Abstract
We discuss the geometry of string and M-theory gauge fields in Deligne cohomology. In particular, we show how requiring string structure (or loop space Spin-C structure) on the five-brane leads to topological conditions on the flux in the relative Deligne cohomology of the bulk - brain pair.
