Special Conformal Symmetry of Worldvolume Actions
R. Kallosh, J. Kumar, A. Rajaraman
Kappa-symmetric worldvolume actions of the D3-, M5- and M2-branes can be coupled consistently to their near horizon bosonic geometry background. We study the gauge-fixed action in…
Review of Matrix Theory
Daniela Bigatti, Leonard Susskind
In this article we present a self contained review of the principles of Matrix Theory including the basics of light cone quantization, the formulation of 11 dimensional M-Theory in…
Transmission of Supersymmetry Breaking from a 4-Dimensional Boundary
Eugene A. Mirabelli, Michael E. Peskin
In the strong-coupling limit of the heterotic string theory constructed by Horava and Witten, an 11-dimensional supergravity theory is coupled to matter multiplets confined to 10-d…
A note on discrete light cone quantization
Daniela Bigatti, Leonard Susskind
In this brief note we would like to discuss, in a simple model system, the conditions under which the discrete light cone quantization framework should be trusted as an approximati…
Webs of (p,q) 5-branes, Five Dimensional Field Theories and Grid Diagrams
Ofer Aharony, Amihay Hanany, Barak Kol
We continue to study 5d N=1 supersymmetric field theories and their compactifications on a circle through brane configurations. We develop a model, which we call (p,q) Webs, which…
On 6d "Gauge" Theories with Irrational Theta Angle
Barak Kol
A recent proposal for 6d "gauge" theories with rational theta angle is discussed. These theories were constructed from n_C coinciding (p,q) 5-branes of IIB in the limit of vanishin…
