Supersymmetry and Branes in M-theory Plane-waves
Nakwoo Kim, Jung-Tay Yee
TL;DR
This paper investigates brane configurations in M-theory plane-waves, examining their supersymmetry properties and connections to AdS backgrounds, revealing how certain branes transform under the Penrose limit and their realization as fuzzy spheres.
Contribution
It provides a detailed analysis of brane embeddings and supersymmetry in M-theory plane-waves, linking them to AdS branes and giant gravitons through the Penrose limit.
Findings
Longitudinal branes originate from AdS branes.
Giant gravitons become spherical fuzzy branes.
Connections established between plane-wave and AdS branes.
Abstract
We study brane embeddings in M-theory plane-waves and their supersymmetry. The relation with branes in AdS backgrounds via the Penrose limit is also explored. Longitudinal planar branes are originated from AdS branes while giant gravitons of AdS spaces become spherical branes which are realized as fuzzy spheres in the massive matrix theory.
