Faddeev-Niemi Conjecture and Effective Action of QCD

We calculate a one loop effective action of SU(2) QCD in the presence of the monopole background, and find a possible connection between the resulting QCD effective action and a generalized Skyrme-Faddeev action of the non-linear sigma model. The result is obtained using the gauge-independent decomposotion of the gauge potential into the topological degrees which describes the non-Abelian monopoles and the local dynamical degrees of the potential, and integrating out all the dynamical degrees of QCD.

Role of the brane curvature scalar in the brane world cosmology

We include the brane curvature scalar to study its cosmological implication in the brane world cosmology. This term is usually introduced to obtain the well-defined stress-energy tensor on the boundary of anti de Sitter-Schwarzschild space. Here we treat this as the perturbed term for cosmological purpose. We find corrections to the well-known equation of the brane cosmology. It contains new interesting terms which may play the important role in the brane cosmology.

Schwarzschild black hole in the dilatonic domain wall

In the dilatonic domain wall model, we study the Schwarzschild black hole as a solution to the Kaluza-Klein (KK) zero mode effective action which is equivalent to the Brans-Dicke (BD) model with a potential. This can describe the large Randall-Sundrum (RS) black hole whose horizon is to be the intersection of the black cigar with the brane. The black cigar located far from the AdS$_5$-horizon is known to be stable, but any explicit calculation for stability of the RS black hole at $z=0$ is not yet performed. Here its stability is investigated against the $z$-independent perturbations composed of odd, even parities of graviton ($h_{μν}$) and BD scalar($h_{44} = 2ϕ$). It seems that the RS black hole is classically unstable because it has a potential instability at wavelength with $λ> 1/(2k)$. However, this is not allowed inside an AdS$_5$-box of the size with $1/(2k)$. Thus the RS black hole becomes stable. The RS black hole can be considered as a stable remnant at $z=0 $ of the black cigar.

Randall-Sundrum Gauge in the Brane World

We discuss the Randall-Sundrum (RS) choice for $h_{MN}$ in the brane-world. We begin with the de Donder gauge (transverse-tracefree) including scalar($h_{55}$), vector($h_{5μ}$) and tensor($h_{μν}$) in five dimensions for comparison. One finds that $h_{55}=0$ and $h_{5μ}=0$. This leads to the RS choice. It appears that the RS choice is so restrictive for the five massless states, whereas it is unique for describing the massive states. Furthermore, one can establish the stability of the RS solution with the RS choice only.

S-wave absorption of scalars by noncommutative D3-branes

On the supergravity side, we study the propagation of the RR scalar and the dilaton in the D3-branes with NS $B$-field. To obtain the noncommutative effect, we consider the case of $B\to \infty(θ\toπ/2)$. We approximate this as the smeared D1-brane background with $F_5=H=0$. In this background, the RR scalar induces an instability of the near-horizon geometry. However, it turns out that the RR scalar is nonpropagating, while the dilaton is a physically propagating mode. We calculate the s-wave absorption cross section of the dilaton. One finds $σ_0^ϕ|_{B\to\infty} \sim (\tilde ω\tilde R_{π\over 2})^{8.9} / ω^5$ in the leading-order while $σ_0^ϕ|_{B=0} \sim (\tilde ωR_0)^{8}/ω^5$ in the D3-branes without $B$-field. This means that although the dilaton belongs to a minimally coupled scalar in the absence of $B$-field, it becomes a sort of fixed scalar in the limit of $B \to \infty$.

Greybody factor for D3-branes in B field

We calculate the effect of noncommutative spacetime on the greybody factor on the supergravity side. For this purpose we introduce a system of D3-branes with a constant NS $B$-field along their world volume directions ($x_2, x_3$). Considering the propagation of minimally coupled scalar with non-zero momentum along($x_2, x_3$), we derive an exact form of the greybody factor in $B$ field. It turns out that $σ^{B\ne0}_l > σ^{B=0}_l$. This means that the presence of $B$-field (the noncommutativity) suppresses the potential barrier surrounding the black hole. As a result, it comes out the increase of greybody factor.

Noncommutative spacetime and the fractional quantum Hall effect

We propose the two formalisms for obtaining the noncommutative spacetime in a magnetic field. One is the first-order formalism and the other is the second-order formalism. Although the noncommutative spacetime is realized manifestly in the first-order formalism, the second-order formalism would be more useful for calculating the physical quantities in the noncommutative geometry than the first-order one. Several interesting points for string theory and fractional quantum Hall effect are discussed. In particular, we point out that the noncommutative geometry is closely related to the fractional quantum Hall effect(FQHE).

Scattering from an AdS_3 bubble and an exact AdS_3

We investigate the close relationship between the potential and absorption cross section for test fields in an AdS$_3$ bubble(a 5D black hole) and an exact AdS$_3$. There are two solutions in type IIB string theory: an AdS$_3$ bubble corresponds to the dilatonic solution, while an exact AdS$_3$ is the non-dilatonic solution. In order to obtain the cross section for an AdS$_3$ bubble, we introduce the \{out\}-state scattering picture with the AdS$_3$-AFS matching procedure. For an exact AdS$_3$, one considers the \{in\}-state scattering picture with the AdS$_3$-AdS$_3$ matching. Here the non-normalizable modes are crucially taken into account for the matching procedure. It turns out that the cross sections for the test fields in an AdS$_3$ bubble take the same forms as those in an exact AdS$_3$. This suggests that in the dilute gas and the low energy limits, the S-matrix for an AdS$_3$ bubble can be derived from an exact AdS$_3$ space.

Dilaton test of connection between AdS_3 X S^3 and 5D black hole

A 5D black hole(M$_5$) is investigated in the type IIB superstring theory compactified on S$^1 \times $T$^4$. This corresponds to AdS$_3 \times $S$^3 \times $T$^4$ in the near horizon with asymptotically flat space. Here the harmonic gauge is introduced to decouple the mixing between the dilaton and others. On the other hand we obtain the BTZ balck hole(AdS$_3\times$S$^3\times$T$^4$) as the non-dilatonic solution. We calculate the greybody factor of the dilaton as a test scalar both for a 5D black hole(M$_5 \times $S$^1 \times $T$^4$) and the BTZ black hole(AdS$_3 \times $S$^3 \times $T$^4$). The result of the BTZ black hole agrees with the greybody factor of the dilaton in the dilute gas approximation of a 5D black hole.

Noncommutative Geometry and Anyonic Field Theory in the Magnetic Field

We consider an easy way to get the noncommutative spacetime in Minkowski space. This corresponds to introducing a magnetic field ${\rm\bf B} = B \hat {\rm\bf k}$ in the plane. We construct a green's function in coordinate space which includes a Moyal phase factor. The projection to the lowest Landau level(LLL) is necessary for a simple calculation. Using this green's function and a second quantized formalism, we study the thermodynamic property of the anyons on the noncommutative geometry. It turns out that the Moyal phase factors contribute to the thermodynamic potential $Ω$ as opposed to the free-particle nature.

Gauge bosons and the AdS_3/LCFT_2 correspondence

We study the relationship between the gauge boson coupled to spin 2 operator and the singleton in three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space(AdS$_3$). The singleton can be expressed in terms of a pair of dipole ghost fields $A$ and $B$ which couple to $D$ and $C$ operators on the boundary of AdS$_3$. These operators form the logarithmic conformal field theory(LCFT$_2$). Using the correlation function for logarithmic pair, we calculate the greybody factor for the singleton. In the low temperature limit of $ω\gg T_{\pm}$, this is compared with the result of the bulk AdS$_3$ calculation of the gauge boson. We find that the gauge boson cannot be realized as a model of the AdS$_3$/LCFT$_2$ correspondence.

Tachyon and fixed scalars of D5$_\pm$-D1$_\pm$ black hole in type 0B string theory

In the type 0B string theory, we discuss the role of tachyon($T$) and fixed scalars($ν,λ$). The issue is to explain the difference between tachyon and fixed scalars in the D$5_{\pm}$-D$1_{\pm}$ black hole background. For this purpose, we perform the semiclassical calculation. Here one finds a mixing between ($ν, λ, T$) and the other fields. Using the decoupling procedure, one finds the linearized equation for the tachyon. From the potential analysis, it turns out that $ν$ plays a role of test field well, while the tachyon induces an instability of Minkowski space vacuum. But the roles of $ν$ and $T$ are the same in the near-horizon geometry. Finally we discuss the stability problem.

New gauge bosons and logarithmic corrections in an exact AdS$_3$

We calculate the absorption cross section by studying the spin--dependent wave equation in three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space(AdS$_3$). Here the AdS/CFT correspondence is used. It turns out that the new gauge bosons coupled to (2,0) and (0,2) operators on the boundary at infinity receive logarithmic corrections. This shows that the gauge bosons may play the role of singletons in AdS$_5$. On the other hand, test fields including the intermediate scalars($η, ξ$) and fixed scalar($λ$) do not receive any logarithmic correction in the first-order approximation.

6D black string as a model of the AdS/CFT correspondence

We discuss the entropy for the extremal BTZ black hole and the extremal EBTZ black hole. The EBTZ black hole means the BTZ black hole embedded in a five-dimensional(5D) black hole. The six-dimensional(6D) black string with traveling waves is introduced as a concrete model for realizing the AdS/CFT correspondence. The traveling waves carry the momentum distribution $p(u)$ which plays an important role in counting the entropy and establishing the correspondence. It turns out that the EBTZ black hole is consistent with the AdS/CFT correspondence.

The role of fixed scalars in scattering off a 5D black hole

We discuss the role of fixed scalars($ν,λ$) in scattering off a five-dimensional balck hole. The issue is to explain the disagreement of the greybody factor for $λ$ between the semiclassical and effective string calculations. In the effective string approach, this is related to the operators with dimension (3,1) and (1,3). On the semiclassical calculation, this originates from a complicated mixing between $λ$ and other fields. Hence it may depend on the decoupling procedure. It is shown that $λ$ depends on the gauge choices such as the harmonic, dilaton gauges, and the Krasnitz-Klebanov setting for $h_{μν}$. It turns out that $ν$ plays a role of test field well, while the role of $λ$ is obscure.

Dynamical Behavior of the BTZ Black Hole

We study the dynamical behavior of the BTZ (Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli) black hole with the low-energy string effective action. The perturbation analysis around the BTZ black hole reveals a mixing between the dilaton and other fields. Introducing the new gauge (dilaton gauge), we disentangle this mixing completely and obtain one decoupled dilaton equation. We obtain the decay rate $Γ$ of BTZ black hole.

Greybody factor for the BTZ black hole and a 5D black hole

We study the 5D black holes in the type IIB superstring theory compactified on $S^1 \times T^4$. Far from horizon, we have flat space-time. Near horizon, we have $AdS_3(BTZ black hole) \times S^3 \times T^4$. We calculate the greybody factor of a minimally coupled scalar by replacing the original geometry($M_5 \times S^1 \times T^4$) by $AdS_3 \times S^3 \times T^4$. In the low-energy scattering, it turns out that the result agrees with the greybody factor of the 5D black hole (or D1 + D5 branes)in the dilute gas approximation. This confirms that the $AdS$-theory($AdS_3 \times S^3 \times T^4$) contains the essential information about the bulk 5D black holes.
