Manifest Supersymmetry in Non-Commutative Geometry

Chong-Sun Chu, Frederic Zamora

We consider the open superstring ending on a D-brane in the presence of a constant NS-NS B field, using the Green-Schwarz formalism. Quantizing in the light-cone gauge, we find tha…

On the effective action of stable non-BPS branes

Rodolfo Russo, Claudio A. Scrucca

We study the world-volume effective action of stable non-BPS branes present in Type II theories compactified on K3. In particular, by exploiting the conformal description of these…

Matrix Theory in a Constant C Field Background

Chong-Sun Chu, Pei-Ming Ho, Miao Li

D0-branes moving in a constant antisymmetric C field are found to be described by quantum mechanics of the supersymmetric matrix model with a similarity transformation. Sometimes t…

Scalar field theory limits of bosonic string amplitudes

Alberto Frizzo, Lorenzo Magnea, Rodolfo Russo

We describe in detail the techniques needed to compute scattering amplitudes for colored scalars from the infinite tension limit of bosonic string theory, up to two loops. These te…

M-Theory on S^1/Z_2 : New Facts from a Careful Analysis

Adel Bilal, Jean-Pierre Derendinger, Roger Sauser

We carefully re-examine the issues of solving the modified Bianchi identity, anomaly cancellations and flux quantization in the S^1/Z_2 orbifold of M-theory using the boundary-free…

Remarks on Defining the DLCQ of Quantum Field Theory as a Light-Like Limit

Adel Bilal

The issue of defining discrete light-cone quantization (DLCQ) in field theory as a light-like limit is investigated. This amounts to studying quantum field theory compactified on a…
