We review the recent developments in our understanding of non-BPS states and branes in string theory. The topics include 1) construction of unstable non-BPS D-branes in type IIA and type IIB string theories, 2) construction of stable non-BPS D-branes on various orbifolds and orientifolds of type II string theories, 3) description of BPS and non-BPS D-branes as tachyonic soliton solutions on brane-antibrane pair of higher dimension, and 4) study of the spectrum of non-BPS states and branes on a system of coincident D-brane - orientifold plane system. Some other related results are also discussed briefly.

The Art of Networking: Networks of Trivalent 10d Heterotic Junctions
The paper constructs arbitrary networks of 10d non-tachyonic heterotic string theories via cobordism-implied junctions and gives worldsheet realizations for graphs, higher-dimensional networks, and compact configurati...

Non-supersymmetric dualities beyond the gauge algebra
Verification of Blum-Dienes and Bergman-Gaberdiel dualities shows agreement in gauge group global forms from orientifold brane states and internal lattices, with one subtle projection exception.

Instanton-Induced Closed-String Amplitudes in Minimal Superstring Theory at Subleading Order
Explicit computation of instanton-induced amplitudes in minimal superstring theories at subleading order, after regulating open-string degenerations with string field theory, yields exact agreement with DDK-KPZ scaling.

Heterotic Ouroboros
The seven non-supersymmetric heterotic strings are re-derived from M-theory on S^1∨S^1 via an 'ouroboros' type I' configuration whose rules are fitted to reproduce the known spectra; new junctions among the theories a...

A Matrix Theory Construction of the IIA/IIB Wall
A lightlike IIA/IIB domain wall is constructed at zero string coupling by gauging (−1)^{F_L} in matrix string theory, turning BPS IIA D0-branes into non-BPS IIB D0-branes.

R-symmetries, anomalies and non-invertible defects from non-BPS branes
The U(1)_R symmetry operator of the Klebanov-Witten theory is realized by a non-BPS KK monopole, whose worldvolume action matches the SymTh operator and anomaly coefficients.

On the Physics of Higher Condensation Defects
Topological defects from higher gauging are shown, via explicit Lagrangian computations, to satisfy the Karoubi completeness condition of Johnson-Freyd's higher fusion categories, and this is identified with splitting...

Anomaly Inflow and Gauge Group Topology in the 10d Sugimoto String Theory
Anomaly inflow on Sugimoto model branes supports the conclusion that the 10d gauge group is Sp(16)/Z2, and the same inflow matching rules out most alternative chiral spectra.

Fire at the Tip of the Throat: Hagedorn Phase after brane-antibrane inflation?
In perturbatively moduli-stabilized brane-antibrane inflation, a modest fraction of annihilation energy into visible open strings can trigger a Hagedorn phase that suppresses ΔN_eff when the SM throat string scale is ...

Pure D-brane Black Holes: BPS Counting and non-BPS Vacua
The (1,1,1,5) and (1,1,1,6) D2-D2-D2-D6 BPS systems yield 2032 and 5616 vacua, matching U-duality, while the analogous non-BPS system has no zero-energy vacua and six doubly-degenerate low-energy minima.

Thermodynamics vs Teleodynamics: A Cosmological Divide?
Stationary black holes obey ordinary thermodynamics but cosmology requires memory-bearing teleodynamics, with horizon memory causing deviations from the area law.
