Open strings in the plane wave background II: Superalgebras and Spectra
Kostas Skenderis, Marika Taylor
In hep-th/0211011 we started a systematic investigation of open strings in the plane wave background. In this paper we continue the analysis by discussing the superalgebras of cons…

Open strings in the plane wave background I: Quantization and symmetries
Kostas Skenderis, Marika Taylor
We systematically investigate open strings in the plane wave background of type IIB string theory. We carefully analyze possible boundary conditions for open strings and find stati…

Branes in AdS and pp-wave spacetimes
Kostas Skenderis, Marika Taylor
We find half supersymmetric AdS-embeddings in AdS_5 x S^5 corresponding to all quarter BPS orthogonal intersections of D3-branes with Dp-branes. A particular case is the Karch-Rand…
