AB  - Generalizing the The Membrane at the End of the Universe, a 1987 paper Supersingletons by Blencowe and the author conjectured the existence of BPS p-brane configurations (p = 2, 3, 4, 5) and corresponding CFTs on the boundary of anti-de Sitter space with symmetries appearing in Nahm’s classification of superconformal algebras: OSp(N|4) N = 8, 4, 2, 1; SU(2, 2|N) N = 4, 2, 1; F 2(4); OSp(8∗|N), N = 4, 2. This correctly predicted the D3-brane with SU(2, 2|4) on AdS5 × S5 and the M5-brane with OSp(8∗|4) on AdS7 × S4, in addition to the known M2-brane with OSp(8|4) on AdS4 × S7. However, finding non-singular AdS solutions matching the other symmetries was less straightforward. Here we perform a literature search and confirm that all of the empty slots have now been filled, thanks to a number of extra ingredients including warped products and massive Type IIA. Orbifolds, orientifolds and S-folds also play a part providing examples not predicted: SU(2, 2|3), OSp(3|4), OSp(5|4) and OSp(6|4) but not OSp(7|4). We also examine the status of p = (0, 1) configurations.

Note to staff:  Adding new publications to a research group

  1. Log in to Symplectic.
  2. Click on Menu > Create Links
  3. Choose what you want to create links between – in this case ‘Publications’ and ‘Organisational structures’.
  4. Choose the organisational structure (research group) into which you want to link the publications and check the box next to it.
  5. Now check the box of any publication you want to add to that group. You can use the filters to find what you want and select multiple publications if necessary. 
  6. Scroll to the bottom and click the blue ‘Create new link’ button to link them.
  7. The publications will be added to the group, and will be displayed on the group publications feed within 24 hours (it is not immediate).

Any problems, talk to Tim Evans or the Faculty Web Team.
