Brane current algebras and generalised geometry from QP manifolds
Alex S. Arvanitakis
We construct a Poisson algebra of brane currents from a QP-manifold (alias symplectic -algebroid), and show their Poisson brackets take a universal geometric form. This g…
Homotopy Transfer and Effective Field Theory I: Tree-level
Alex S. Arvanitakis, Olaf Hohm, Chris Hull +1
We use the dictionary between general field theories and strongly homotopy algebras to provide an algebraic formulation of the procedure of integrating out of degrees of freedom in…
Generalising Courant algebroids to M-theory
Alex S. Arvanitakis
We introduce M-theoretic generalisations of the notion of (exact) Courant algebroid, and summarise their connections to generalised geometry, U-duality, and the physics of strings,…
The -algebra of the S-matrix
Alex S. Arvanitakis
We point out that the one-particle-irreducible vacuum correlation functions of a QFT are the structure constants of an -algebra, whose Jacobi identities hold whenever the…
Brane Wess-Zumino terms from AKSZ and exceptional generalised geometry as an -algebroid
Alex S. Arvanitakis
We reinterpret the generalised Lie derivative of M-theory generalised geometry as hamiltonian flow on a graded symplectic supermanifold. The hamiltonian acts as the nilpotent…
The Exceptional Sigma Model
Alex S. Arvanitakis, Chris D. A. Blair
We detail the construction of the exceptional sigma model, which describes a string propagating in the "extended spacetime" of exceptional field theory. This is to U-duality as the…
