Nahm's equations, $N = 1^{*}$ domain walls, and D-strings in $A d S_{5} x S_{5}$

C. Bachas, J. Hoppe, B. Pioline

We consider the following two problems: classical domain walls in the $N = 1^{*}$ mass deformation of the maximally supersymmetric Yang Mills theory, and D-strings as external magnetic…

Flux Stabilization of D-branes

C. Bachas, M. Douglas, C. Schweigert

We explain how D-branes on group manifolds are stabilized against shrinking by quantized worldvolume U(1) fluxes. Starting from the Born-Infeld action in the case of the SU(2) grou…

Scales of String Theory

C. Bachas

I review the arguments in favor of/against the traditional hypothesis that the Planck, string and compactification scales are all within a couple of orders of magnitude from each o…
