Recently an action based on Lie 3-algebras was proposed to describe M2-branes. We study the case of infinite dimensional Lie 3-algebras based on the Nambu-Poisson structure of three dimensional manifolds. We show that the model contains self-dual 2-form gauge fields in 6 dimensions, and the result may be interpreted as the M5-brane world-volume action.

  1. Tensionless limit of M5-brane and conformal symmetry of its bosonic body

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    The tensionless M5-brane has a complete action whose bosonic sector is invariant under 11D conformal symmetry and reduces to conformal chiral 2-form electrodynamics when transverse fluctuations vanish.
