Counting BPS states of the M5-brane

  • 1. Physique Theorique et Mathematique, Universite Libre de Bruxelles, Campus Plaine C.P. 231, 1050 Bruxelles (Belgium)

Description

An on-shell model for the supersymmetric index counting multiplicities of BPS states of the M5-brane theory is reviewed. In particular we explicitly study the tensionless Little String states appearing at intersections in a bound state of N 5-branes wrapped on a six-manifold with product topology M4 x T2.
