Quantization of p-branes, D-p-branes and M-branes [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 1998 Killing spinors of space-time BPS configurations play an important role in quantization of theories with the fermionic worldvolume local symmetry. We show here how it works for the GS superstring, BST supermembrane and M-5-brane. We show that the non-linear generalization of the (2,0) d=6 tensor supermultiplet action is the M-5-brane action in a ...

Nuclear Physics B, 2015 We study a local description of composite five-branes of codimension two. The formulation is constructed by virtue of SL(2,Z)×SL(2,Z) monodromy associated with two-torus.

Wrapped NS5-branes, consistent truncations and Inönü-Wigner contractions
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We construct consistent Kaluza-Klein truncations of type IIA supergravity on (i) Σ2 × S 3 and (ii) Σ3 × S 3, where Σ2 = S 2 /Γ, ℝ2 /Γ, or ℍ2 /Γ, and Σ3 = S 3 /Γ, ℝ3 /Γ, or ℍ3 /Γ, with Γ a discrete group of symmetries, corresponding to NS5-branes wrapped ...

Modern Physics Letters A, 1996 We investigate possible existence of duality symmetries which exchange the Kaluza–Klein modes with the wrapping modes of a BPS saturated p-brane on a torus. Assuming the validity of the conjectured U-duality symmetries of type-II and heterotic string theories and M-theory, we show that for a BPS saturated p-brane there is an SL (2, Z) symmetry that ...

The different faces of branes in double field theory
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We show how the Wess-Zumino terms of the different branes in string theory can be embedded within double field theory. Crucial ingredients in our construction are the identification of the correct brane charge tensors and the use of the double field ...

Gravitational lensing by p-branes [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B, 1996 The scattering of R-R gauge bosons off of Dirichlet p-branes is computed to leading order in the string coupling. The results are qualitatively similar to those found in the scattering of massless NS-NS bosons: all p-branes with p >= 0 exhibit stringy properties, in particular the Regge behavior. Both the R-R and NS-NS scattering amplitudes agree in

Five-brane actions in double field theory
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We construct an action for NSNS 5-branes which is manifestly covariant under O(d, d). This is done by doubling d of the spacetime coordinates which appear in the worldvolume action.

Physics Letters B, 1996 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 $\bf {SL(3,Z) \times SL(2,Z)}$. These p-branes can also be obtained by compactification of M theory on three torus and various wrappings of membrane and five brane of the ...

(p,q)-strings probing five-brane webs
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 In recent work, globally well-defined Type IIB supergravity solutions with geometry AdS 6 × S 2 warped over a Riemann surface Σ were constructed and conjectured to describe the near-horizon geometry of (p, q) five-brane webs in the conformal limit.
