We discuss how to generate a dynamical Dp-brane with a topology of Rp-2×S2 from N D(p-2)-branes with Rp-2 topology with or without the presence of a constant RR(p+2)-form flux.This extends the previous work(Chen and Lu 2004 arXiv:hep-th/0405265)of generating a dynamical spherical D2 brane from N D0 branes in a constant RR four-form flux to a general p.In particular,dynamically generating a higher dimensional brane from lower dimensional ones does not necessarily need the presence of a relevant RR background flux but needs excess energy,lending support to the spacetime uncertainty principle.The time evolution of the dynamical p-brane for a general p remains the same as for the p=2 case,however there is a class of spatial dependent Dp configurations when p≥3.Some of these spatial-dependent Dp brane configurations and their properties have been discussed previously which can also be obtained from the time-dependent one by euclideanizing the time.Properties of the spatial-dependent solutions and their relations to the corresponding brane-anti brane system are discussed.
