Twisted Cohomotopy implies twisted String structure on M5-branes
arXiv:2002.11093 · doi:10.1063/5.0037786
Abstract
We show that charge-quantization of the M-theory C-field in J-twisted Cohomotopy implies emergence of a higher Sp(1)-gauge field on single heterotic M5-branes, which exhibits worldvolume twisted String structure.
