Pulsating strings in I-brane background

We study pulsating strings both on a single stack of NS5-branes and two orthogonal stacks of NS5-branes (the so called I-brane) by using the Polyakov form of the fundamental string action. For the I-brane background, by using a symmetry that decouples the two spheres from the flat geometry, we study pulsating solutions of the string when it pulsates on both the spheres independently and simultaneously. We finally derive the energy of pulsating strings as a function of adiabatic invariant oscillation number in these cases and studied some limiting cases in detail.

On spinning strings in I-brane background

We revisit semiclassical strings, in particular we focus on rigidly rotating strings, in the near horizon geometry of two orthogonal stacks of NS5-branes (I-branes) using the string sigma model.

Using configurations that move simultaneously on both spheres, we obtain the giant magnon like dispersion relation for one particular set of parameters, while other consistent set of values gives us a dispersion relation reminiscent of the single spike.

Spiky strings on I-brane

We study rigidly rotating strings in the near horizon geometry of the 1+1 dimensional intersection of two orthogonal stacks of NS5-branes, the so called I-brane background. We solve the equations of motion of the fundamental string action in the presence of two form NS-NS fluxes that the I-brane background supports and write down general form of conserved quantities. We further find out two limiting cases corresponding to giant magnon and single spike like strings in various parameter space of solutions.

Magnon like solutions for strings in I-brane background

We study the solutions for fundamental string rotating in a background generated by a 1+1 dimensional intersection of two orthogonal stacks of fivebranes in type IIB string theory. We show the existence of magnon like solutions for the string moving simultaneously in the two spheres in this background and find the relevant dispersion relation among the various conserved charges.

Fundamental string and D1-brane in I-brane background

This paper is devoted to the study of dynamics of fundamental string and D1-brane in I-brane background. We consider configurations where string and D1-brane uniformly wrap transverse spheres. We explicitly determine corresponding conserved charges and find relations between them.

Note about static D1-brane in I-brane background

In this short note we will construct the static solutions on the world volume of D1-brane embedded in I-brane background.

Dynamics of D1-brane in I-brane background

This paper is devoted to the study of the effective field theory description of the probe D1-brane in the background of the system of two stacks of fivebranes in type IIB theory that intersect on $R^{1,1}$. We study the properties of the Dirac-Born-Infeld action for D1-brane moving in this background. We will argue that this action is invariant under an additional symmetry in the near horizon limit and that this new symmetry is closely related to the enhanced symmetry of the I-brane background considered recently in [hep-th/0508025]. We also solve explicitly the equation of motion of D1-brane in the near horizon limit.
