abstract

We explain how D-branes on group manifolds are stabilized against shrinking by quantized worldvolume U(1) fluxes. Starting from the Born-Infeld action in the case of the SU(2) group manifold we derive the masses, multiplicities and spectrum of small fluctuations of these branes, and show that they agree exactly with the predictions of conformal field theory, to all orders in the $\alpha^\prime$ expansion. We discuss the generalization to other groups and comment on an apparent paradox: why are the `RR charges' of these branes not quantized?

  1. Braid Group Representations and Defect Operators in AdS/CFT Correspondence

    hep-th 2025-05 reject novelty 2.0 of 10

    Bulk Wilson loop braidings are claimed to correspond to boundary defect operators via AdS/CFT, but the mapping is a restatement of the standard dictionary and lacks derivation.
