The Bagger-Lambert model and Type IIA string theory

Abstract

We conjecture the existence of a `compactified' version of Fukaya's homology for symplectic manifolds, which carries a canonical 2-Gerstenhaber algebra structure. This may help to understand the 2-Lie algebra structure involved in models for interacting D-branes.
