We study the target space duality transformations in p-branes as transformations which mix the world volume field equations with Bianchi identities. We consider an (m+p+1)-dimensional space-time with p+1 dimensions compactified, and a particular form of the background fields. We find that while a GL (2) = SL (2) × R group is realized when m = 0, only a two-parameter group is realized when m > 0.

We analyze the world volume solitons of a D3-brane probe in the background of parallel (p, q) five-branes. The D3-brane is embedded along the directions transverse to the five-branes of the background. By using the S duality invariance of the D3-brane, we find a first-order differential equation whose solutions saturate an energy bound. The SO(3) invariant solutions of this equation are found analytically. They represent world volume solitons which can be interpreted as formed by parallel (-q, p) strings emanating from the D3-brane world volume. It is shown that these configurations are 1/4 supersymmetric and provide a world volume realization of the Hanany–Witten effect.
