Exact operator bosonization of finite number of fermions in one space dimension

We derive an exact operator bosonization of a finite number of fermions in one space dimension. The fermions can be interacting or noninteracting and can have an arbitrary hamiltonian, as long as there is a countable basis of states in the Hilbert space. In the bosonized theory the finiteness of the number of fermions appears as an ultraviolet cut-off. We discuss implications of this for the bosonized theory. We also discuss applications of our bosonization to one-dimensional fermion systems dual to (sectors of) string theory such as LLM geometries and c=1 matrix model.

Tadpole Analysis of Orientifolded Plane-Waves

We study orientifolds of type IIB string theory in the plane-wave background supported by null RR 3-form flux F^{(3)}. We describe how to extract the RR tadpoles in the Green-Schwarz formalism in a general setting. Two models with orientifold groups {1, Ω} and {1,ΩI_4}, which are T-dual to each other, are considered. Consistency of these backgrounds requires 32 D9 branes for the first model and 32 D5 branes for the second one. We study the spectra and comment on the heterotic duals of our models.

Ramond-Ramond Couplings of Noncommutative Branes

We obtain the couplings of noncommutative branes of type II string theories to constant Ramond-Ramond backgrounds, for BPS as well as non-BPS branes, in the background-independent description. For the BPS branes, we also generalize these couplings to other descriptions, and thereby argue their equivalence to the known couplings in the commutative description. The first part is a review of earlier work while the second part contains some additional observations.
