Field Theory Supertubes

Abstract
Starting with intersecting M2-branes in M-theory, the IIA supertube can be found by compactification with a boost to the speed of light in the compact dimension. A similar procedure applied to Donaldson-Uhlenbeck-Yau instantons on $\bC^3$, viewed as intersecting membranes of 7D supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory, yields (for finite boost) a new set of 1/4 BPS equations for 6D SYM-Higgs theory, and (for infinite boost) a generalization of the dyonic instanton equations of 5D SYM-Higgs theory, solutions of which are interpreted as Yang-Mills supertubes and realized as configurations of IIB string theory.
