Three subjects are considered here: a self-dual non-critical string that appears in Type IIB superstring theory at points in ${\rm K3}$ moduli space where the Type IIA theory has extended gauge…

Dirichlet Branes and Ramond-Ramond charges.
We show that D-branes, extended objects defined by mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions, break half the supersymmetries of the type II superstring and carry a complete set of electric and…

TLDR
The case of Dirichlet string theory is focused on, and it is found that the effects of boundaries are naturally weighted by [ital e][sup [minus][ital O](1/[ital g][sub st])].
