Comments on Half S-Branes
نویسنده
چکیده
Following hep-th/0305177, we write the boundary state of half S-brane in bosonic string theory as a grand canonical partition function of a unitary matrix model. From this representation, it follows that the annulus amplitude can be written as a grand canonical partition function of a unitary two-matrix model. We also show that the contribution of the exponentially growing couplings to the timelike oscillators can be resummed in a certain annulus amplitude.

Comments on D-branes in AdS3
We study D-branes that preserve a diagonal SL(2) affine Lie algebra in string theory on AdS3. We find three classes of solutions, corresponding to the following representations of SL(2): (1) degenerate, finite dimensional representations with half integer spin, (2) principal continuous series, (3) principal discrete series. We solve the bootstrap equations for the vacuum wave functions and disc...
متن کاملNotes on D - branes of Type IIB String on AdS 5 × S 5
We promote a study of D-branes of type IIB string on the AdS5 × S 5 background. The possible D-branes preserving half of supersymmetries were classified up to and including the fourth order of fermionic variable θ in our previous work [hep-th/0310228]. In this paper we show that our classification is still valid even at the full order of θ . This proof supplements our previous results and compl...
متن کاملHolographic Wilson Loops
We show that all half-BPS Wilson loop operators in N = 4 SYM – which are labeled by Young tableaus – have a gravitational dual description in terms of D5-branes or alternatively in terms of D3-branes in AdS5×S. We prove that the insertion of a half-BPS Wilson loop operator in the N = 4 SYM path integral is achieved by integrating out the degrees of freedom on a configuration of bulk D5-branes o...
متن کاملD-branes of Covariant AdS Superstrings
We consider D-branes of open superstrings in the AdS5 × S background. The possible configurations of D-branes preserving half of supersymmetries are classified by analyzing the κ-invariance of an open superstring in a covariant manner. We also revisit the classification of D-branes in the pp-wave background. It is shown that Penrose limits of the possible D-branes in the AdS5 × S give all of th...
متن کامل– an Overview –
We briefly review a covariant analysis of D-branes of type IIB superstring on the AdS5×S 5 background from the κ-invariance of the Green-Schwarz string action. The possible configurations of D-branes preserving half of supersymmetries are classified in both cases of AdS5×S 5 and the pp-wave background.
