The Noncommutative Bion Core
Neil R. Constable, Robert C. Myers, Oyvind Tafjord
We examine noncommutative solutions of the nonabelian theory on the world-volume of N coincident D-strings. These solutions can be interpreted in terms of noncommutative geometry a…
Exact Description of Black Holes on Branes
Roberto Emparan, Gary T. Horowitz, Robert C. Myers
To test recent ideas about lower dimensional gravity bound to a brane, we construct exact solutions describing black holes on two-branes in four dimensions. We find that 2+1 gravit…
A Naturally Small Cosmological Constant on the Brane?
C. P. Burgess, R. C. Myers, F. Quevedo
There appears to be no natural explanation for the cosmological constant's small size within the framework of local relativistic field theories. We argue that the recently-discusse…
Dielectric-Branes
R. C. Myers
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 ou…
Supergravity Inspired Warped Compactifications and Effective Cosmological Constants
C. Grojean, J. Cline, G. Servant
We propose a supergravity inspired derivation of a Randall-Sundrum's type action as an effective description of the dynamics of a brane coupled to the bulk through gravity only. Th…
Spin-Two Glueballs, Positive Energy Theorems and the AdS/CFT Correspondence
Neil R. Constable, Robert C. Myers
We determine the spectrum of graviton excitations in the background geometry of the AdS soliton in p+2 dimensions. Via the AdS/CFT correspondence this corresponds to determining th…
