The Superconformal Gaugings in Three Dimensions
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Olaf Hohm, Diederik Roest +2
We show how three-dimensional superconformal theories for any number N <= 8 of supersymmetries can be obtained by taking a conformal limit of the corresponding three-dimensional ga…
Multiple Membranes from Gauged Supergravity
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Mees de Roo, Olaf Hohm +1
Starting from gauged N=8 supergravity in three dimensions we construct actions for multiple membranes by taking the limit to global supersymmetry for different choices of the embed…
Multiple M2-branes and the Embedding Tensor
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Mees de Roo, Olaf Hohm
We show that the Bagger-Lambert theory of multiple M2-branes fits into the general construction of maximally supersymmetric gauge theories using the embedding tensor technique. We…
Higher-spin dynamics and Chern-Simons theories
Johan Engquist, Olaf Hohm
We review the construction of consistent higher-spin theories based on Chern-Simons actions. To this end we first introduce the required higher-spin algebras and discuss curvature…
