A nonabelian M5 brane Lagrangian in a supergravity background

High Energy Physics - Theory 2020-10-28 v3

Abstract

We present a nonabelian Lagrangian that appears to have (2,0)(2,0) superconformal symmetry and that can be coupled to a supergravity background. But for our construction to work, we have to break this superconformal symmetry by imposing as a constraint on top of the Lagrangian that the fields have vanishing Lie derivatives along a Killing direction.
