These include the precise microphysics underlying the thermodynamic behavior of certain black holes and remarkable holographic dualities between large-N gauge theories and gravity. This book serves as a comprehensive introduction to the technology of D-branes, presenting their development in a pedagogical manner. The introductory material is constructed by initially delving into the essential aspects of string theory required to swiftly grasp D-branes. Numerous advanced applications are covered, with discussions of open problems that could serve as the foundation for other research avenues. Suitable as a textbook in graduate courses on modern string theory and theoretical particle physics, it will also be an indispensable reference for seasoned practitioners.
