M 5 - branes with 3 / 8 supersymmetry in pp - wave background ∗
نویسنده
چکیده
We construct M5-branes with 3/4 supersymmetry and find that they preserve exactly half of the background pp-wave supersymmetries. We explicitly write down the standard as well as supernumerary Killing spinors and find that their respective numbers are also half of those for the pp-wave background. This is line with the recent work of Dabholkar et.al. which shows that half supersymmetric D-branes can be constructed in pp-wave backgrounds.

p − p ′ Branes in PP - wave Background
We present several supergravity solutions corresponding to both Dp, as well as Dp−Dp′ systems, in NS-NS and R-R PP-wave background originating from AdS3×S×R. The Dp brane solutions, p = 1, .., 5 are fully localized, whereas Dp−Dp′ are localized along common transverse directions. We also discuss the supersymmetry properties of these solutions and the worldsheet construction for the p− p′ system.
متن کاملBranes in AdS and pp-wave spacetimes
We find half supersymmetric AdS-embeddings in AdS5 × S5 corresponding to all quarter BPS orthogonal intersections of D3-branes with Dp-branes. A particular case is the Karch-Randall embedding AdS4 × S2. We explicitly prove that these embeddings are supersymmetric by showing that the kappa symmetry projections are compatible with half of the target space Killing spinors and argue that all these ...
متن کاملThe PP - Wave Limits of Orbifolded AdS 5 × S 5
Using the supergravity solution of N1 D3-branes probing AN2−1 singularities we study the pp-wave limit of AdS5×S/ZN2 . We show that there are two different pp-wave limits. One is the orbifold of the pp-wave limit of AdS5×S. In this case there is no symmetry enhancement. The other case is the same as the pp-wave limit of AdS5 × S and therefore we again see the maximal supersymmetry. We will also...
متن کاملD-Brane Solutions in pp-wave Background
We present classical solutions for a D5 and NS5-branes in a pp-wave background. The worldvolume coordinates for these branes lie along a six dimensional pp-wave configuration obtained from AdS3 × S3 in a Penrose limit. One in addition has nontrivial R-R 3-form field strength as well as a dilaton background. Classical solutions for Dp-branes (p > 5), as well as their bound states, are then gener...
متن کاملRotating Rotated Branes
We present a class of spacetime rotations that preserve a proportion of spacetime supersymmetry. We then give the rules for superposing these rotations with various branes to construct rotating brane solutions which preserve exotic fractions of supersymmetry. We also investigate the superposition of rotations with intersecting branes at angles and we find new rotating intersecting branes at ang...
