Inter-brane Interactions in Compact Spaces and Brane Inflation
Sarah Shandera, Benjamin Shlaer, Horace Stoica +1
It was pointed out that brane-anti-brane inflation without warped geometry is not viable due to compactification effects (in the simplified scenario where the inflaton is decoupled…
Adding a Brane to the Brane-Anti-Brane Action in BSFT
Nicholas T. Jones, Louis Leblond, S. -H. Henry Tye
We attempt to generalize the effective action for the D-brane-anti-D-brane system obtained from boundary superstring field theory (BSFT) by adding an extra D-brane to it to obtain…
Spectral flow and boundary string field theory for angled D-branes
Nicholas T. Jones, S. -H. Henry Tye
D-branes intersecting at an arbitrary fixed angle generically constitute a configuration unstable toward recombination. The reconnection of the branes nucleates at the intersection…
The Production, Spectrum and Evolution of Cosmic Strings in Brane Inflation
Nicholas T. Jones, Horace Stoica, S. -H. Henry Tye
Brane inflation in superstring theory predicts that cosmic strings (but not domain walls or monopoles) are produced towards the end of the inflationary epoch. Here, we discuss the…
