Abstract：In this seminar, we talk about the search for the fundamental theory of the universe as well asunification. We would like to introduce to you the fundamental objects, "D-branes" in String Theory.The main goal of our talk is to convey to you the importance of these objects not only in StringTheory and fundamental physics but also in the other fields such as Mathematical Physics andGeometry. We also highlight their roles in exploring further symmetries and unification. We try to talk about all kinds of effective actions in String Theory, involving DBI, Chern-Simons and moreimportantly new Wess-Zumino actions. We would also like to provide a comprehensive explanationnot only for BPS branes but also for D-brane-anti D-brane systems. Along with those actions, we alsointroduce various new techniques for mathematicians/string theorists for which getting the exactand final form of the world-sheet integrals to all orders will be presented. Eventually, we makevarious remarks on how to derive without any ambiguity all order α’ corrections to some of theeffective actions. We then mention several applications related to those effective actions for BlackHoles and Cosmology as well as other related areas.
