Exotic E11 branes as composite gravitational solutions
نویسنده
چکیده
A two-parameter group element is presented that interpolates between M-brane solutions. The group element is used to interpret a number of exotic branes related to the generators of the adjoint representation of E11 as non-marginal half-BPS bound states of M-branes. It is conjectured that the adjoint representation of E11 contains only generators related to bound states of fundamental M-branes which, in the limit, may be understood as membrane molecules. ∗email: [email protected] ar X iv :0 90 8. 04 85 v1 [ he pth ] 4 A ug 2 00 9

Composite p-branes on Product of Einstein Spaces
A multidimensional gravitational model with several scalar fields, fields of forms and cosmological constant is considered. When scalar fields are constant and composite p-brane monopole-like ansatz for the fields of forms is adopted, a wide class of solutions on product of n + 1 Einstein spaces is obtained. These solutions are composite p-brane generalizations of the Freund-Rubin solution. Som...
متن کاملMultidimensional Σ-models with Composite Electric P-branes
We consider a gravitational model on a manifold M = M0 × M1 × . . . ×Mn with oriented compact connected Einstein internal spaces M1, . . . ,Mn. The matter part of the action contains several scalar fields and antisymmetric forms. When all internal spaces are Ricci-flat, we may use a midisuperspace representation in σmodel form to obtain exact composite electric p-brane solutions, which depend o...
متن کاملBranes as solutions of gauge theories in gravitational field
The idea of the Gauss map is unified with the concept of branes as hypersurfaces embedded into DdimensionalMinkowski space. Themap introduces new generalized coordinates of branes alternative to their world vectors x and identified with the gauge and other massless fields. In these coordinates the Dirac p-branes realize extremals of the Euler–Lagrange equations of motion of a (p + 1)dimensional...
متن کاملExotic Branes and Nonperturbative Seven Branes
We construct the effective action of certain exotic branes in the Type II theories which are not predicted by their spacetime supersymmetry algebras. We analyze in detail the case of the NS-7B brane, S-dual to the D7-brane, and connected by T-duality to other exotic branes in Type IIA: the KK-6A brane and the KK-8A brane (obtained by reduction of the M-theory Kaluza-Klein monopole and M9-brane,...
متن کاملMirage resolution of cosmological singularities
We study time–dependent backgrounds in the low energy regimes of string theories. In particular the emphasis is on the general study of exotic phenomena such as positive acceleration and gravitational bounces. We generalize the usual Hawking–Penrose cosmological singularity theorems to higher–dimensional spacetimes and discuss their implications for time–dependent solutions in supergravity theo...
