On Type IIA String Theory on the PP-wave Background
arXiv:hep-th/0207037 · doi:10.1016/S0550-3213(03)00298-0
Abstract
We study type IIA superstring theory on a PP-wave background with 24 supercharges. This model can exactly be solved and then quantized. The open string in this PP-wave background is also studied. We observe that the theory has supersymmetric Dp-branes for p=2,4,6,8.
