Solitons in the Horava-Witten supergravity
E. Dudas, J. Mourad
We study classical BPS five-brane solutions in the Horava-Witten supergravity. The presence of the eleventh dimension add a new feature, namely the dependence of the solution on th…
Anomalies of the SO(32) five-brane and their cancellation
J. Mourad
The anomaly due to the chiral fermions on the world-volume of the SO(32) five-brane is calculated. It is shown that this contribution has the correct structure for it to be cancell…
Open Supermembranes Coupled to M-Theory Five-Branes
Ph. Brax, J. Mourad
We consider open supermembranes in eleven dimensions in the presence of closed M-Theory five-branes. It has been shown that, in a flat space-time, the world-volume action is kappa…
Open supermembranes in eleven dimensions
Ph. Brax, J. Mourad
We consider open supermembranes in an eleven dimensional background. We show that, in a flat space-time, the world-volume action is kappa-symmetric and has global space-time supers…
On the strongly coupled heterotic string
E. Dudas, J. Mourad
We analyze in detail the anomaly cancellation conditions for the strongly coupled heterotic string introduced by Horava and Witten and find new features compared t…
