u=0$. A classical result by Liouville says that a solution of this…
Composite S-brane solutions in multidimensional gravity with scalar fields and fields of forms related to Toda-like systems are presented. These solutions are defined on a product manifold R_{*} x M_1 x ... x M_n, where R_{*} is a time…
It is shown that the general solution near a spacelike singularity of the Einstein-dilaton-p-form field equations relevant to superstring theories and M-theory exhibits an oscillatory behaviour of the Belinskii-Khalatnikov-Lifshitz type.…
We consider a D-dimensional cosmological model describing an evolution of (n+1) Einstein factor spaces in the theory with several dilatonic scalar fields and generalized electro-magnetic forms, admitting an interpretation in terms of…
We show that the central charge of the Liouville and ADE Toda theories can be reproduced by equivariantly integrating the anomaly eight-form of the corresponding six-dimensional N=(0,2) theories, which describe the low-energy dynamics of…
We solve a super Toda system on a closed Riemann surface of genus~$\gamma>1$ and with some particular spin structures. This generalizes the min-max methods and results for super Liouville equations and gives new existence results for super…
A new parameterisation of the solutions of Toda field theory is introduced. In this parameterisation, the solutions of the field equations are real, well-defined functions on space-time, which is taken to be two-dimensional Minkowski space…
We obtain a large class of cosmological solutions in the toroidally-compactified low energy limits of string theories in $D$ dimensions. We consider solutions where a $p$-dimensional subset of the spatial coordinates, parameterising a flat…
In this paper, we give a construction of $p$-brane solitons in all maximal supergravity theories in $4\le D \le 11$ dimensions that are obtainable from $D=11$ supergravity by dimensional reduction. We first obtain the full bosonic…
