We review the structure and symmetry properties of the worldvolume action for the M-theory 5-brane and of its equations of motion.
We derive the dynamics of M-brane intersections from the worldvolume action of one brane in the background supergravity solution of another one. In this way we obtain an effective action for the self-dual string boundary of an M2-brane in…
This paper is devoted to the study of the dynamics of the Dp-branes, F-strings and M-branes in the background of the system of two stacks of fivebranes in type IIA, IIB and M theory that intersect on the line.
This paper studies various aspects of the world volume dynamics of the M-theory five-brane, including: non-BPS solutions and solution generating symmetries; the scattering properties of world volume solutions; and the equivalence with probe…
We discuss several mechanisms to cancel the anomalies of a 5-brane embedded in M-theory. Two of them work, provided we impose suitable conditions either on the 11-dimensional manifold of M-theory or on the 4-form field strength of M-theory.
We study fundamental string (F-string) dynamics near D5-brane in some limits. We find that when the angular momentum of the probe is proportional to string length (l_s) and square root of string coupling constant {g_s}, the F-string lies in…
Hamiltonian formulations of M-branes moving in curved backgrounds are given.
We formulate boundary conditions for an open membrane that ends on the fivebrane of {\cal M}-theory. We show that the dynamics of the eleven-dimensional fivebrane can be obtained from the quantization of a ``small membrane'' that is…
Some exact solutions to the classical matrix model equations that arise in the context of M(embrane) theory are given, and their topological nature is identified.
In this note we study M5-branes in the multiple membrane action which is recently proposed by Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena. We write down the N=6 supersymmetry transformation of the action and obtain 1/2 BPS equations and their…
By using the Dirac-Born-Infeld action we study the dynamics of Dp-brane propagating in the NS5-near horizon plane wave background. We study systematically D-brane embedding in this pp-wave background, and analyze the equations of motion for…
We develop the point of view that brane actions should be understood in the context of effective field theory, and that this is the correct way to treat classical as well as loop divergences. We illustrate this idea in a simple model. We…
The kappa symmetry of an open M2-brane ending on an M5-brane requires geometrical constraints on the embedding of the system in target superspace. These constraints lead to the M5-brane equations of motion, which we review both in…
Using a microscopic phase-space model of the membrane system, the boundary condition at a membrane is derived. According to the condition, the substance flow across the membrane is proportional to the difference of the substance…
In this PhD thesis the low energy effective actions for D-branes and the M5-brane are used to analyze the dynamics of brane probes moving in the geometry created by diverse supergravity backgrounds. It begins with an introduction to string…
By analysing supersymmetry transformations we derive new BPS equations for the D=11 fivebrane propagating in flat space that involve the world-volume three-form. The equations generalise those of 2,3,4 and 5 dimensional special Lagrangian…
We analyze classical theory of a membrane propagating in a singular background spacetime. The algebra of the first-class constraints of the system defines the membrane dynamics. A membrane winding uniformly around compact dimension of…
In this note we study the puzzle posed by two M5-branes intersecting on a string (or equivalently, a single M5-brane wrapping a holomorphic four-cycle in C^4). It has been known for a while that this system is different from all other…
In a recent paper, Ohta and Townsend studied the conditions which must be satisfied for a configuration of two intersecting M5-branes at angles to be supersymmetric. In this paper we extend this result to any number of M5-branes or any…
Supersymmetric configurations of non-orthogonally intersecting M-5-branes can be obtained by rotation of one of a pair of parallel M-5-branes. Examples preserving 1/4, 3/16 and 1/8 supersymmetry are reviewed.
