Brane/anti-brane Systems and U (n |m ) Supergroup
نویسنده
چکیده
We show that in the context of topological string theories N branes and M anti-branes give rise to Chern-Simons gauge theory with the gauge supergroup U (N |M). We also identify a deformation of the theory which corresponds to brane/anti-brane annihilation.

Delocalized Supergravity Solutions for Brane/Anti-brane Systems and their Bound States
We obtain various solutions for D = 4 dipoles and their bound states whose U(1) fields originate from various form fields in the effective string theories. We oxidize such dipole solutions to D = 10 to obtain delocalized supergravity solutions for the brane/anti-brane pairs and their bound states. We speculate on generalized harmonic superposition rules for supergravity solutions for (intersect...
متن کاملStability of D brane Anti D brane Systems in Confining Gauge Theories
We study the stability of a special form of D brane embedding which is regarded as a bound state of Dn and anti-Dn-brane embedded in a 10D supergravity background which is dual to a confining gauge theory. For D5 branes with U(1) flux, their bound state configuration can be regarded as the baryonium vertex. For D branes of n=6 and 8 without the U(1) flux, their bound states have been used to in...
متن کاملSpherically Symmetric Solutions in a New Braneworld Massive Gravity Theory
In this paper, a combination of the braneworld scenario and covariant de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) massive Gravity theory is proposed. In this setup, the five-dimensional bulk graviton is considered to be massive. The five dimensional nonlinear ghost-free massive gravity theory affects the 3-brane dynamics and the gravitational potential on the brane. Following the solutions with spherical s...
متن کاملRemarks on non-BPS D-branes
Following Sen’s discovery of various stable non-BPS D-branes, K-theory has been shown to be the appropriate mathematical framework for classifying conserved D-brane charges. The classification accounts for known D-branes and predicts some new ones including a D8-brane in type I superstring theory. After briefly reviewing these developments, we discuss certain issues pertaining to the D8brane, w...
متن کاملThe massive Elko spinor field in the de Sitter braneworld model
The Elko spinor field is a spin 1/2 fermionic quantum field with a mass dimension introduced as a candidate of dark matter. In this work, we study the localization of Elko fields on a de Sitter thick brane constructed by a canonical or phantom scalar field. By presenting the mass-independent potentials of Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes in the corresponding Schrödinger equations, it is shown that the E...
