Brane-intersection Dynamics from Branes in Brane Backgrounds

چکیده
We derive the dynamics of M-brane intersections from the worldvolume action of one brane in the background supergravity solution of another one. In this way we obtain an effective action for the self-dual string boundary of an M2-brane in an M5-brane, and show that the dynamics of the 3-brane intersection of two M5-branes is described by a Dirac-Born-Infeld action.

From D-D Pairs to Branes in Motion
We investigate various supersymmetric brane intersections. Motivated by the recent results on supertubes, we investigate general constraints in which parallel brane-antibrane configurations are supersymmetric. Dual descriptions of these configurations involve systems of intersecting branes in relative motion. In particular, we find new supersymmetric configurations which are not related to a st...
متن کاملVarious Supersymmetric Brane Configurations from Superalgebras in Many Types of M-Brane Backgrounds
We derive superalgebras in many types of supersymmetric M-brane backgrounds. The backgrounds examined here include the cases of the M-wave and the M-Kaluza-Klein monopole. On the basis of the obtained algebras, we deduce all the supersymmetric nonorthogonal intersections of the M-Kaluza-Klein monopole and the M-5-brane at angles, most of which were previously unexamined. In addition, we present...

متن کاملSupersymmetric Intersecting Branes in Time-dependent Backgrounds
We construct a family of supersymmetric solutions in time-dependent backgrounds in supergravity theories. One class of the solutions are intersecting brane solutions and another class are brane solutions in pp-wave backgrounds, and their intersection rules are also given. The relation to existing literature is also discussed. An example of D1-D5 with linear null dilaton together with its possib...
متن کاملBrane Dynamics in Cft Backgrounds *
In this note we discuss bound states of unor meta-stable brane configurations in various non-trivial (curved) backgrounds. We begin by reviewing some known results concerning brane dynamics on group manifolds. These are then employed to study condensation in cosets of the WZWmodel. While the basic ideas are more general, our presentation focuses on parafermion theories and, closely related, N =...
