Winding String Condensation and Noncommutative Deformation of Spacelike Singularity
In a previous paper (hep-th/0509067) using matrix model, we showed that closed string tachyons can resolve spacelike singularity in one particular class of Misner space (with anti-periodic boundary conditions for fermions around the spatial circle). In this note, we show that for Misner space without closed string tachyons, there also exists a mechanism to resolve the singularity in the context...
متن کاملBrane Decay and Defect Formation
Topological defects are generically expected to form in models of brane inflation. Braneanti-brane annihilation provides a way to gracefully end inflation, and the dynamics of the tachyon field results in defect formation. The formation of defects has been studied mainly from the brane world-volume point of view, but the defects are themselves lower-dimensional branes, and as a result they coup...
متن کاملThe Singularity Problem in Brane Cosmology
We review results about the development and asymptotic nature of singularities in “brane–bulk” systems. These arise for warped metrics obeying the five-dimensional Einstein equations with fluid-like sources, and including a brane four-metric that is either Minkowski, de Sitter, or Anti-de Sitter. We characterize all singular Minkowski brane solutions, and look for regular solutions with nonzero...
متن کاملDynamical Decay of Brane–Antibrane and Dielectric Brane
Using D-brane effective field theories, we study dynamical decay of unstable brane systems : (i) a parallel brane-antibrane pair with separation l and (ii) a dielectric brane. In particular we give explicitly the decay width of these unstable systems, and describe how the decay proceeds after the tunnel effect. The decay (i) is analysed by the use of a tachyon effective action on the Dp-Dp. A p...
متن کاملBrane Decay and Death of Open Strings
We show how open strings cease to propagate when unstable D-branes decay. The information on the propagation is encoded in BSFT two-point functions for arbitrary profiles of open string excitations. We evaluate them in tachyon condensation backgrounds corresponding to (i) static spatial tachyon kink (= lower dimensional BPS D-brane) and (ii) homogeneous rolling tachyon. For (i) the propagation ...
