A Path Integral for the Chiral-Form Partition Function
Enrico Andriolo, Neil Lambert, Tristan Orchard +1
Starting from the recent action proposed by Sen [1,2], we evaluate the partition function of the compact chiral boson on a two-dimensional torus using a path-integral formulation.…
Geometrical Aspects of An Abelian (2,0) Action
E. Andriolo, N. Lambert, C. Papageorgakis
We explore various geometrical aspects of an action for six-dimensional chiral 2-forms based on the formalism of 1903.12196. We elucidate the coupling to general backgrounds and co…
Instanton Operators in Five-Dimensional Gauge Theories
N. Lambert, C. Papageorgakis, M. Schmidt-Sommerfeld
We discuss instanton operators in five-dimensional gauge theories. These are defined as disorder operators which create a non-vanishing second Chern class on a four-sphere surround…
Deconstructing (2,0) Proposals
N. Lambert, C. Papageorgakis, M. Schmidt-Sommerfeld
We examine the relationships between three proposals for the six-dimensional (2,0) theory: the DLCQ of hep-th/9707079, hep-th/9712117, the deconstruction prescription of hep-th/011…
Multiple Membranes in M-theory
Jonathan Bagger, Neil Lambert, Sunil Mukhi +1
We review developments in the theory of multiple, parallel membranes in M-theory. After discussing the inherent difficulties pertaining to a maximally supersymmetric lagrangian for…
5D Yang-Mills instantons from ABJM Monopoles
N. Lambert, H. Nastase, C. Papageorgakis
In the presence of a background supergravity flux, N M2-branes will expand via the Myers effect into M5-branes wrapped on a fuzzy three-sphere. In previous work the fluctuations of…
