Eleven Dimensions from the Massive D-2-brane
نویسنده
چکیده
We find an eleven dimensional description of the D-2-brane of the massive type IIA theory as a first step towards an understanding of this theory in eleven dimensions. By means of a world-volume IIA/M theory duality transformation we show that the massive D-2-brane is equivalent to the dimensional reduction of the eleven dimensional membrane coupled to an auxiliary vector field. The role of this vector field is to preserve the invariance under massive gauge transformations in the world-volume and has non-trivial dynamics, governed by a Chern-Simons term proportional to 1/m.

Spherically Symmetric Solutions in a New Braneworld Massive Gravity Theory
In this paper, a combination of the braneworld scenario and covariant de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) massive Gravity theory is proposed. In this setup, the five-dimensional bulk graviton is considered to be massive. The five dimensional nonlinear ghost-free massive gravity theory affects the 3-brane dynamics and the gravitational potential on the brane. Following the solutions with spherical s...
متن کاملBreathing mode compactifications and supersymmetry of the brane-world
It has recently been shown that the Randall-Sundrum brane-world may be obtained from an appropriate doubled D3-brane configuration in type IIB theory. This corresponds, in five dimensions, to a sphere compactification of the original IIB theory with a non-trivial breathing mode supporting the brane. In this paper, we shall study the supersymmetry of this reduction to massive five-dimensional su...
متن کاملD-Branes and Twelve Dimensions
We study the D-brane solutions to type IIB superstring in ten dimensions and find interpretation in terms of compactification of a twelve dimensional three-brane of (a specific) F-theory on a torus T 2. In this frame-work, there also exist a two-brane which may be argued to be equivalent to the three-brane by utilizing the electric-magnetic duality in eleven dimensions. In this context, we prop...
متن کاملThe Kaluza-Klein Monopole in a Massive IIA Background
We construct the effective action of the KK-monopole in a massive Type IIA background. We follow two approaches. First we construct a massive M-theory KK-monopole from which the IIA monopole is obtained by double dimensional reduction. This eleven dimensional monopole contains two isometries: one under translations of the TaubNUT coordinate and the other under massive transformations of the emb...
متن کاملA Note About Localized Photons on the Brane
The Maxwell action on the brane is obtained through a RandallSundrum dimentional reduction. Also, the self dual and the topologically massive actions for vectors in three dimensions can be obtained from Randall-Sundrum dimentional reduction. In the Randall-Sundrum mechanism[1], gravitons and scalar fields in D = d + 1 dimensions described by the Einstein-Hilbert and Klein-Gordon actions respect...
