abstract

  • The equations of motion of the super five-brane in D = 11 dimensions are derived using the formalism of superembeddings. The equations describe highly nonlinear self-interactions of a tensor multiplet in the six dimensional worlsurface, and they have manifest worldsurface local supersymmetry. The geometry of the target space corresponds to D = 11 supergravity.
