Non-BPS D-brane Solutions in Six Dimensional Orbifolds
نویسنده
چکیده
Starting with the non-BPS D0-brane solution of IIB/(−1)LI4 constructed recently by Eyras and Panda we construct via T-duality the non-BPS D2-brane and D1-brane solutions of IIB/(−1)LI4 and IIA/(−1)LI4 predicted by Sen. The D2-brane couples magnetically to the vector field of the NS5B-brane living in the twisted sector of the Type IIB orbifold, whereas the D1-brane couples (electrically and magnetically) to the self-dual 2-form potential of the NS5A-brane that is present in the twisted sector of the Type IIA orbifold construction. Finally we discuss the eleven dimensional interpretation of these branes as originating from a non-BPS M1-brane solution of M-theory orientifolded by ΩρI5. PACS: 11.25.-w; 11.27.+d

Non-BPS States and Branes in String Theory
We review the recent developments in our understanding of non-BPS states and branes in string theory. The topics include 1) construction of unstable non-BPS D-branes in type IIA and type IIB string theories, 2) construction of stable non-BPS D-branes on various orbifolds and orientifolds of type II string theories, 3) description of BPS and non-BPS D-branes as tachyonic soliton solutions on bra...
متن کاملBPS branes in discrete torsion orbifolds
We investigate D-branes in a Z3 × Z3 orbifold with discrete torsion. For this class of orbifolds the only known objects which couple to twisted RR potentials have been non-BPS branes. By using more general gluing conditions we construct here a D-brane which is BPS and couples to RR potentials in the twisted and in the untwisted sectors. ∗ [email protected]
متن کاملFundamental strings and NS5-branes from unstable D-branes in supergravity
By using the non-supersymmetric p-brane solutions delocalized in arbitrary number of transverse directions in type II supergravities, we show how they can be regarded as interpolating solutions between unstable Dp-branes (a non-BPS D-brane or a pair of coincident D-brane-antiD-brane) and fundamental strings and also between unstable Dp-branes and NS5-branes. We also show that some of these solu...
متن کاملBPS Bound States of D6-branes and Lower Dimensional D-branes
We construct 1/8, 1/4, and 1/2 BPS solutions spanned by diagonal elements of U(N) constant fluxes in the 6+1 dimensional U(N) super Yang-Mills theory on T 6 with topological stability. These solutions represent BPS bound states of D0, D2, D4, and D6 branes. The consistency with the D-brane charge conservation implies that unstable D0-D2-D6-brane systems in a B field decay to the BPS solutions, ...
متن کاملSix-Dimensional String Theories
We consider N = 1, D = 4 superconformal U(N) Yang-Mills theories dual to AdS5 × S/Zp × Zq orbifolds. We construct the dilatation operator of this superconformal gauge theory at one-loop planar level. We demonstrate that a specific sector of this dilatation operator can be thought of as the transfer matrix for a two-dimensional statistical mechanical system, related to an integrable SU(3) antife...
