We construct a general nonabelian (1,0) tensor multiplet theory in six dimensions. The gauge field of this (1,0) theory is non-dynamical, and the theory contains a continuous parameter $b$. When $b=1/2$, the (1,0) theory possesses an extra…

We construct a 6D nonabelian ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ theory by coupling an ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ tensor multiplet to an ${\cal N}=(1, 0)$ hypermultiplet. While the ${\cal N}=(1, 0)$ tensor multiplet is in the adjoint representation of the gauge group,…

By including an additional self-dual three-form we construct a Lorentz invariant lagrangian for the abelian (2,0) tensor supermultiplet. The extra three-form is a supersymmetry singlet and decouples from the (2,0) tensor supermultiplet. We…

In this paper, we study the equations of motion for non-Abelian N=(2,0) tensor multiplets in six dimensions, which were recently proposed by Lambert and Papageorgakis. Some equations are regarded as constraint equations. We employ a loop…

We make the observation that M-brane models defined in terms of 3-algebras can be interpreted as higher gauge theories involving Lie 2-groups. Such gauge theories arise in particular in the description of non-abelian gerbes. This…

We present a self-dual non-Abelian N=1 supersymmetric tensor multiplet in D=2+2 space-time dimensions. Our system has three on-shell multiplets: (i) The usual non-Abelian Yang-Mills multiplet (A_\mu{}^I, \lambda{}^I) (ii) A non-Abelian…

It is believed that the multiple M5-branes are described by the non-abelian (2,0) theory and have the non-local structure. In this note we investigate the non-abelian (2,0) theory in loop space which incorporates the non-local property. All…

We present a generalization of the six-dimensional (2,0) system of arXiv:1007.2982 to include a constant abelian 3-form. For vanishing 3-form this system is known to provide a variety descriptions of parallel M5-branes. For a particular…

We introduce a non-Abelian tensor multiplet directly in the loop space associated with flat six-dimensional Minkowski space-time, and derive the supersymmetry variations for on-shell ${\cal{N}}=(2,0)$ supersymmetry.

We present a superconformal tensor calculus for an arbitrary number of five dimensional N=2 linear multiplets. We also demonstrate how to construct higher derivative invariants and higher order supersymmetric off-diagonal models. Finally,…

We construct six-dimensional superconformal models with non-abelian tensor and hypermultiplets. They describe the field content of (2,0) theories, coupled to (1,0) vector multiplets. The latter are part of the non-abelian gauge structure…

We present a six-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(1,0)$ supersymmetric higher gauge theory in which self-duality is consistently implemented by physically trivial additional fields. The action contains both $\mathcal{N}=(1,0)$ tensor and vector…

We consider the equations of motion of the non-abelian 5-branes theory recently constructed in http://arxiv.org/abs/arXiv:1203.4224 and find exact string solutions both for uncompactified and compactified spacetime. Although one does not…

We show that the (1,0) tensor and hypermultiplet supersymmetry variations can be uplifted to loop space. Upon dimensional reduction we make contact with abelian five-dimensional super Yang-Mills, which has a nonabelian generalization that…

We show that the Bagger-Lambert theory of multiple M2-branes fits into the general construction of maximally supersymmetric gauge theories using the embedding tensor technique. We apply the embedding tensor technique in order to…

We carry out the N=1 supersymmetrization of a physical non-Abelian tensor with non-trivial consistent couplings in four dimensions. Our system has three multiplets: (i) The usual non-Abelian vector multiplet (VM) (A_\mu{}^I, \lambda^I),…

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…

We give the nonabelian extension of the newly discovered N = (2, 2) two-dimensional vector multiplets. These can be used to gauge symmetries of sigma models on generalized Kahler geometries. Starting from the transformation rule for the…

We present an interacting system of equations with sixteen supersymmetries and an $SO(2)\times SO(6)$ R-symmetry where the fields depend on two space and one null dimensions that is derived from a representation of the six-dimensional (2,0)…

We construct an action for non-abelian 2-form in 6-dimensions. Our action consists of a non-abelian generalization of the abelian action of Perry and Schwarz for a single five-brane. It admits a self-duality equation on the field strength…
