Matrix Model, Noncommutative Gauge Theory and the Tachyon Potential
Gautam Mandal, Spenta R. Wadia
The D2brane-anti-D2brane system is described in the framework of BFSS Matrix model and noncommutative (NC) gauge theory. The physical spectrum of fields is found by appropriate gau…
A Note on D-Branes of Odd Codimensions from Noncommutative Tachyons
Gautam Mandal, Soo-Jong Rey
On a noncommutative space of rank-1, we construct a codimension-one soliton explicitly and, in the context of noncommutative bosonic open string field theory, identify it with the…
Nielsen-Olesen Vortices in Noncommutative Abelian Higgs Model
Dileep P. Jatkar, Gautam Mandal, Spenta R. Wadia
We construct Nielsen-Olesen vortex solution in the noncommutative abelian Higgs model. We derive the quantized topological flux of the vortex solution. We find that the flux is int…
Supergravity Description of Non-BPS Branes
Philippe Brax, Gautam Mandal, Yaron Oz
We construct supergravity solutions that correspond to N Dp-branes coinciding with \bar{N} \bar{Dp}-branes. We study the physical properties of the solutions and analyse the superg…
A review of the D1/D5 system and five dimensional black hole from supergravity and brane viewpoint
Gautam Mandal
We review some aspects of the D1/D5 system of type IIB string theory and the associated five dimensional black hole. We include a pedagogical discussion of the construction of rele…
