D3-branes in NS5-brane backgrounds
Preprint
Abstract
We study D3-branes in an NS5-branes background defined by an arbitrary 4d harmonic function. Using a gauge-invariant formulation of Born-Infeld dynamics as well as the supersymmetry condition, we find the general solution for the $\omega$-field. We propose an interpretation in terms of the Myers effect.Keywords
