The domain-wall/QFT correspondence
H. J. Boonstra, K. Skenderis, P. K. Townsend
We extend the correspondence between adS-supergravities and superconformal field theories on the adS boundary to a correspondence between gauged supergravities (typically with non-…
Brane intersections, anti-de Sitter spacetimes and dual superconformal theories
Harm Jan Boonstra, Bas Peeters, Kostas Skenderis
We construct a class of intersecting brane solutions with horizon geometries of the form adS_k x S^l x S^m x E^n. We describe how all these solutions are connected through the addi…
Branes and anti-de Sitter spacetimes
Harm Jan Boonstra, Bas Peeters, Kostas Skenderis
We consider a series of duality transformations that leads to a constant shift in the harmonic functions appearing in the description of a configuration of branes. This way, for se…
Duality and asymptotic geometries
H. J. Boonstra, B. Peeters, K. Skenderis
We consider a series of duality transformations that leads to a constant shift in the harmonic functions appearing in the description of a configuration of branes. This way, for se…
S Duality and Dyonic p-Brane Solutions in Type II String Theory
E. Bergshoeff, H. J. Boonstra, T. Ortin
We show how a solitonic ``magnetically'' charged -brane solution of a given supergravity theory, with the magnetic charge carried by an antisymmetric tensor gauge field, can be…
Duality symmetry in four-dimensional string actions
H. J. Boonstra, M. de Roo
We reduce the dual version of , supergravity coupled to vector fields to four dimensions, and derive the transformations which leave the eq…
On realizing the bosonic string as a noncritical -string
E. Bergshoeff, H. J. Boonstra, M. de Roo
We discuss a realization of the bosonic string as a noncritical -string. The relevant noncritical -string is characterized by a Liouville sector which is restricted to a…
BRST cohomology of the critical string
H. J. Boonstra
We study the cohomology of the critical string using the BRST charge in a special basis in which it contains three separately nilpotent BRST charges. This allows us to…
On the BRST Operator of -Strings
E. Bergshoeff, H. J. Boonstra, M. de Roo +2
We discuss the conditions under which the BRST operator of a -string can be written as the sum of two operators that are separately nilpotent and anticommute with each other. We…
Realisations of Symmetry
E. Bergshoeff, H. J. Boonstra, M. de Roo
We perform a systematic investigation of free-scalar realisations of the Za\-mo\-lod\-chi\-kov algebra in which the operator product of two spin-three generators contains a n…
