Supersymmetric Giant Graviton Solutions in AdS_3
Gautam Mandal, Suvrat Raju, Mikael Smedbäck
We parameterize all classical probe brane configurations that preserve 4 supersymmetries in (a) the extremal D1-D5 geometry, (b) the extremal D1-D5-P geometry, (c) the smooth D1-D5…
From Gravitons to Giants
Avinash Dhar, Gautam Mandal, Mikael Smedbäck
We discuss exact quantization of gravitational fluctuations in the half-BPS sector around AdSS background, using the dual super Yang-Mills theory. For this purpose…
Bubbling Orientifolds
Sunil Mukhi, Mikael Smedbäck
We investigate a class of 1/2-BPS bubbling geometries associated to orientifolds of type IIB string theory and thereby to excited states of the SO(N)/Sp(N) N=4 supersymmetric Yang-…
Remarks on the black hole entropy and Hawking spectrum in Loop Quantum Gravity
A. Alekseev, A. P. Polychronakos, M. Smedback
In this note we reply to the criticism by Corichi concerning our proposal for an equidistant area spectrum in loop quantum gravity. We further comment on the emission properties of…
On Effective Actions for the Bosonic Tachyon
M. Smedbäck
We extend the analysis of hep-th/0304045 to the bosonic case and find the one-derivative effective action valid in the vicinity of rolling tachyons with an energy not larger than t…
