Fate of the Born-Infeld solution in string theory
Abstract
We argue that the Born-Infeld solution on the D9-brane is unstable under inclusion of derivative corrections to Born-Infeld theory coming from string theory. More specifically, we find no electrostatic solutions to the first order corrected Born-Infeld theory on the D9-brane which give a finite value for the Lagrangian.
