Open strings with topologically inspired boundary conditions
Riccardo Capovilla, Jemal Guven
We consider an open string described by an action of the Dirac-Nambu-Goto type with topological corrections which affect the boundary conditions but not the equations of motion. Th…

Deformations of extended objects with edges
Riccardo Capovilla, Jemal Guven
We present a manifestly gauge covariant description of fluctuations of a relativistic extended object described by the Dirac-Nambu-Goto action with Dirac-Nambu-Goto loaded edges ab…

Extended objects with edges
Riccardo Capovilla, Jemal Guven
We examine, from a geometrical point of view, the dynamics of a relativistic extended object with loaded edges. In the case of a Dirac-Nambu-Goto [DNG] object with DNG edges, the w…
