Membrane/fivebrane duality in D=11 implies Type IIA string/Type IIA fivebrane duality in D=10, which in turn implies Type IIA string/heterotic string duality in D=6. To test the conjecture, we reproduce the corrections to the 3-form field equations of the D=10 Type IIA string (a mixture of tree-level and one-loop effects) starting from the Chern-Simons corrections to the 7-form Bianchi identities of the D=11 fivebrane (a purely tree-level effect). K3 compactification of the latter then yields the familiar gauge and Lorentz Chern-Simons corrections to 3-form Bianchi identities of the heterotic string. We note that the absence of a dilaton in the D=11 theory allows us to fix both the gravitational constant and the fivebrane tension in terms of the membrane tension. We also comment on an apparent conflict between fundamental and solitonic heterotic strings and on the puzzle of a fivebrane origin of S-duality.

Uniqueness of D=8 minimal supergravity with two vector multiplets
Under a duality symmetry assumption, minimal supergravity coupled to two vector multiplets in D=8 is uniquely fixed in the BPS sector by anomaly cancellation, uplifts, and gauge enhancement.

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

The emergence of inherently 9-dimensional one-loop effective action from T-duality
Derives inherently 9D one-loop effective couplings in type IIB from T-duality on reduced IIA terms at order alpha'^3, demonstrating S-duality invariance without tree-level or non-perturbative input and consistency wit...

Effective Action in M-Theory: $(DF)^4$ Superinvariants
A local supersymmetry analysis reduces the 24 independent (DF)^4 terms in the M-theory eight-derivative action to 10 free parameters, consistent with scattering amplitude results.

Ensembles in M-theory and Holography
The M2-brane partition function should be viewed as a grand canonical object in AdS4/ABJM holography, fixing the three-form source rather than the flux number N, which resolves puzzles about Airy shifts and one-loop e...
