n-ary algebras: A review with applications

JA de Azcarraga, JM Izquierdo - Journal of Physics A …, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
This paper reviews the properties and applications of certain n-ary generalizations of Lie
algebras in a self-contained and unified way. These generalizations are algebraic structures …

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 …

𝒩= 6 superconformal Chern-Simons-matter theories, M2-branes and their gravity duals

O Aharony, O Bergman, DL Jafferis… - Journal of High Energy …, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
We construct three dimensional Chern-Simons-matter theories with gauge groups U (N)× U
(N) and SU (N)× SU (N) which have explicit Script N= 6 superconformal symmetry. Using …

𝒩= 5, 6 superconformal Chern-Simons theories and M2-branes on orbifolds

K Hosomichi, KM Lee, S Lee, S Lee… - Journal of High Energy …, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
We explore further our recent generalization of the Script N= 4 superconformal Chern-
Simons theories of Gaiotto and Witten. We find and construct explicitly theories of enhanced …

On type IIA Penrose limit and 𝒩= 6 Chern-Simons theories

T Nishioka, T Takayanagi - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract Recently, Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis and Maldacena proposed that the Script N= 6
Chern-Simons gauge theories are holographically dual to the M-theory backgrounds with …

A massive study of M2-brane proposals

J Gomis, D Rodriguez-Gomez… - Journal of High …, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
We test the proposals for the worldvolume theory of M2-branes by studying its maximally
supersymmetric mass-deformation. We check the simplest prediction for the mass-deformed …

The complete AdS4× CP3 superspace for the type IIA superstring and D-branes

J Gomis, D Sorokin, L Wulff - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
We lift the bosonic AdS 4× CP 3 solution of type IIA supergravity preserving 24
supersymmetries to a D= 10 superspace which has 32 Grassmann-odd directions. The type …

Tilings, Chern-Simons theories and M2 branes

A Hanany, A Zaffaroni - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
A new infinite class of Chern-Simons theories in 2+ 1 dimensions is presented using brane
tilings. The new class reproduces all known cases so far and introduces many new models …

Studies of the ABJM Theory in a Formulation with Manifest SU (4) R-Symmetry

MA Bandres, AE Lipstein… - Journal of High Energy …, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
We examine the three-dimensional Script N= 6 superconformal Chern-Simons theory with U
(N)× U (N) gauge symmetry, which was recently constructed by Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis …

On M5-branes in 𝒩= 6 membrane action

S Terashima - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
In this note we study M5-branes in the multiple membrane action which is recently proposed
by Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena. We write down the Script N= 6 supersymmetry …
