摘要
We give a universal SL(2, R)-invariant expression for all IIB p-brane actions with p = -1, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9. The Wess-Zumino terms in the brane actions are determined by requiring (i) target space gauge invariance and (ii) the presence of a single Born-Infeld vector. We find that for p = 7 (p = 9) brane actions with these properties only exist for orbits that contain the standard D7-brane (D9-brane). We comment about the actions for the other orbits.
