Covariant Field Equations of the M Theory Five - Brane
The component form of the equations of motion for the 5-brane in eleven-dimensions is derived from the superspace equations. These equations are fully covariant in six-dimensions. It is shown that double-dimensional reduction of the bosonic equations gives the equations of motion for a 4-brane in ten dimensions governed by the Born-Infeld action.
متن کاملFive-brane Effective Action in M -theory
On the world-volume of an M -theory five-brane propagates a two-form with selfdual field strength. As this field is non-Lagrangian, there is no obvious framework for determining its partition function. An analogous problem exists in Type IIB superstring theory for the self-dual five-form. The resolution of these problems and definition of the partition function is explained. A more complete ana...
متن کاملFive-Brane Superpotentials in Heterotic M-theory
The open supermembrane contribution to the non-perturbative superpotential of bulk space five-branes in heterotic M -theory is presented. We explicitly compute the superpotential for the modulus associated with the separation of a bulk five-brane from an end-of-the-world three-brane. The gauge and κ-invariant boundary strings of such open supermembranes are given and the role of the holomorphic...
متن کاملThe M Theory Five - Brane 1
BPS saturated p-branes play an important role in recent progress in understanding superstring theory and M theory. One approach to understanding the dynamics of p-branes is to formulate an effective (p+1)-dimensional world-volume theory. The construction of such brane actions involves a number of interesting issues. One such issue is how to formulate the action for theories that contain chiral ...
متن کاملD-brane Conformal Field Theory
We outline the structure of boundary conditions in conformal field theory. A boundary condition is specified by a consistent collection of reflection coefficients for bulk fields on the disk together with a choice of an automorphism ω of the fusion rules that preserves conformal weights. Non-trivial automorphisms ω correspond to D-brane configurations for arbitrary conformal field theories.
