Lie bialgebras were introduced by Drinfeld in studying the solutions to the classical Yang-Baxter equation. The definition of a bialgebra in the sense of Drinfeld (D-bialgebra), related with any variety of algebras, was given by Zhelyabin.…

Any simple Lie superalgebras over the complex field can be constructed from some triple systems. Examples of Lie superalgebras $D(2,1;\alpha)$, G(3) and F(4) are given by utilizing a general construction method based upon $(-1,-1)$ balanced…

We show that the Bagger-Lambert-Gustavsson (BLG) theory with two pairs of negative norm generators is derived from the scaling limit of an orbifolded Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena (ABJM) theory. The BLG theory with many Lorentzian…

M2-branes couple to a 3-form potential, which suggests that their description involves a non-abelian 2-gerbe or, equivalently, a principal 3-bundle. We show that current M2-brane models fit this expectation: they can be reformulated as…

The main aim of this paper is to classify the distinct multiplicative Lie algebra structures (up to isomorphism) on a given group. We also see that for a given group $G$, every homomorphism from the non-abelian exterior square $G \wedge G$…

This paper explores the properties of multiplicative Lie algebra structures on a nilpotent group of class $2$. We also present a method for determining a multiplicative Lie algebra structure on a group that serves as an extension of one Lie…

We study Manin triples for a reductive Lie algebra, $\g$. First, we generalize results of E. Karolinsky, on the classification of Lagrangian subalgebras (cf. KAROLINSKY E., {\em A Classification of Poisson homogeneous spaces of a compact…

We study brane configurations corresponding to D-branes on complex three-dimensional orbifolds ${\bf C}^3/\Gamma$ with $\Gamma=\Delta(3n^2)$ and $\Delta(6n^2)$, nonabelian finite subgroups of SU(3). We first construct a brane configuration…

We construct a class of Lie 3-algebras with an arbitrary number of pairs of generators with Lorentzian signature metric. Some examples are given and corresponding BLG models are studied. We show that such a system in general describes a…

We construct two-dimensional N=(2,2) supersymmetric gauge theories with orthogonal and symplectic groups using branes and orientifold planes in Type IIA string theory. A number of puzzles regarding the construction, including the effect of…

We compute the large N limit of Wilson loop expectation values for a broad class of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories defined on a general class of background three-manifolds M_3, diffeomorphic to S^3. We find a simple closed formula which…

We consider how to take an orbifold reduction for the multiple M2-brane theory recently proposed by Bagger and Lambert, and discuss its relation to Chern-Simons theories. Starting from the infinite dimensional 3-algebra realized as the…

We review developments in the theory of multiple, parallel membranes in M-theory. After discussing the inherent difficulties pertaining to a maximally supersymmetric lagrangian formulation with the appropriate field content and symmetries,…

It is known that the M2-brane worldvolume superalgebra includes two p-form central charges that encode the M-theory intersections involving M2-branes. In this paper we show by explicit computation that the Bagger-Lambert Lagrangian realizes…

In this paper, first we introduce the notion of a twilled 3-Lie algebra, and construct an $L_\infty$-algebra, whose Maurer-Cartan elements give rise to new twilled 3-Lie algebras by twisting. In particular, we recover the Lie $3$-algebra…

Gel'fand-Dorfman algebras (GD algebras) give a natural construction of Lie conformal algebras and are in turn characterized by this construction. In this paper, we define the Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebra (GD bialgebras) and enrich the above…

We obtain the bosonic D-brane description of toroidally compactified non-trivial M2-branes with the unique property of having a purely discrete supersymmetric regularized spectrum with finite multiplicity. As a byproduct, we generalize the…

For non-simple laced Lie algebras, the $\text{B}_{N}$ and $\text{C}_{N}$ are Langlands dual to each other in mathematical. In this article, we give another Bethe/Gauge correspondence between 3d (or 2d) classical Lie group supersymmetry…
