Donald Marolf
The talks presented in the string theory and supergravity session of the GR16 conference in Durban, South Africa are described below for the proceedings.
Branes, Charge and Intersections
Donald Marolf
This is a brief summary of lectures given at the Fourth Mexican School on Gravitation and Mathematical Physics. The lectures gave an introduction to branes in eleven-dimensional su…
Group Averaging and Refined Algebraic Quantization: Where are we now?
Donald Marolf
Refined Algebraic Quantization and Group Averaging are powerful methods for quantizing constrained systems. They give constructive algorithms for generating observables and the phy…
String/M-branes for Relativists
Donald Marolf
These notes present an introduction to branes in ten and eleven dimensional supergravity and string/M-theory which is geared to an audience of traditional relativists, especially g…
