The clockwork supergravity

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We show that the minimal D = 5, N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 gauged supergravity set-up may encode naturally the recently proposed clockwork mechanism. The minimal embedding requires one vector multiplet in addition to the supergravity multiplet and the ...

Unwinding strings in semi-flatland

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
We study the dynamics of strings with non-zero winding number around T-duality defects. We deduce that the physics near the core of such non-geometric objects involves winding modes that are not captured by the supergravity approximation, and we argue ...

T-duality transformations for the NS5-brane along angular directions

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
In this note we study T-duality transformations for the NS5-brane and its orbifolds along angular directions. We identify a geometric charge for these configurations and show that it is interchanged with the H-flux under T-duality. We furthermore perform

On small tension p-branes

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2008
This paper deals with p-branes with small but non-zero tension. We prove the existence of canonical transformations, within a perturbation theory, that link specific geometries of p-branes to solvable theories, namely string-like and particle-like theories. The specific shapes correspond to stretched configurations.

Unstoppable brane-flux decay of D 6 ¯ $$ \overline{\mathrm{D}6} $$ branes

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
We investigate p D 6 ¯ $$ \overline{\mathrm{D}6} $$ branes inside a flux throat that carries K × M D6 charges with K the 3-form flux quantum and M the Romans mass.

Janus on the brane

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
We present a non-supersymmetric deformation of probe branes describing conformal defects of codimension two in AdS/CFT. The worldvolume of the probe branes is deformed from AdS p × S 1 embedded in an AdS p+2 × ℳ D − p − 2 background to an embedding of ...

Aspects of D-Branes as BPS monopoles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We investigate some of the properties of D-brane configurations which behave as BPS monopoles. The two D-brane configurations we will study are the enhançon and D-strings attached to D3-branes.We will start by investigating D3-branes wrapped on a K3 ...

Intersections involving monopoles and waves in eleven dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We consider intersections in eleven dimensions involving Kaluza–Klein monopoles and Brinkmann waves. Besides these purely gravitational configurations, we also construct solutions to the equations of motion that involve additional M2- and M5-branes ...
