On the effective action of stable non-BPS branes
Rodolfo Russo, Claudio A. Scrucca
We study the world-volume effective action of stable non-BPS branes present in Type II theories compactified on K3. In particular, by exploiting the conformal description of these…
Anomaly inflow and RR anomalous couplings
Claudio A. Scrucca, Marco Serone
We review the anomaly inflow mechanism on D-branes and O-planes. In particular, we compute the one-loop world-volume anomalies and derive the RR anomalous couplings required for th…
Anomaly cancellation in K3 orientifolds
Claudio A. Scrucca, Marco Serone
We study in detail the pattern of anomaly cancellation in D=6 Type IIB Z_N orientifolds, occurring through a generalized Green-Schwarz mechanism involving several RR antisymmetric…
Anomalies and inflow on D-branes and O-planes
Claudio A. Scrucca, Marco Serone
We derive the general form of the anomaly for chiral spinors and self-dual antisymmetric tensors living on D-brane and O-plane interesections, using both path-integral and index th…
