AB - <jats:title> A <jats:sc>bstract</jats:sc> </jats:title> <jats:p> The supermembrane action is non-linear and a priori non-renormalizable. Still, some quantities in this theory may be free of log UV divergences and thus defined unambiguously. To explore this possibility we compute, in static gauge, the energy of an M2 brane wrapped on a 2-torus in flat 11d space to two loops in the inverse-tension expansion. The result is free of logarithmic divergences and thus well defined in the standard <jats:italic>ζ</jats:italic> -function regularization. The same should hold also at higher loop orders. For fermions periodic around both circles the quantum corrections cancel, consistent with the BPS nature of the wrapped M2 brane state. For fermions antiperiodic around one or both circles the energy is a non-trivial function of the radii <jats:italic>R</jats:italic> <jats:sub>10</jats:sub> and <jats:italic>R</jats:italic> <jats:sub>11</jats:sub> , given by infinite sums of modified Bessel functions. We also compute the 3-loop correction to the energy of the bosonic membrane on <jats:sup>2</jats:sup> × <jats:italic>S</jats:italic> <jats:sup>1</jats:sup> . In contrast to the string case, it contains, besides powers of the 1-loop <jats:italic>ζ</jats:italic> (3) coefficient, a new term proportional to <jats:italic>ζ</jats:italic> (9). Summing contributions of all-loop bubble graphs leads to a simple cubic

Note to staff:  Adding new publications to a research group

  1. Log in to Symplectic.
  2. Click on Menu > Create Links
  3. Choose what you want to create links between – in this case ‘Publications’ and ‘Organisational structures’.
  4. Choose the organisational structure (research group) into which you want to link the publications and check the box next to it.
  5. Now check the box of any publication you want to add to that group. You can use the filters to find what you want and select multiple publications if necessary. 
  6. Scroll to the bottom and click the blue ‘Create new link’ button to link them.
  7. The publications will be added to the group, and will be displayed on the group publications feed within 24 hours (it is not immediate).

Any problems, talk to Tim Evans or the Faculty Web Team.
