Metric 3-Lie algebras for unitary Bagger-Lambert theories
Paul de Medeiros, José Figueroa-O'Farrill, Elena Méndez-Escobar +1
We prove a structure theorem for finite-dimensional indefinite-signature metric 3-Lie algebras admitting a maximally isotropic centre. This algebraic condition indicates that all t…

On the Lie-algebraic origin of metric 3-algebras
Paul de Medeiros, José Figueroa-O'Farrill, Elena Méndez-Escobar +1
Since the pioneering work of Bagger-Lambert and Gustavsson, there has been a proliferation of three-dimensional superconformal Chern-Simons theories whose main ingredient is a metr…
