Dynamics of Dirichlet-Neumann Open Strings on D-branes

Method for computing scattering amplitudes of open strings with Dirichlet boundary on one end and Neumann boundary condition on the other is described. Vertex operator for these states are constructed using twist fields which have been studied previously in the context of Ashkin-Teller model and strings on orbifolds. Using these vertex operators, we compute the threeand four-point scattering am...

On the Complex Dimensions of Nonlattice Fractal Strings in Connection with Dirichlet Polynomials

In this paper we give a new characterization of the closure of the set of the real parts of the zeros of a particular class of Dirichlet polynomials which is associated to the set of dimensions of fractality of certain fractal strings. We show, for some representative cases of nonlattice Dirichlet polynomials, that the real parts of their zeros are dense in their associated critical intervals, ...

Dirichlet Boundary Condition and Tachyon Condensation in Dilatonic Strings as QCD String

We consider bosonic noncritical strings as QCD string. We present an basic strategy to construct them, in the context of Liouville theory. We show that Dirichlet boundary condition fills important roles in generalized Liouville theory. Specifically, it is used to stabilize the classical configuration of strings, and also utilized to treat the tachyon condensation, in our model. We point out tha...

Dirichlet Duality and the Nonlinear Dirichlet Problem

We study the Dirichlet problem for fully nonlinear, degenerate elliptic equations of the form F.Hessu/ D 0 on a smoothly bounded domain  b Rn. In our approach the equation is replaced by a subset F Sym.Rn/ of the symmetric n nmatrices with @F fF D 0g. We establish the existence and uniqueness of continuous solutions under an explicit geometric “F -convexity” assumption on the boundary @. We a...
