D-Brane Stability and Monodromy
Paul S. Aspinwall, Michael R. Douglas
We review the idea of Pi-stability for B-type D-branes on a Calabi-Yau manifold. It is shown that the octahedral axiom from the theory of derived categories is an essential ingredi…

Derived Categories and Zero-Brane Stability
Paul S. Aspinwall, Albion Lawrence
We define a particular class of topological field theories associated to open strings and prove the resulting D-branes and open strings form the bounded derived category of coheren…

Some Navigation Rules for D-Brane Monodromy
Paul S. Aspinwall
We explore some aspects of monodromies of D-branes in the Kahler moduli space of Calabi-Yau compactifications. Here a D-brane is viewed as an object of the derived category of cohe…
