M2-branes stretching between M5-branes
A generalization of Nahm’s equation has been recently conjectured by Basu and Harvey to be the BPS condition describing the bound state of a stack of M2branes ending on an M5-brane. In this note exact solutions are presented for the proposed BPS equation – which is from the point of view of the M2-brane world-volume dynamics – with boundary conditions appropriate for M2-branes stretching betwee...
متن کاملIntersecting M2– and M5–branes
If an M2–brane intersects an M5–brane the canonical Wess–Zumino action is plagued by a Dirac–anomaly, i.e. a non–integer change of the action under a change of Dirac–brane. We show that this anomaly can be eliminated at the expense of a gravitational anomaly supported on the intersection manifold. Eventually we check that the last one is cancelled by the anomaly produced by the fermions present...
متن کاملOn Matrix models of M5 branes
We compare the (0, 2) theory of the single M5 brane decoupled from gravity in the lightcone with transverse R, and a matrix model description in terms of quantum mechanics on instanton moduli space. We give some tests of the Matrix model in the case of multi fivebranes on R. We extract constraints on the operator content of the field theory of the multi-fivebrane system by analyzing the Matrix ...
متن کاملLiouville/Toda central charges from M5-branes
We show that the central charge of the Liouville and ADE Toda theories can be reproduced by equivariantly integrating the anomaly eight-form of the corresponding six-dimensional N = (0, 2) theories, which describe the low-energy dynamics of M5-branes.
متن کاملLight-cone M5 and multiple M2-branes
We present the light-cone gauge fixed Lagrangian for the M5-brane; it has a residual ‘exotic’ gauge invariance with the group of 5-volume preserving diffeomorphisms, SDiff5, as gauge group. For an M5-brane of topology R 2 ×M3, for closed 3-manifold M3, we find an infinite tension limit that yields an SO(8)-invariant (1 + 2)-dimensional field theory with ‘exotic’ SDiff3 gauge invariance. We show...
