Multiple Membranes in M-theory

J Bagger, N Lambert, S Mukhi, C Papageorgakis - Physics Reports, 2013 - Elsevier
We review developments in the theory of multiple, parallel membranes in M-theory. After
discussing the inherent difficulties with constructing a maximally supersymmetric lagrangian …

On S-duality of 5d super Yang-Mills on S 1

Y Tachikawa - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2011 - Springer
A bstract We study a duality of 5d maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills on S 1, which
exchanges the tower of Kaluza-Klein W-bosons and the tower of instantonic monopoles …

(2, 0) supersymmetry and the light-cone description of M5-branes

N Lambert, P Richmond - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2012 - Springer
A bstract In arxiv: 1007.2982 a novel system of equations which propagate in one null and
four space directions were obtained as the on-shell conditions for the six-dimensional (2, 0) …

The 3-Lie algebra (2, 0) tensor multiplet and equations of motion on loop space

C Papageorgakis, C Sämann - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2011 - Springer
We show that a recently found set of supersymmetric equations of motion for a 3-Lie algebra-
valued (2, 0) tensor multiplet finds a natural interpretation as supersymmetric gauge field …

M-theory and maximally supersymmetric gauge theories

N Lambert - Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2012 - annualreviews.org
In this informal review for nonspecialists, we discuss the construction of maximally
supersymmetric gauge theories that arise on the world-volume branes in string theory and M …

Note on non-Abelian two-form gauge fields

PM Ho, Y Matsuo - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2012 - Springer
A bstract Motivated by application to multiple M5-branes, we study some properties of non-
Abelian two-form gauge theories. We emphasize that the fake curvature condition which is …

Non-Abelian chiral 2-form and M5-branes

KW Huang - arxiv preprint arxiv:1206.3983, 2012 - arxiv.org
We first review self-dual (chiral) gauge field theories by studying their Lorentz non-covariant
and Lorentz covariant formulations. We next construct a non-Abelian self-dual two-form …

Aspects of effective theory for multiple M5-branes compactified on circle

PM Ho, Y Matsuo - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2014 - Springer
A bstract A supersymmetric non-Abelian self-dual gauge theory with the explicit introduction
of Kaluza-Klein modes is proposed to give a classical description of multiple M5-branes …

3d superconformal indices and isomorphisms of M2-brane theories

M Honda, Y Honma - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 - Springer
A bstract We test several expected isomorphisms between the U (N)× U (N) ABJM theory
and (SU (N)× SU (N))/\({{\mathbb {Z}} _N}\) theory including the BLG theory by comparing …

M2-branes and the (2, 0) superalgebra

N Lambert, D Sacco - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016 - Springer
A bstract We present a generalization of the six-dimensional (2, 0) system of arxiv:
1007.2982 to include a constant abelian 3-form. For vanishing 3-form this system is known …
