Abstract

We discuss an open supermembrane theory on the maximally supersymmetric pp-wave background in eleven dimensions. The boundary surfaces of an open supermembrane are studied by using the covariant supermembrane theory. In particular, we find the configurations of M5-branes and 9-branes preserving a half of supersymmetries at the origin.
