We find supertubes with arbitrary (and not necessarily planar) cross section; the stability against the D2-brane tension is due to a compensation by the local momentum generated by Born-Infeld fields. Stability against long-range supergravity forces is also established. We find the corresponding solutions of the infinite-N M(atrix) model. The supersymmetric D2/anti-D2 system is a special case of the general supertube, and we show that there are no open-string tachyons in this system via a computation of the open-string one-loop vacuum energy.

    Using the Witten-Sakai-Sugimoto holographic model, the authors describe axionic cosmic string loops and domain walls as D6-brane embeddings, find a first-order transition between them, and show that large-baryon-charg...
