Newton-Hooke Algebras, Non-relativistic Branes and Generalized pp-wave Metrics

Jan Brugues, Joaquim Gomis, Kiyoshi Kamimura

The Newton-Hooke algebras in d dimensions are constructed as contractions of dS(AdS) algebras. Non-relativistic brane actions are WZ terms of these Newton-Hooke algebras. The NH al…

Non-perturbative states in type II superstring theory from classical spinning membranes

Jan Brugues, Joan Rojo, Jorge G. Russo

We find a new family of exact solutions in membrane theory, representing toroidal membranes spinning in several planes. They have energy square proportional to the sum of the diffe…

Non-relativistic strings and branes as non-linear realizations of Galilei groups

Jan Brugues, Thomas Curtright, Joaquim Gomis +1

We construct actions for non-relativistic strings and membranes purely as Wess-Zumino terms of the underlying Galilei groups.

Commutative and noncommutative N=2 SYM in 2+1 from wrapped D6-branes

Jan Brugues, Joaquim Gomis, Toni Mateos +1

We give the supergravity duals of commutative and noncommutative non-abelian gauge theories with N=2 in 2+1 dimensions. The moduli space on the Coulomb branch of these theories is…

Supergravity Duals of Noncommutative Wrapped D6 Branes and Supersymmetry without Supersymmetry

Jan Brugues, Joaquim Gomis, Toni Mateos +1

We construct the supergravity solution in 11 dimensions describing D6-branes wrapped around a Kahler four-cycle with a B-field along the flat directions of the brane. The configura…
