Dyonic P-branes from Self-dual (p+1)-branes
The 'electromagnetic' Sl(2; Z) duality group in spacetime dimension D = 4k can be given a Kaluza-Klein interpretation in D = 4k + 2 as the modular group of a compactifying torus. We show how dyonic 2(k − 1)-branes in D = 4k can be interpreted as self-dual (2k − 1)-branes in D = 4k + 2 wound around the homology cycles of the torus. In particular, dyons of the D=4 N=4 heterotic string theory are ...
متن کاملQuantization of P-branes, D-p-branes and M-branes *
Killing spinors of space-time BPS configurations play an important role in quantization of theories with the fermionic worldvolume local symmetry. We show here how it works for the GS superstring, BST supermembrane and M-5-brane. We show that the non-linear generalization of the (2,0) d=6 tensor supermultiplet action is the M-5-brane action in a Killing gauge. For D-p-branes the novel feature o...
متن کاملFluxbranes from p-branes
It is shown how magnetic fluxbrane, Fp-brane, solutions are related to electric black p-branes by analytic continuation. Viewing the transverse space of branes as a warped cone, one finds that the cone base of the p-brane becomes the world-volume of the F(D-p-3)-brane and the world volume of the p-brane becomes the cone base of the F(D-p-3)-brane. An explicit example of the correspondence is gi...
متن کاملp–BRANES, D–BRANES AND M–BRANES
We consider solutions to the string effective action corresponding to p–Branes, D–Branes and M –Branes and discuss some of their properties.
متن کاملInteracting branes, dual branes, and dyonic branes: a unifying lagrangian approach in D dimensions
This paper presents a general covariant lagrangian framework for the dynamics of a system of closed n–branes and dual (D − n − 4)–branes in D dimensions, interacting with a dynamical (n + 1)–form gauge potential. The framework proves sufficiently general to include also a coupling of the branes to (the bosonic sector of) a dynamical supergravity theory. We provide a manifestly Lorentz–invariant...
