We discuss the BPS configurations of IIB strings in the 7-brane background from M-theory viewpoint. We first obtain the hyperkahler geometry background of M-theory expected from the 7-brane solutions of the type IIB supergravity. We choose…
We construct p-brane solutions with non-trivial world volume metrics and show that applied to supergravity theories, they will lead to threshold BPS bound states of intersecting solutions. However applied to certain specific values of the…
We relate the counting of refined BPS numbers on compact elliptically fibred Calabi-Yau threefolds $X$ to Wilson loop expectations values in the gauge theories that emerge in various rigid local limits of the 5d supergravity theory defined…
We propose an exact, finite $N$ formula for the partition function over $1/4^{th}$ BPS states in the conformal field theory on the world volume of $N$ coincident M5 branes and $1/8^{th}$ BPS states in the theory of $N$ coincident M2 branes.…
We construct a new NS5-brane solution in AdS_4 x CP^3 with S^2 x S^3 topology. This solution belongs to the general class of non-Einstein N_{11} metrics to which T^{1,1} belongs, and carries a non-vanishing D0-brane charge. In eleven…
We derive an integrable reflection matrix for the scattering of excitations from a boundary with a degree of freedom when the reflection process preserves an $SU(1|2)$ symmetry. As this residual symmetry is not sufficient to fully determine…
We construct a new classical solution in the ABJM theory corresponding to M5-branes with a non-zero self-dual three form flux. This is an M-theory lift of the D4-brane solution expressed as a non-commutative plane in the three dimensional…
This thesis starts with a review of BPS M-branes and their supergravity solutions. These solutions can be obtained in various ways. We describe the harmonic function rule and the Fayyazuddin-Smith metric ansatz in detail, illustrating both…

We study three point functions of half BPS operators in $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory focusing on correltors of two of the operators with dimension of order $\Delta\sim N^2$ and a light single trace operator. These describe vacuum…
We consider $\mathfrak{so}_4$ invariant matrix product states (MPS) in the $\mathfrak{so}_6$ symmetric integrable spin chain and prove their integrability. These MPS appear as fuzzy three-sphere solutions of matrix models with…
We study supersymmetric intersections of M2 and M5 branes with different pp-waves of M-theory. We consider first M-brane probes in the background of pp-waves and determine under which conditions the embedding is supersymmetric. We…
We explicitly construct soliton solutions in the low energy description of M-theory on S^1/Z_2. It is shown that the 11-dimensional membrane is a BPS solution of this theory if stretched between the Z_2 hyperplanes. A similar statement…
We present BPS indices of the supergroup WZW models that live on intersecting M2-M5 brane systems. They can encode data of the stretched M2-branes between M5-branes and count the BPS states. They are generally expressed in terms of mock…
Boundary integrability provides rare analytic control over field theories with interfaces, from quantum impurity problems to open string dynamics. We propose an analytic approach for integrable boundaries in two-dimensional sigma-models…
M-theory on the maximally supersymmetric plane wave background of eleven-dimensional supergravity admits spherical BPS transverse M5-branes with zero light-cone energy. We give direct evidence that the single M5-brane state corresponds to…
