Magnetic Carrollian theories provide a natural setting for field theories with nontrivial spatial structure in the Carroll limit and are therefore natural candidates for flat-space holographic duals. Embedding such boundary theories into a…
We study maximal subalgebras of an arbitrary finite dimensional algebra over a field, and obtain full classification/description results of such algebras. This is done by first obtaining a complete classification in the semisimple case, and…
The Born--Infeld-like effective world-volume theory of a single 3-brane is deduced from a manifestly space-time supersymmetric description of the corresponding $D$-brane. This is shown to be invariant under $SL(2,R)$ transformations that…
