Considering the scattering of massless open strings attached to a D2-brane living in the $B$ field background, we show that corresponding scattering upto the order of $\a'^2$ is exactly given by the gauge theory on noncommutative background, which is characterized by the Moyal bracket.
We derive the noncommutative torus compactification of M(atrix) theory directly from the string theory by imposing mixed boundary conditions on the membranes. The relation of various dualities in string theory and M(atrix) theory compactification on the noncommutative torus are studied.
In this article we consider open strings with mixed boundary conditions (a combination of Neumann and Dirichlet conditions at each end). We discuss how their end points show a $D_p$-brane with NS-NS charge, i.e. a bound state of a D-brane with a fundamental strings. We show that these branes are BPS saturated. In the case of one-branes, we show that their mass densities are in agreement with IIb SUGRA which is Sl(2,Z) invariant. Using Chan-Paton factors, we extend our results to the case of bound states of $n$ D-strings and $m$ F-strings. These string theoretic results are also checked in the effective field theory limit.
In this article, applying different types of boundary conditions; Dirichlet, Neumann, or Mixed, on open strings we realize various new brane bound states in string theory. Calculating their interactions with other D-branes, we find their charge densities and their tension. A novel feature of $(p-2,p)$ brane bound state is its "non-commutative" nature which is manifestly seen both in the open strings mode expansions and in their scattering off a $D_p$-brane. Moreover we study three or more object bound states in string theory language. Finally we give a M-theoretic picture of these bound states.
In this paper, we consider two D-branes rotated with respect to each other, and argue that in this way one can find brane configurations preserving ${1 \f 16}$ of SUSY. Also we classify different brane configurations preserving ${1 \f 2}$, ${1 \f 4}$, ${3 \f 16}$,${1 \f 8}$, ${1 \f 16}$ of SUSY.
The scale in the D-brane theory is discussed from different points of view. It is shown that scattering of a $D_4$-brane by a $D_0$-brane gives the condition to penetrate beyond the string scale.
Using world-sheet parity we show that mixed D and N components of D-strings are dual to the anti-symmetric $B_{μν}$ field. The contribution of the latter is responsible for the reduction and even removal of all the interactions between two dissimilar D-branes.
