چکیده
We consider supermembranes in the maximally supersymmetric plane wave geometry of the eleven dimensions and construct complete solutions of the continuum version of the 1/4 BPS equations. The supermembranes may have an arbitrary number of holes and arbitrary cross sectional shapes. In the matrix regularized version, we solve the matrix equations for several simple cases including fuzzy torus. In addition, we show that these solutions are trivially generalized to 1/8 and 1/16 BPS configuations.

Tachyon Condensation and Non-BPS D-branes in a Ramond-Ramond Plane Wave Background
We consider string theory in maximally supersymmetric type IIB plane wave background with constant five form Ramond-Ramond flux (RR plane wave). It is argued that there exists a universal sector of string configurations independent of the null coordinate x such that the space-time action evaluated at such a configuration is same in the RR plane wave and flat background. By naturally assuming it...
متن کاملDecoding the matrix: Coincident membranes on the plane wave
At the core of nonperturbative theories of quantum gravity lies the holographic encoding of bulk data in large matrices. At present this mapping is poorly understood. The plane wave matrix model provides a laboratory for isolating aspects of this problem in a controlled setting. At large boosts, configurations of concentric membranes become superselection sectors, whose exact spectra are known....
متن کاملSuperstrings and D-branes in A Plane Wave
We carefully analyze the supersymmetry algebra of closed strings and open strings in a type IIB plane wave background. We use eight component chiral spinors, SO(8) MajoranaWeyl spinors, in light-cone gauge to provide a useful basis of string field theory calculation in the plane wave. We consider the two classes of D-branes, D±-branes, and give a worldsheet derivation of conserved supercurrents...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Branes in PP Wave Background
We consider the matrix model associated with pp-wave background and construct supersymmetric branes. In addition to the spherical membrane preserving 16 supersymmetries, one may construct rotating elliptic membranes preserving 8 supersymmetries. The other branch describes rotating 1/8 BPS hyperbolic branes in general. When the angular momentum vanishes, the hyperbolic brane becomes 1/4 BPS pres...
متن کاملElectrified BPS Giants : BPS configurations on Giant Gravitons with Static Electric Field
We consider D3-brane action in the maximally supersymmetric type IIB planewave background. Upon fixing the light-cone gauge, we obtain the light-cone Hamiltonian which is manifestly supersymmetric. The 1/2 BPS solutions of this theory (solutions which preserve 16 supercharges) are either of the form of spherical three branes, the giant gravitons, or zero size point like branes. We then construc...
