BPS surface observables in six-dimensional (2,0) theory
Par Arvidsson
The supergroup OSp(8*|4), which is the superconformal group of (2,0) theory in six dimensions, is broken to the subgroup OSp(4|2)xOSp(4|2) by demanding the invariance of a certain…
The N=8 Supergravity Hamiltonian as a Quadratic Form
Sudarshan Ananth, Lars Brink, Rainer Heise +1
We conjecture that the light-cone Hamiltonian of N=8 Supergravity can be expressed as a quadratic form. We explain why this rewriting is unique to maximally supersymmetric theories…
Wilson-'t Hooft operators and the theta angle
Mans Henningson
We consider -dimensional Yang-Mills theory on a space-time with a compact spatial direction, and prove the following result: Under a continuous increase…
A Note on Topological M5-branes and String-Fivebrane Duality
Ling Bao, Martin Cederwall, Bengt E. W. Nilsson
We derive the stability conditions for the M5-brane in topological M-theory using kappa-symmetry. The non-linearly self-dual 3-form on the world-volume is necessarily non-vanishing…
Massless fermionic bound states and the gauge/gravity correspondence
Riccardo Argurio, Gabriele Ferretti, Christoffer Petersson
We study the equations of motion of fermions in type IIB supergravity in the context of the gauge/gravity correspondence. The main motivation is the search for normalizable fermion…
Covariant quantization of infinite spin particle models, and higher order gauge theories
Ludde Edgren, Robert Marnelius
Further properties of a recently proposed higher order infinite spin particle model are derived. Infinitely many classically equivalent but different Hamiltonian formulations are s…
