Ramond-Ramond Couplings on Brane-Antibrane Systems
Conall Kennedy, Andy Wilkins
Couplings between a closed string RR field and open strings are calculated in a system of coincident branes and antibranes of type II theory. The result can be written cleanly usin…
Geometrical Finiteness, Holography, and the BTZ Black Hole
Danny Birmingham, Conall Kennedy, Siddhartha Sen +1
We show how a theorem of Sullivan provides a precise mathematical statement of a 3d holographic principle, that is, the hyperbolic structure of a certain class of 3d manifolds is c…
Large N and the Dine-Rajaraman problem
Jim McCarthy, Leonard Susskind, Andy Wilkins
We compute the effective action for scattering of three well-separated extremal brane solutions, in 11d supergravity, with zero p_ transfer and small transverse velocities. Using a…
Massive Fields and the 2D String
Andy Wilkins
The first massive level of closed bosonic string theory is studied. Free-field equations are derived by imposing Weyl invariance on the world sheet. A two-parameter solution to the…
Induced Chern-Simons terms
Jim McCarthy, Andy Wilkins
We examine the claim that the effective action of four-dimensional SU(2)_L gauge theory at high and low temperature contains a three-dimensional Chern-Simons term with coefficient…
