Fermions, T-duality and effective actions for D-branes in bosonic backgrounds
Donald Marolf, Luca Martucci, Pedro J. Silva
We find the effective action for any D-brane in a general bosonic background of supergravity. The results are explicit in component fields up to second order in the fermions and ar…
On type II superstrings in bosonic backgrounds: the role of fermions and T-duality
Luca Martucci, Pedro J. Silva
We derive the actions for type II Green-Schwarz strings up to second order in the fermions, for general bosonic backgrounds. We base our work on the so-called normal coordinate exp…
Background-Independent Gravitational Waves
Juri Agresti, Roberto De Pietri, Luca Lusanna +1
A Hamiltonian linearization of the rest-frame instant form of tetrad gravity (gr-qc/0302084), where the Hamiltonian is the weak ADM energy , in a completely fixed (…
Hamiltonian linearization of the rest-frame instant form of tetrad gravity in a completely fixed 3-orthogonal gauge: a radiation gauge for background-independent gravitational waves in a post-Minkowskian Einstein spacetime
Juri Agresti, Roberto De Pietri, Luca Lusanna +1
In the framework of the rest-frame instant form of tetrad gravity, where the Hamiltonian is the weak ADM energy , we define a special completely fixed 3-orthogonal…
YM on the dielectric brane: a D0-brane tale
Luca Martucci, Pedro J. Silva
In this letter we present a derivation, from the D0-brane picture, of the background monopole field and in general of the full dynamics of the Yang-Mills theory on the dielectric D…
