Multiple Membranes in M-theory

J Bagger, N Lambert, S Mukhi, C Papageorgakis - Physics Reports, 2013 - Elsevier
We review developments in the theory of multiple, parallel membranes in M-theory. After
discussing the inherent difficulties with constructing a maximally supersymmetric lagrangian …

O Aharony, O Bergman, DL Jafferis… - Journal of High Energy …, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
We construct three dimensional Chern-Simons-matter theories with gauge groups U (N)× U
(N) and SU (N)× SU (N) which have explicit Script N= 6 superconformal symmetry. Using …

[PDF][PDF] S-duality of boundary conditions in N= 4 super Yang-Mills theory

D Gaiotto, E Witten - 2009 - projecteuclid.org
By analyzing brane configurations in detail, and extracting general lessons, we develop
methods for analyzing S-duality of supersymmetric boundary conditions in N= 4 super Yang …

Fractional M2-branes

O Aharony, O Bergman, DL Jafferis - Journal of High Energy …, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
We consider two generalizations of the Script N= 6 superconformal Chern-Simons-matter
theories with gauge group U (N)× U (N). The first generalization is to Script N= 6 …

Fivebranes and 4-manifolds

A Gadde, S Gukov, P Putrov - Arbeitstagung Bonn 2013: In Memory of …, 2016 - Springer
We describe rules for building 2d theories labeled by 4-manifolds. Using the proposed
dictionary between building blocks of 4-manifolds and 2d 𝒩=(0, 2) N=(0, 2) theories, we …

TASI lectures on solitons

D Tong - arXiv preprint hep-th/0509216, 2005 - arxiv.org
These lectures cover aspects of solitons with focus on applications to the quantum dynamics
of supersymmetric gauge theories and string theory. The lectures consist of four sections …

On mirror symmetry in three dimensional Abelian gauge theories

A Kapustin, MJ Strassler - Journal of High Energy Physics, 1999 - iopscience.iop.org
We present an identity relating the partition function of N= 4 supersymmetric QED to that of
its dual under mirror symmetry. The identity is a generalized Fourier transform. Many known …

Monopole operators and mirror symmetry in three dimensions

V Borokhov, A Kapustin, X Wu - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2003 - iopscience.iop.org
We study vortex-creating, or monopole, operators in 3d CFTs which are the infrared limit of
N= 2 and N= 4 supersymmetric QEDs in three dimensions. Using large-N f expansion, we …

5-brane webs, symmetry enhancement, and duality in 5d supersymmetric gauge theory
