Born-Infeld strings between D-branes

چکیده
We examine the solutions of world-volume action for a D3-brane being put near other D3-brane which is replaced by the background configuration of bulk space. It is shown that the BPS solutions are not affected by the D3brane background, and they are interpreted as dyonic strings connecting two branes. On the contrary, the non-BPS configurations are largely influenced by the background D-brane, and we find that the solutions with pure electric charge cannot connect two branes. These solutions are corresponding to the bound state of brane and anti-brane which has been found by Callan and Maldacena. [email protected] [email protected]

D-branes in Group Manifolds and Flux Stabilization
We consider D-branes in group manifolds, from the point of view of open strings and using the Born-Infeld action on the brane worldvolume. D-branes correspond to certain integral (twined) conjugacy classes. We explain the integrality condition on the conjugacy classes in both approaches. In the Born-Infeld description, the Dbrane worldvolume is stabilized against shrinking by a subtle interplay...
متن کاملBorn-Infeld Strings Tunneling to D-branes
Recent work on solutions to the Born-Infeld theory used to describe Dbranes suggests that fundamental strings can be viewed, in a certain limit, as D-branes whose worldvolumes have collapsed to string-like configurations. Here we address the possibility of undoing this collapse, by inducing the string to tunnel to an extended brane configuration. Using semiclassical methods we argue that, by pu...
متن کاملThe non - abelian Born - Infeld action at order F 6
To gain insight into the non-abelian Born-Infeld (NBI) action, we study coinciding D-branes wrapped on tori, and turn on magnetic fields on their worldvolume. We then compare predictions for the spectrum of open strings stretching between these D-branes, from perturbative string theory and from the effective NBI action. Under some plausible assumptions, we find corrections to the Str-prescripti...
متن کاملMany Faces of Born-Infeld Theory
Born-Infeld theory is the non-linear generalization of Maxwell electrodynamics. It naturally arises as the low-energy effective action of open strings, and it is also part of the world-volume effective action of D-branes. The N = 1 and N = 2 supersymmetric generalizations of the Born-Infeld action are closely related to partial spontaneous breaking of rigid extended supersymmetry. We review som...
متن کاملRemarks on Anti - De Sitter D - Branes
We present some preliminary investigations about the AdS 2 ×S 2 D3-branes in AdS 3 ×S 3. We analyse the quadratic fluctuations of Dirac–Born–Infeld action around a given semi-classical D-brane configuration and compare them with results obtained by using conformal-field-theory techniques. We finally study classical motions of open strings attached to those D-branes and analyse the rôle of the s...
