In built noncommutativity of supermembranes with central charges in eleven dimensions is disclosed. This result is used to construct an action for a noncommutative supermembrane where interesting topological terms appear. In order to do so,…
We present a three dimensional novel massive N=2 super Yang-Mills action as a low energy effective worldvolume description of the D2-branes on a pp-wave. The action contains the Myers term, mass terms for three Higgs, and terms mixing the…
We show that an action of a supermembrane in an eleven-dimensional spacetime with a semi-light-cone gauge can be written only with Nambu-Poisson bracket and an invariant symmetric bilinear form under an approximation. Thus, the action under…
We classify the supersymmetric mass deformations of all the super Yang-Mills quantum mechanics, which are obtained by dimensional reductions of minimal super Yang-Mills in spacetime dimensions: ten, six, four, three and two. The resulting…
We classify canonical metric 3-algebra structures on matrix algebras and find novel three-dimensional conformally invariant actions in N=4 projective superspace based on them. These can be viewed as Chern-Simons theories with special matter…
We consider periodic arrays of M2-branes in the ABJM model in the spirit of a circle compactification to D2-branes in type IIA string theory. The result is a curious formulation of three-dimensional maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills…
We consider Yang-Mills theory with $N{=}1$ super translation group in eleven auxiliary dimensions as the structure group. The gauge theory is defined on a direct product manifold $\Sigma_3\times S^1$, where $\Sigma_3$ is a three-dimensional…
We present a geometric formulation of type-IIA and -IIB superstring theories in which the Wess-Zumino term is second order in the supersymmetric currents. The currents are constructed using supergroup manifolds corresponding to…
The realization of ${\cal N}=2$ four dimensional super Yang-Mills theories in terms of a single Dirichlet fivebrane in type IIB string theory is considered. A classical brane computation reproduces the full quantum low energy effective…
Abstrct: We show that the action of self-dual supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in four-dimensions, which describes the consistent massless background fields for $~N=2$~ superstring, generates the actions for $~N=1$~ and $~N=2$~…
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…
We construct a Lie 3-algebra extended model of the IIB matrix model. It admits any Lie 3-algebra and possesses the same supersymmetry as the original matrix model, and thus as type IIB superstring theory. We examine dynamics of the model by…
We present an action for a six-dimensional superconformal field theory containing a non-abelian tensor multiplet. All of the ingredients of this action have been available in the literature. We bring these pieces together by choosing the…
Motivated by the recent proposal of an N=8 supersymmetric action for multiple M2-branes, we study the Lie 3-algebra in detail. In particular, we focus on the fundamental identity and the relation with Nambu-Poisson bracket. Some new…
Supersymmetric field theories on noncommutative spaces are constructed. We present two different representations of noncommutative space, but we can obtain supersymmetry algebla and supersymmetric Yang-Mills action independent of its…
There are an infinite number of type IIB superstrings in ten dimensions, called (p,q) strings, that are labeled by two distinct string charges. They can form string junctions and string networks. These are the key to understanding the…
Starting from the type IIB Dirichlet 3-brane action, we obtain a Nambu-Goto action. It is interpreted as the world volume action of a fundamental 3-brane, and its target space theory as F-theory. The target space is twelve dimensional, with…
We provide a classification of the IIB D$p$- and NS$p$-branes in which the brane action exists due to a non-trivial class of the Chevalley-Eilenberg cohomology of free differential algebras. We then present a new geometric formulation of…
The action for an 11-dimensional supermembrane contains a chiral Wess-Zumino-Witten model coupling to the E8 super-Yang-Mills theory on the end-of-the-world 9-brane. It is demonstrated that this boundary string theory is dictated both by…
In this note we discuss the theory of super-threebranes in a spacetime of signature (10,2). Upon reduction, the threebrane provides us with the classical representations of the M-2-brane and the type IIB superstring. Many features of the…
