چکیده

We study some aspects of the Ka luża-Klein Melvin solution in M-theory. The associated magnetic field has a maximal critical value B = ±1/R where R is the radius of the compactification circle. It is argued that the Melvin background of type IIA with magnetic field B and of type 0A with magnetic field B = B−1/R are equivalent. Evidence for this conjecture is provided using a further circle compactification and a ‘9-11’ flip. We show that partition functions of nine-dimensional type IIA strings and of a (−1)σ1/2 type IIA orbifold both with NS-NS Melvin fluxtubes are related by such shift of the magnetic field. Then the instabilities of both IIA and 0A Melvin solutions are analyzed. For each theory there is an instanton associated to the decay of spacetime. In the IIA case the decay mode is associated to the nucleation of D6/D6̄-brane pairs, while in the 0A case spacetime decays through Witten’s bubble production.

Applications of He’s Variational Principle method and the Kudryashov method to nonlinear time-fractional differential equations

  In this paper, we establish exact solutions for the time-fractional Klein-Gordon equation, and the time-fractional Hirota-Satsuma coupled KdV system. The He’s semi-inverse and the Kudryashov methods are used to construct exact solutions of these equations. We apply He’s semi-inverse method to establish a variational theory for the time-fractional Klein-Gordon equation, and the time-fractiona...

SOLVING NONLINEAR KLEIN-GORDON EQUATION WITH A QUADRATIC NONLINEAR TERM USING HOMOTOPY ANALYSIS METHOD

In this paper, nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with quadratic term is solved by means of an analytic technique, namely the Homotopy analysis method (HAM).Comparisons are made between the Adomian decomposition method (ADM), the exact solution and homotopy analysis method. The results reveal that the proposed method is very effective and simple.

Fluxbrane in Melvin Background: Membrane Matrix Approach

We apply the regularized theory of light-cone gauge memberbranes to find the matrix model in the Kaluza-Klein Melvin background. In the case of arbitrary value of the twist parameter, which corresponding to any magnetic flux tube field, the Melvin matrix model becomes the BFSS model with two extra mass terms and another term. For the static system, we solve the equation of motion and find the s...
