Field Theory Supertubes
Paul K. Townsend
Starting with intersecting M2-branes in M-theory, the IIA supertube can be found by compactification with a boost to the speed of light in the compact dimension. A similar procedur…

String and M-theory Deformations of Manifolds with Special Holonomy
H. Lu, C. N. Pope, K. S. Stelle +1
The R^4-type corrections to ten and eleven dimensional supergravity required by string and M-theory imply corrections to supersymmetric supergravity compactifications on manifolds…

Cosmology as Geodesic Motion
Paul K. Townsend, Mattias N. R. Wohlfarth
For gravity coupled to N scalar fields with arbitrary potential V, it is shown that all flat (homogeneous and isotropic) cosmologies correspond to geodesics in an (N+1)-dimensional…
