Wavy Strings: Black or Bright?
Nemanja Kaloper, Robert C. Myers, Harold Roussel
Recent developments in string theory have brought forth a considerable interest in time-dependent hair on extended objects. This novel new hair is typically characterized by a wave…
More D-brane bound states
J. C. Breckenridge, G. Michaud, R. C. Myers
The low-energy background field solutions corresponding to D-brane bound states which possess a difference in dimension of two are presented. These solutions are constructed using…
Flow of low energy couplings in the Wilson renormalization group
Robert C. Myers, Vipul Periwal
A new form of the Wilson renormalization group equation is derived, in which the flow equations are, up to linear terms, proportional to a gradient flow. A set of coördinates is fo…
Aspects of Type IIB Theory on ALE Spaces
Clifford V. Johnson, Robert C. Myers
D-brane technology and strong/weak coupling duality supplement traditional orbifold techniques by making certain background geometries more accessible. In this spirit, we consider…
Stringy Toda Cosmologies
Nemanja Kaloper
We discuss a particular stringy modular cosmology with two axion fields in seven space-time dimensions, decomposable as a time and two flat three-spaces. The effective equations of…
More on Four-Dimensional Extremal Black Holes
N. Hambli
We consider an embedding of the extremal four-dimensional Reissner-Nordström black hole into type string theory. The equivalent type configuration, in the D-brane weak-…
