Representations of p-brane topological charge algebras

High Energy Physics - Theory 2008-11-26 v2

Abstract

The known extended algebras associated with p-branes are shown to be generated as topological charge algebras of the standard p-brane actions. A representation of the charges in terms of superspace forms is constructed. The charges are shown to be the same in standard/extended superspace formulations of the action.
