In this paper we consider brane solutions of the form $G/H$ in M(atrix) theory, showing the emergence of world volume coordinates for the cases where $G=SU(N)$. We examine a particular solution with a world volume geometry of the form ${\bf…

A large class of supersymmetric extended objects is considered from the viewpoint of embeddings of super worldsurfaces into target superspaces. It is shown that a simple geometrical condition leads to the equations of motion for the brane…

By exploiting the BV quantization of topological bosonic open membrane, we argue that flat 3-form C-field leads to deformations of the algebras of multi-vectors on the Dirichlet-brane world-volume as 2-algebras. This would shed some new…

We construct a fairy general family of supersymmetric solutions in time- and space-dependent backgrounds in general supergravity theories. One class of the solutions are intersecting brane solutions with factorized form of time- and…

We show the existence of classical solutions of a system of D3-branes oriented at an arbitrary angle with respect to each other, in a six dimensional pp-wave background obtained from AdS_3\times S^3\times R^4, with NS-NS and R-R 3-form…

We construct a general family of supersymmetric solutions in time- and space-dependent wave backgrounds in general supergravity theories describing single and intersecting p-branes embedded into time-dependent dilaton-gravity plane waves of…

We review the construction and phenomenology of intersecting brane worlds. The breaking of chiral and supersymmetry together with a reduction of gauge symmetry by introducing D-branes at generic angles into type I or type II string…

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,…

A geometrical form of the supersymmetry conditions for D-branes on arbitrary type II supersymmetric backgrounds is derived, as well as the associated BPS bounds. The treatment is general and allows to consider, for instance, non-static…

We discuss how to incorporate non-supersymmetric branes in compactifications of type II string theories. We particularly focus on flux compactifications on $SU(3)\times SU(3)$ structure manifolds to four dimensions, so that a linear…

We study the interaction between a $p$-brane and $BF$ system constituted by a $(p+1)$-form and a $n-(p+2)$-form B with a metric independent action on a manifold $M^n$. We identify the allowed $(p+1)$-world manifolds sweeped by the $p$-brane…

We propose a simple form for the superalgebra of M2 and M5-brane probes in arbitrary supersymmetric backgrounds of 11D supergravity, extending previous results in the literature. In particular, we identify the topological charges in the…

We here generalize our previous construction [hep-th/0409019] of non-supersymmetric $p$-branes delocalized in one transverse spatial direction to two transverse spatial directions in supergravities in arbitrary dimensions ($d$). These…

Black hole generalized p-brane solutions for a wide class of intersection rules are presented. The solutions are defined on a manifold that contains a product of n - 1 Ricci-flat internal spaces. They are defined up to moduli functions H_s…

I review my work together with Piljin Yi on the spectrum of BPS-saturated states in N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories. In an M-theory description, such states are realized as certain two-brane configurations. We first show how the…

We study the warped geometry of heterotic M-Theory in five dimensions where five-branes are included in the bulk. Five-branes wrapping holomorphic curves lead to BPS configurations where the junction conditions are automatically satisfied.…

In string theory, stacks of D1-branes can expand into intersecting D3-branes. These configurations are called (generalized) BIons. We show how the analogous constructions in M-theory, where M2-branes blow up into calibrated intersections of…

A family of Majumdar-Papapetrou type solutions in sigma-model of p-brane origin is obtained for all direct sums of finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras. Several examples of p-brane dyonic configurations in D=10 (IIA) and D=11…

We revisit non-marginal half-BPS solutions of M-theory in the framework of the possible existence of an underlying E11 Kac-Moody symmetry. In this context, non-marginal BPS solutions of M-theory can be described as exact solutions of the…

This paper deals with p-branes with small but non-zero tension. We prove the existence of canonical transformations, within a perturbation theory, that link specific geometries of p-branes to solvable theories, namely string-like and…
