abstract

I calculate the semiclassical phase shift ($\delta$), as function of impact parameter ($b$) and velocity ($v$), when one D-brane moves past another. From its low-velocity expansion I show that, for torroidal compactifications, the moduli space of two identical D-branes stays flat to all orders in $\alpha^\prime$. For K3 compactifications, the calculation of the D-brane moduli-space metric can be mapped to a dual gauge-coupling renormalization problem. In the ultrarelativistic regime, the absorptive part of the phase shift grows as if the D-branes were black disks of area $\sim \alpha^\prime ln{1\over 1-v^2}$. The scattering of large fundamental strings shares all the above qualitative features. A side remark concerns the intriguing duality between limiting electric fields and the speed of light.

    hep-th 2025-10 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In the large-distance effective theory of BFSS, graviton-like vertex operators are shown to have correlators that factorize in the soft limit at leading and subleading order, matching the predicted BFSS soft theorem.

  3. Dressed D-strings with Instability and Transverse Rotation: The Open String Pair Production

    hep-th 2025-05 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    Open string pair production between two rotating D-strings occurs only for rational frequency ratios and, after the tachyon is quenched, toroidal compactification enhances the rate.

  4. On the Underlying Nonrelativistic Nature of Relativistic Holography

    Standard AdS/CFT duality is reinterpreted as D-brane/black-brane duality in nonrelativistic D3-brane theory, with AdS5×S5 as a relativistic bubble in flat 3-Newton-Cartan geometry.
