Constraining Maximally Supersymmetric Membrane Actions

Gauntlett, Jerome P., Gutowski, Jan B.

Understand

We study the recent construction of maximally supersymmetric field theory Lagrangians in three spacetime dimensions that are based on algebras with a triple product.

  • Assuming that the algebra has a positive definite metric compatible with the triple product, we prove that the only non-trivial examples are either the well known case based on a four dimensional algebra or direct sums thereof.
