We review the E(8) model of the M-theory 3-form and its applications to anomaly cancellation, Gauss laws, quantization of Page charge, and the 5-brane partition function. We discuss the potentially problematic behavior of the model under parity.

Discussion (0). Continue with ORCID to comment.

  1. Airy functions from quantum M-theory

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    Relative equivariant localization of quantum M-theory reproduces the Airy partition functions of ABJM and toric Calabi-Yau M2-brane theories, up to prefactor and non-perturbative corrections.

  2. SymTFTs and Non-Invertible Symmetries of 6d (2,0) SCFTs of Type $D$ from M-theory

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The 7d SymTFT for 6d (2,0) D_N SCFTs is derived from M-theory on AdS7 × RP4, including the outer-automorphism Z2 sector, and is used to derive non-invertible symmetries and anomaly polynomials.

  3. Symmetry TFTs from String Theory

    hep-th 2021-12 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Constructs Symmetry TFTs for M-theory compactifications by reducing the topological sector of 11d supergravity on the boundary of X using differential cohomology, with applications to 7d SYM and 5d SCFTs confirmed via...

  4. Continuous symmetries and charge measurement of boundary operators in holography

    hep-th 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Continuous symmetry operators in holography are U-shaped hanging brane bound states (D5-KK in Type IIB, M5-KK in M-theory) whose worldvolume couplings reproduce the Gauss-law symmetry operators and measure charges of ...

  5. Anomaly-induced vanishing of brane partition functions

    hep-th 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Anomalies imply vanishing brane partition functions; this yields unified derivations of the Freed-Witten and M5 shifted-quantization conditions and new S-fold D3-brane constraints.

  6. (-1)-form symmetries from M-theory and SymTFTs

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A systematic M-theory construction of SymTFTs for discrete and continuous (-1)-form symmetries, with a new 4-group structure in 4d N=1 SYM from G2 manifolds.

  7. SymTFTs for $U(1)$ symmetries from descent

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Symmetry descent is extended from discrete to continuous U(1) higher-form symmetries, yielding SymTFTs that match the Antinucci-Benini and Brennan-Sun constructions.
