Comments on I1-branes
نویسنده
چکیده
We explore the supergravity solution of D5-branes intersecting as an I1-brane. In a suitable near-horizon limit the geometry is in qualitative agreement with that found in the microscopic open-string analysis as well as the NS5-brane analysis of Itzhaki, Kutasov and Seiberg. In particular, the ISO(1, 1) Lorentz symmetry of the intersection domain is enhanced to ISO(1, 2). The discussion is generalised to the T-dual configuration of a D4-brane intersecting a D6-brane. In this case the ISO(1, 1) symmetry is not enhanced. This is true both in the supergravity approximation to the weakly coupled string theory and to the M-theory limit.

Comments on D-branes in flux backgrounds
We construct supergravity solutions for D-branes in nontrivial flux backgrounds. We revisit the issue of charge quantization in this framework, and show that in these backgrounds, charge need not be quantized. We also show in a particular example that the semiclassical description of branes produces integral charges. e-mail address: [email protected]
متن کاملComments on Brane Configurations with Semi-infinite D4 Branes
We consider four dimensional supersymmetric gauge field theories from brane configurations with the matter content given by semi-infinite D4 branes ending on both sides of NS branes. In M theory configuration, we discuss the splitting of the M5 brane into infinite cylindrical M5 branes (which decouple) and transversal M5 brane. The splitting condition appears naturally from the consistency of t...
متن کاملD5-brane in Anti-de Sitter Space and Penrose Limit
We consider the Penrose limit of the solution of D5-brane given in the Anti-de Sitter space and analyse the shape of the D5-brane in the pp-wave background. We find that the D5-brane leads to the branes and the throats connecting the branes. The branes spread on R with periodic values of the light-cone time x and the throats lie along x. We also give some comments on holography. May 2002 † seki...
متن کاملOrbifold boundary states from Cardy’s condition
Boundary states for D-branes at orbifold fixed points are constructed in close analogy with Cardy’s derivation of consistent boundary states in RCFT. Comments are made on the interpretation of the various coefficients in the explicit expressions, and the relation between fractional branes and wrapped branes is investigated for C/Γ orbifolds. The boundary states are generalised to theories with ...
متن کاملComments on D-branes in Kazama-Suzuki models and Landau-Ginzburg theories
We study D-branes in Kazama-Suzuki models by means of the boundary state description. We can identify the boundary states of Kazama-Suzuki models with the solitons in N = 2 Landau-Ginzburg theories. We also propose a geometrical interpretation of the boundary states in Kazama-Suzuki models.
