Type IIB instanton as a wave in twelve dimensions
A. A. Tseytlin
Abstract
0-brane of type IIA string theory can be interpreted as a dimensional reduction of a gravitational wave in 11 dimensions. We observe that a similar interpretation applies also to the D-instanton background of type IIB theory: it can be viewed as a reduction (along one spatial and one time-like direction) of a wave in a 12-dimensional theory. The instanton charge is thus related to a linear momentum in 12 dimensions. This suggests that the instanton should play as important role in type IIB theory as the 0-brane is supposed to play in type IIA theory.
