Twisted Cohomotopy implies twisted String structure on M5-branes

Published 25 Feb 2020 in hep-th, math-ph, math.AT, math.DG, and math.MP | (2002.11093v2)

Abstract: We show that charge-quantization of the M-theory C-field in J-twisted Cohomotopy implies emergence of a higher Sp(1)-gauge field on single heterotic M5-branes, which exhibits worldvolume twisted String structure.
