Fluxbranes in string theory and M-theory

Michael Gupterle (Harvard)

Abstract

I will discuss some aspects of fluxbranes in string theory and M-theory. In particular the eleven dimensional Flux seven brane related to the Kaluza-Klein Melvin solution and its conjectured relation to OA string theory will be discussed. Furthermore generalized fluxbrane solutions in theories with higher rank form fields will be described.
