LIOUVILLE AND TODA SOLITONS IN M-THEORY
LIOUVILLE AND TODA SOLITONS IN M-THEORY
We study the general form of the equations for isotropic single-scalar, multi-scalar and dyonic p-branes in superstring theory and M-theory, and show that they can be cast into the form of Liouville, Toda (or Toda-like) equations. The general solutions describe non-extremal isotropic p-branes, reducing to the previously-known extremal solutions in …
