有边界的膜

Membranes with a boundary

David S Berman, Daniel C Thompson

摘要:

我们研究了最近发展起来的多层膜理论。特别是,我们考虑开放的膜,即理论上定义的膜世界体积的边界。我们首先把注意力限制在理论的规范部分。我们从Chern-Simons项得到一个边界作用量。第二,我们考虑加入一定的边界条件耦合到物质的各种陈-西蒙斯理论。这些项确保了整个体积加上边界作用量具有正确的超对称量。对于ABJM模型,这种构造促使包含一个边界四次标量势。从我们的修改后的理论得到的边界动力学产生巴苏-哈维型方程描述膜结束的五膜。这项工作的最终目标是使用开放膜理论来阐明五膜理论。

英文摘要:

We investigate the recently developed theory of multiple membranes. In particular, we consider open membranes, i.e. the theory defined on a membrane world volume with a boundary. We first restrict our attention to the gauge sector of the theory. We obtain a boundary action from the Chern-Simons terms. Secondly, we consider the addition of certain boundary terms to various Chern-Simons theories coupled to matter. These terms ensure the full bulk plus boundary action has the correct amount of supersymmetry. For the ABJM model, this construction motivates the inclusion of a boundary quartic scalar potential. The boundary dynamics obtained from our modified theory produce Basu-Harvey type equations describing membranes ending on a fivebrane. The ultimate goal of this work is to throw light on the theory of fivebranes using the theory of open membranes.
