We review the holographic correspondence between field theories and string/M theory,
focusing on the relation between compactifications of string/M theory on Anti-de Sitter …

Using the correspondence between gauge theories and string theory in curved
backgrounds, we investigate aspects of the large-N limit of non-commutative gauge theories …

In these lectures we review the properties of a boosted and rotated boundary state and of a
boundary state with an abelian gauge field deriving from it the Dirac-Born-Infeld action and a …

We report a systematic study of the stringy interaction between two sets of Dp branes placed
parallel at a separation in the presence of two worldvolume fluxes for each set. We focus in …

In the previous paper [hep-th/9904112], we argued that there exist BPS bound states of Dp
branes carrying certain units of quantized constant electric field for every p (with 1⩽ p⩽ 8) …

We use the boundary state formalism to provide the full conformal description of (F, Dp)
bound states. These are BPS configurations that arise from a superposition of a fundamental …

We compute the closed-string cylinder amplitude between one Dp brane and the other Dp′
brane, placed parallel at a separation, with each carrying a general constant worldvolume …

Abstract We study Born-Infeld type effective action for unstable D3-brane system including a
tachyon and an abelian gauge field, and find the rolling tachyon with constant electric and …

We investigate new compactifications of OM theory giving rise to a (3+ 1)-dimensional open
string theory with non-commutative x 0-x 1 and x 2-x 3 coordinates. The theory can be …
