Supersymmetry of RS bulk and brane
Eric Bergshoeff, Renata Kallosh, Antoine Van Proeyen
We review the construction of actions with supersymmetry on spaces with a domain wall. The latter objects act as sources inducing a jump in the gauge coupling constant. Despite the…
On the supersymmetric non-abelian Born-Infeld action
E. A. Bergshoeff, M. de Roo, A. Sevrin
We review an iterative construction of the supersymmetric non-abelian Born-Infeld action. We obtain the action through second order in the fieldstrength. Kappa-invariance fixes the…
Non-abelian Born-Infeld and kappa-symmetry
E. A. Bergshoeff, M. de Roo, A. Sevrin
We define an iterative procedure to obtain a non-abelian generalization of the Born-Infeld action. This construction is made possible by the use of the severe restrictions imposed…
Towards a supersymmetric non-abelian Born-Infeld theory
E. Bergshoeff, M. de Roo, A. Sevrin
We define an iterative procedure to obtain a non-abelian generalization of the Born-Infeld action. This construction is made possible by the use of the severe restrictions imposed…
Supersymmetry in Singular Spaces
Eric Bergshoeff, Renata Kallosh, Antoine Van Proeyen
We develop the concept of supersymmetry in singular spaces, apply it in an example for 3-branes in D=5 and comment on 8-branes in D=10. The new construction has an interpretation t…
A Noncommutative M-Theory Five-brane
E. Bergshoeff, D. S. Berman, J. P. van der Schaar +1
We investigate, in a certain decoupling limit, the effect of having a constant C-field on the M-theory five-brane using an open membrane probe. We define an open membrane metric fo…
T-duality and Actions for Non-BPS D-branes
E. A. Bergshoeff, M. de Roo, T. C. de Wit +2
We employ T-duality to restrict the tachyon dependence of effective actions for non-BPS D-branes. For the Born-Infeld part the criteria of T-duality and supersymmetry are satisfied…
On Domain-wall/QFT dualities in various dimensions
Eric Bergshoeff, Rein Halbersma
We investigate domain-wall/quantum field theory correspondences in various dimensions. We give particular emphasis to the special case of the quantum mechanics of 0--branes.
