Eleven Dimensions from the Massive D-2-brane | Yolanda Lozano
; | Date: |
1 Jul 1997 | Journal: | Phys.Lett. B414 (1997) 52-57 | Subject: | hep-th | Affiliation: | Univ. of Utrecht | Abstract: | We find an eleven dimensional description of the D-2-brane of the massive type IIA theory as a first step towards an understanding of this theory in eleven dimensions. By means of a world-volume IIA/M theory duality transformation we show that the massive D-2-brane is equivalent to the dimensional reduction of the eleven dimensional membrane coupled to an auxiliary vector field. The role of this vector field is to preserve the invariance under massive gauge transformations in the world-volume and has non-trivial dynamics, governed by a Chern-Simons term proportional to $1/m$. | Source: | arXiv, hep-th/9707011 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
