abstract

We extend the usual world-volume action for a Dp-brane to the case of N coincident Dp-branes where the world-volume theory involves a U(N) gauge theory. The guiding principle in our construction is that the action should be consistent with the familiar rules of T-duality. The resulting action involves a variety of potential terms, i.e., nonderivative interactions, for the nonabelian scalar fields. This action also shows that Dp-branes naturally couple to RR potentials of all form degrees, including both larger and smaller than p+1. We consider the dynamics resulting from this action for Dp-branes moving in nontrivial background fields, and illustrate how the Dp-branes are ``polarized'' by external fields. In a simple example, we show that a system of D0-branes in an external RR four-form field expands into a noncommutative two-sphere, which is interpreted as the formation of a spherical D2-D0 bound state.

Krylov Complexity for Plane Wave Matrix Model

hep-th · 2026-05-25 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

In reduced BMN matrix models, Lanczos coefficients scale linearly with the mass parameter, producing quadratic corrections to early-time Krylov complexity growth at the same order for both state and operator versions.

A weakly non-abelian decay channel

Non-abelian branes open a new decay channel for AdS vacua that resist abelian domain-wall destabilizations.

Worldsheet Formalism for Decoupling Limits in String Theory

hep-th · 2023-11-17 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Develops worldsheet sigma model for fundamental strings in critical type IIA limit showing nodal singularities and derives T-duality web unifying decoupling limits including ambitwistor and Carrollian strings.

On the large N convergence of matrix models

hep-th · 2026-06-05 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

In the semiclassical approximation the eigenvalues of the SU(N) matrix model Hamiltonian converge one-to-one to the eigenvalues of the continuum supermembrane Hamiltonian with central charge as N approaches infinity.
