Super - D 0 - branes at the endpoints of fundamental superstring : an example of interacting brane system
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a supersymmetric action functional for the coupled system of an open fundamental superstring and super–D0–branes attached to (identified with) the string endpoints. As a preliminary step the geometrical actions for a free superD0-brane and a free type IIA superstring have been built. The pure bosonic limits of the action for the coupled system and of the equations of motion are discussed in some detail.

Current Density Distributions and a Supersymmetric Action for Interacting Brane Systems
We propose a method to obtain a manifestly supersymmetric action functional for interacting brane systems. It is based on the induced map of the worldvolume of low-dimensional branes into the worldvolume of the space-time filling brane ((D-1)-brane), which may be either dynamical or auxiliary, and implies an identification of Grassmann coordinate fields of lower dimensional branes with an image...
متن کاملSuperembedding approach to superstring in AdS 5 × S 5 superspace
We review the spinor moving frame formulations and generalized action principle for super-p-branes, describe in detail the superembedding approach to superstring in general type IIB supergravity background and present the complete superembedding description of type IIB superstring in the AdS5 × S 5 superspace. This contribution is devoted to the memory of Wolfgang Kummer who untimely left us in...
متن کاملD-branes from M-branes
The 2-brane and 4-brane solutions of ten dimensional IIA supergravity have a dual interpretation as Dirichlet-branes, or 'D-branes', of type IIA superstring theory and as 'M-branes' of an S 1-compactified eleven dimensional supermembrane theory, or M-theory. This eleven-dimensional connection is used to determine the ten-dimensional Lorentz covariant worldvolume action for the Dirichlet super 2...
متن کاملSuper Lie n-algebra extensions, higher WZW models and super p-branes with tensor multiplet fields
We formalize higher dimensional and higher gauge WZW-type sigma-model local prequantum field theory, and discuss its rationalized/perturbative description in (super-)Lie n-algebra homotopy theory (the true home of the “FDA”-language used in the supergravity literature). We show generally how the intersection laws for such higher WZW-type σ-model branes (open brane ending on background brane) ar...
متن کاملNoncommutative Geometry and D - Branes
We apply noncommutative geometry to a system of N parallel D-branes, which is interpreted as a quantum space. The Dirac operator defining the quantum differential calculus is identified to be the zero-momentum mode of the supercharge for strings connecting D-branes. As a result of the calculus, Connes' Yang-Mills action functional on the quantum space reproduces the dimensionally reduced U(N) s...
