Classification of BPS Objects in N = 6 Chern-Simons Matter Theory

Understand

We investigate BPS conditions preserving n/12 (n = 1,...,6) supersymmetries in the Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena (ABJM) model.

• The BPS equations are classified in terms of the number of preserved supercharges and remaining subgroups of the SU(4)_R symmetry.
• We study structures of a map between projection conditions for the supercharges in eleven dimensions and those in the ABJM model.
• The BPS configurations in the ABJM model can be interpreted as known BPS objects in eleven-dimensional Mtheory,such as intersecting M2, M5-branes, M-waves, KK-monopoles and M9-branes.
