Chiral magnets from string theory
Chiral magnets with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction have received quite an intensive focus in condensed matter physics because of the presence of a chiral soliton lattice (CSL), an array of magnetic domain walls and anti-domain walls, and ...

BPS D-branes from an Unstable D-brane [PDF]
We search for exact tachyon kink solutions of DBI type effective action describing an unstable D-brane with worldvolume gauge field turned in both the flat and a curved background. There are various kinds of solutions in the presence of electromagnetic fields in the flat space, such as periodic arrays, topological tachyon kinks, half kinks, and bounces.

1/2-BPS D-branes from covariant open superstring in AdS4 × CP3 background
We consider the open superstring action in the AdS4 × CP 3 background and investigate the suitable boundary conditions for the open superstring describing the 1/2-BPS D-branes by imposing the κ-symmetry of the action.

Notes on worldvolume supersymmetries for D-branes on AdS5×S5 background
We revisit the 1/2-BPS D-branes on the AdS5×S5 background. Based only on the classification of 1/2-BPS D-branes obtained by the covariant open string description, we consider various purely static configurations of D-branes without any worldvolume flux ...

Lattice black branes at large D
We explore the phase space of non-uniform black branes compactified on oblique lattices with a large number of dimensions. We find the phase diagrams for different periodicities and angles, and determine the thermodynamically preferred phases for each ...

Non-BPS fractional branes with Bose-Fermi cancellation in asymmetric orbifolds
We study non-BPS D-branes in the type II string vacua with chiral space-time SUSY constructed based on the asymmetric orbifolds of K3≅T4/ℤ2 $$ \mathrm{K}3\cong {T}^4/{\mathrm{\mathbb{Z}}}_2 $$ as a succeeding work of [21].

Phase transitions in GLSMs and defects
In this paper, we construct defects (domain walls) that connect different phases of two-dimensional gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs), as well as defects that embed those phases into the GLSMs.

We study correlation functions of D-branes and a supergravity mode in AdS, which are dual to structure constants of two sub-determinant operators with large charge and a BPS single-trace operator. Our approach is inspired by the large charge expansion

Unitarity, D-brane dynamics and D-brane categories [PDF]
This is a short nontechnical note summarizing the motivation and results of my recent work on D-brane categories. I also give a brief outline of how this framework can be applied to study the dynamics of topological D-branes and why this has a bearing on the homological mirror symmetry conjecture. This note can be read without any knowledge of category

We study several different kinds of bound states built from D-branes and orientifolds. These states are to atoms what branonium - the bound state of a brane and its anti-brane - is to positronium, inasmuch as they typically involve a light brane bound to a much heavier object with conserved charges which forbid the system's decay.
