We construct intersecting D-brane configurations that encode the gauge groups and field content of dual N=4 supersymmetric gauge theories in three dimensions. The duality which exchanges the Coulomb and Higgs branches and the…

We apply the light-cone hamiltonian approach to D2-brane, and derive the equivalent gauge-invariant Lagrangian. The later appears to be that of three-dimensional Yang-Mills theory, interacting with matter fields, in the special external…

Brane brick models are Type IIA brane configurations that encode the $2d$ $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ gauge theories on the worldvolume of D1-branes probing toric Calabi-Yau 4-folds. We use mirror symmetry to improve our understanding of this…

The three-algebras used by Bagger and Lambert in N=6 theories of ABJM type are in one-to-one correspondence with a certain type of Lie superalgebras. We show that the description of three-algebras as generalized Jordan triple systems…

This thesis consists of two parts. In the first part we investigate the worldvolume supersymmetry algebra of multiple membrane theories. We begin with a description of M-theory branes and their intersections from the perspective of…

Lie bialgebra structures are reviewed and investigated in terms of the double Lie algebra, of Manin- and Gau{\ss}-decompositions. The standard R-matrix in a Manin decomposition then gives rise to several Poisson structures on the…

Let $G \to P \to M$ be a flat principal bundle over a closed and oriented manifold $M$ of dimension $m=2d$. We construct a map of Lie algebras $\Psi: \H_{2\ast} (L M) \to {\o}(\Mc)$, where $\H_{2\ast} (LM)$ is the even dimensional part of…

These are notes for four lectures on higher structures in M-theory as presented at workshops at the Erwin Schroedinger Institute and Tohoku University. The first lecture gives an overview of systems of multiple M5-branes and introduces the…

An abundance of the Poisson-Lie symmetries of the WZNW models is uncovered. They give rise, via the Poisson-Lie $T$-duality, to a rich structure of the dual pairs of $D$-branes configurations in group manifolds. The $D$-branes are…

This thesis is based on two papers by the author and consists of two parts. We review the recent developments in the theory of multiple M2-branes and 3-algebras leading to multiple D2-brane theories. The inclusion of flux terms for the…

In this paper, first we show that there is a Hom-Lie algebra structure on the set of $(\sigma,\sigma)$-derivations of a commutative algebra. Then we construct dual representations of a representation of a Hom-Lie algebra. We introduce the…

In this paper, we define (cohomologically) 1-shifted Manin triples and 1-shifted Lie bialgebras, and study their properties. We derive many results that are parallel to those found in ordinary Lie bialgebras, including the double…

In this paper, we study the structure of 3-Lie algebras with involutive derivations. We prove that if $A$ is an $m$-dimensional 3-Lie algebra with an involutive derivation $D$, then there exists a compatible 3-pre-Lie algebra $(A, \{ , , ,…

We propose a new Lagrangian describing N=4 superconformal field theory in three dimensions. This theory is believed to describe interacting field theory on the worldvolume of a M2-brane on an orbifold, and is obtained as a Z_2-quotient of…

M2-branes can blow up into BPS funnels that end on calibrated intersections of M5-branes. In this quick note, we make the observation that the constraints required for the consistency of these solutions are automatic in…

We give explicit formulae for differential graded Lie algebra (DGLA) models of 3-cells. In particular, for a cube and an $n$-faceted banana-shaped 3-cell with two vertices, $n$ edges each joining those two vertices and $n$ bi-gon 2-cells,…

In this paper, we first introduce the notion of a 3-Hom-Lie bialgebra and prove that it is equivalent to a Manin triple of 3-Hom-Lie algebras. Also, we study the $\mathcal{O}$-operator and construct solutions of the 3-Lie classical…

We construct two dimensional gauge theories with $N= (4,4)$ supersymmetry from branes of type IIA string theory. Quantum effects in the two dimensional gauge theory are analyzed by embedding the IIA brane construction into M-theory. We find…

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 propose an action for non-relativistic M2-brane in eleven dimensional M-brane Newton-Cartan background. We find its Hamiltonian formulation and we focus on its dimensional reduction to ten dimensions that leads to non-relativistic…
