Aspects of Multiple Membranes
David S. Berman, Laura C. Tadrowski, Daniel C. Thompson
This paper examines various aspects of the recently proposed theory of coincident membranes by Bagger and Lambert. These include the properties of open membranes and the resulting…
Duality Symmetric Strings, Dilatons and O(d,d) Effective Actions
David S. Berman, Daniel C. Thompson
We calculate the background field equations for the T-duality symmetric string building on previous work by including the effect of the Dilaton up to two-loops. Inclusion of the Di…
M-Theory Brane Deformations
David S. Berman, Laura C. Tadrowski
Using the techniques developed by Lunin and Maldacena we calaculate the supergravity solutions of membranes and fivebranes in the presence of a background C field. All the distinct…
Background Field Equations for the Duality Symmetric String
David S. Berman, Neil B. Copland, Daniel C. Thompson
This paper describes the background field equations for strings in T-duality symmetric formalisms in which the dimension of target space is doubled and the sigma model supplemented…
Les Houches lectures on supersymmetric Gauge Theories
D. S. Berman, E. Rabinovici
We introduce simple and more advanced concepts that have played a key role in the development of supersymmetric systems. This is done by first describing various supersymmetric qua…
