Bootstrapping M-theory orbifolds

Journal of High Energy Physics
We analyze correlation functions of SU(k) × SU(2) F flavor currents in a family of three-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 superconformal field theories, combining analytic bootstrap methods with input from supersymmetric localization.

M Theory and P-Branes [PDF]

Physics Letters B, 1995
Ten dimensional type IIA and IIB theories with p-branes are compactified to 8-dimensions. It is shown that resulting branes can be classified according to the representations of $\bf {SL(3,Z) \times SL(2,Z)}$.

Decoupling Limits in M-Theory [PDF]

Nuclear Physics B, 1998
Limits of a system of N Dn-branes in which the bulk and string degrees of freedom decouple to leave a `matter' theory are investigated and, for n>4, either give a free theory or require taking $N \to \infty$.

From Superstrings to M Theory [PDF]

Physics Reports, 1998
In this talk I will survey some of the basic facts about superstring theories in 10 dimensions and the dualities that relate them to M theory in 11 dimensions.

Orientifold Points in M Theory [PDF]

Journal of High Energy Physics, 1999
We identify the lift to M theory of the four types of orientifold points, and show that they involve a chiral fermion on an orbifold fixed circle.

The Power of M Theory [PDF]

Physics Letters B, 1995
A proposed duality between type IIB superstring theory on R^9 X S^1 and a conjectured 11D fundamental theory (``M theory'') on R^9 X T^2 is investigated.

Membranes for Topological M-Theory [PDF]

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2005
We formulate a theory of topological membranes on manifolds with G_2 holonomy. The BRST charges of the theories are the superspace Killing vectors (the generators of global supersymmetry) on the background with reduced holonomy G_2.

M-Theory of Matrix Models [PDF]

Theoretical and Mathematical Physics, 2006
Small M-theories unify various models of a given family in the same way as the M-theory unifies a variety of superstring models. We consider this idea in application to the family of eigenvalue matrix models: their M-theory unifies various branches of ...

Symmetric M-theory backgrounds [PDF]

Open Physics, 2013
AbstractWe classify symmetric backgrounds of eleven-dimensional supergravity up to local isometry. In other words, we classify triples (M, g, F), where (M,g) is an eleven-dimensional lorentzian locally symmetric space and F is an invariant 4-form, satisfying the equations of motion of eleven-dimensional supergravity. The possible (M,g) are given either
