Membranes on Fivebranes

Abstract

By analysing supersymmetry transformations we derive new BPS equations for the D=11 fivebrane propagating in flat space that involve the world-volume three-form. The equations generalise those of 2,3,4 and 5 dimensional special Lagrangian submanifolds and are relevant for describing membranes ending on these submanifolds.
