Notes on D-Branes
read the original abstract
This is a series of remedial lectures on open and unoriented strings for the heterotic string generation. The particular focus is on the interesting features that arise under T-duality---D-branes and orientifolds. The final lecture discusses the application to string duality. There will be no puns. Lectures presented by J. P. at the ITP from Nov. 16 to Dec. 5, 1995. References updated through Jan. 25, 1996.

D-branes and fractional instantons on a twisted four torus: the moduli space as an N=2 supersymmetric Higgs branch
The local moduli space of self-dual fractional instantons (Q = r/N) on a twisted four-torus is the Higgs branch of an N=2 supersymmetric theory, obtained via wrapped intersecting D-brane configurations.

Tachyonic AdS/QCD, Determining the Strong Running Coupling and \beta-function in both UV and IR Regions of AdS Space
A tachyonic AdS/QCD construction deforms the bulk geometry with a tachyon-dependent dielectric function to produce a unified running coupling from perturbative UV to nonperturbative IR regimes.
