S-Duality and Brane Descent Relations
Laurent Houart, Yolanda Lozano
We present a description of the type IIB NS-NS p-branes in terms of topological solitons in systems of spacetime-filling brane-antibrane pairs. S-duality implies that these spaceti…
Type II Branes from Brane-Antibrane in M-theory
Laurent Houart, Yolanda Lozano
We discuss in a systematic way all the possible realisations of branes of M and type II theories as topological solitons of a brane-antibrane system. The classification of all the…
Exotic Branes and Nonperturbative Seven Branes
Eduardo Eyras, Yolanda Lozano
We construct the effective action of certain exotic branes in the Type II theories which are not predicted by their spacetime supersymmetry algebras. We analyze in detail the case…
Kaluza-Klein Monopole and 5-brane Effective Actions
Eduardo Eyras, Yolanda Lozano
We review the construction of the Kaluza-Klein monopole of the Type IIA theory in the most general case of a massive background, as well as its relation via T-duality with the Type…
