Duality of type-II 7-branes and 8-branes
Open accessAbstract
We present a version of ten-dimensional IIA supergravity containing a 9-form potential for which the field equations are equivalent to those of the standard, massless, IIA theory for vanishing 10-form field strength, F 10 , and to those of the ‘massive’ IIA theory for non-vanishing F 10 . We present a multi 8-brane solution of these equations that generalizes the 8-brane of Polchinski and Witten. We show that this solution is T -dual to a new multi 7-brane solution of S 1 compactified IIIB supergravity, and that the latter is T -dual to the IIA 6-brane. When combined with the Sl(2; Z ) U -duality of the type-IIB superstring, the T -duality between type-11 7-branes and 8-branes implies a quantization of the cosmological constant of type-IIA superstring theory. These results are made possible by the construction of a new massive N = 2 D = 9 supergravity theory. We also discuss the 11-dimensional interpretation of these type-II p -branes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
