The M Theory Five-Brane and the Heterotic String
arXiv:hep-th/9705092 · doi:10.1007/BFb0105232
Abstract
Brane actions with chiral bosons present special challenges. Recent progress in the description of the two main examples -- the M theory five-brane and the heterotic string -- is described. Also, double dimensional reduction of the M theory five-brane on K3 is shown to give the heterotic string.
