In this work, we extend a theory which describes a linearly self-dual exact 3-form field in six dimensional spacetime within the formalism of arXiv:1511.08220 and arXiv:1903.12196 to an action which fully describes an M5-brane in the eleven-dimensional supergravity background. The action we obtain has all the required symmetries including kappa-symmetry. Although the derivation of the action and the proof the symmetries do not require one to express the action explicitly in terms of the original field contents, we also give an initial attempt to give this expression.

  1. Coupling Self-Dual p-Form Gauge Fields to Self-Dual Branes

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Self-dual p-form gauge fields in d=4k+2 dimensions can be coupled to self-dual branes via Dirac branes, with the action invariant under Dirac brane deformations subject to the Dirac veto.
