Abstract
We show that the renormalization group flows of the massless superstring modes in the presence of fluctuating D-branes satisfy the equations of fluid dynamics. In particular, we show that the D-brane's U(1) field is related to the velocity function in the Navier–Stokes equation while the dilaton plays the role of the passive scalar advected by the turbulent liquid. This leads us to suggest a possible isomorphism between the off-shell superstring theory in the presence of fluctuating D-branes and the fluid mechanical degrees of freedom.
