The one-loop effective action for a p brane embedded in a D = p+2 Minkowski spacetime in the static gauge is calculated. Rescaling the quantum fluctuation by (−g0)1/2 evaluated on the background brane leads to the one-loop effective action expressed only in terms of infrared and ultraviolet divergent geometric scalars. After the infrared divergences are absorbed into the quantum fluctuation, there remains the finite number of ultraviolet divergences. This implies that the D = p+2 Poincare…

Colliding Waves on a Brane, the Big Bounce and Reconnection

We present a time-dependent solution of the Nambu-Goto action which represents two colliding waves moving at the speed of light. This solution can be decomposed into two distinct regions with

Oscillating p-branes

Coset methods are used to construct the action describing the dynamics associated with the spontaneous breaking of the Poincare symmetries of D dimensional space-time due to the embedding of a

One loop divergencies in the theory of gravitation

All one-loop divergencies of pure gravity and all those of gravitation interacting with a scalar particle are calculated. In the case of pure gravity, no physically relevant divergencies remain;

Strings, Monopoles and Gauge Fields

The Nielsen-Olesen interpretation of dual strings as Abrikosov flux lines is extended to the case of open-ended strings by adapting Dirac's description of magnetic monopoles to a London-type theory.
