BPS Configuration of Supermembrane With Winding in M-direction

چکیده
We study de Wit-Hoppe-Nicolai supermembrane with emphasis on the winding in M-direction. We propose a SUSY algebra of the supermembrane in the Lorentz invariant form. We analyze the BPS conditions and argue that the area preserving diffeomorphism constraints associated with the harmonic vector fields play an essential role. We derive the first order partial differential equation that describes the BPS state with one quarter SUSY. hep-th/9706002 ∗JSPS fellow 1 e-mail address : [email protected] 2 e-mail address : [email protected] 3 e-mail address : [email protected] 1

We analyze the BPS conditions and argue that the area preserving diieomorphism constraints associated with the harmonic vector elds play an essential role.

متن کاملThe Heat Kernel of the Compactified D = 11 Supermembrane with Non-trivial Winding
We study the quantization of the regularized hamiltonian, H , of the compactified D = 11 supermembrane with nontrivial winding. By showing that H is a relatively small perturbation of the bosonic hamiltonian, we construct a Dyson-type series for the heat kernel of H and prove its convergence in the topology of the von Neumann-Schatten classes so that e is ensured to be of finite trace. The resu...
متن کاملThe Supermembrane with Winding
The supersymmetry algebra for supermembranes, quantized in the light-cone gauge, exhibits central charges induced by wrapping the membrane around compact dimensions. These central charges are manifestly consistent with Lorentz symmetry. While the central charges raise the mass of the membrane states, they still leave the mass spectrum continuous, at least generically. The lower bound on the mas...
متن کاملOn the Spectrum of a Matrix Model for the D=11 Supermembrane Compactified on a Torus with Non-trivial Winding
The spectrum of the Hamiltonian of the double compactified D = 11 supermembrane with non-trivial central charge or equivalently the non-commutative symplectic super Maxwell theory is analyzed. In distinction to what occurs for the D = 11 supermembrane in Minkowski target space where the bosonic potential presents string-like spikes which render the spectrum of the supersymmetric model continuou...
متن کاملDecays of near BPS heterotic strings
The decay of highly excited massive string states in compactified heterotic string theories is discussed. We calculate the decay rate and spectrum of states carrying momentum and winding in the compactified direction. The longest lived states in the spectrum are near BPS states whose decay is dominated by a single decay channel of massless radiation which brings the state closer to being BPS.
