BPS preons and higher spin theory in D=4, 6, 10
Igor A. Bandos, Jose A. de Azcarraga
We briefly review here the notion of BPS preons, the hypothetical constituents of M-theory, emphasizing its generalization to arbitrary dimensions D and its relation to higher spin…

On the absence of BPS preonic solutions in IIA and IIB supergravities
Igor A. Bandos, Jose A. de Azcarraga, Oscar Varela
We consider the present absence of 31 out of 32 supersymmetric solutions in supergravity i.e., of solutions describing BPS preons. A recent result indicates that (bosonic) BPS preo…
