Brane Actions and String Dualities

Eduardo Eyras, Yolanda Lozano

An effective action for the M9-brane is proposed. We study its relation with other branes via dualities. Among these, we find actions for branes which are not suggested by the cent…

Anomalous couplings for D-branes and O-planes

Jose F. Morales, Claudio A. Scrucca, Marco Serone

We study anomalous Wess-Zumino couplings of D-branes and O-planes in a general background and derive them from a direct string computation by factorizing in the RR channel various…

Holography and the Weyl anomaly

Mans Henningson, Kostas Skenderis

We review our calculation of the Weyl anomaly for d-dimensional conformal field theories that have a description in terms of a (d + 1)-dimensional gravity theory.

The Kaluza-Klein Monopole in a Massive IIA Background

Eduardo Eyras, Yolanda Lozano

We construct the effective action of the KK-monopole in a massive Type IIA background. We follow two approaches. First we construct a massive M-theory KK-monopole from which the II…

Corrections to macroscopic supersymmetric black-hole entropy

Gabriel Lopes Cardoso, Bernard de Wit, Thomas Mohaupt

We determine the corrections to the entropy of extremal black holes arising from terms quadratic in the Riemann tensor in supergravity theories. We follow Wald's proposa…

Conformal description of horizon's states

Sergey N. Solodukhin

The existence of black hole horizon is considered as a boundary condition to be imposed on the fluctuating metrics. The coordinate invariant form of the condition for class of sphe…
