We study the most general supersymmetric warped M-theory backgrounds with non-trivial G-flux of the type Ê 1,2 × M 8 and AdS 3 × M 8 . We give a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for preservation of supersymmetry which are phrased in terms of G-structures and their intrinsic torsion. These equations may be interpreted as calibration conditions for a static "dyonic" M-brane, that is, an M5-brane with self-dual three-form turned on. When the electric flux is turned off we obtain the supersymmetry conditions and non-linear PDEs describing M5-branes wrapped on associative and special Lagrangian three-cycles in manifolds with G 2 and SU(3) structures, respectively. As an illustration of our formalism, we recover the 1/2-BPS dyonic M-brane, and also construct some new examples.

“…Furthermore, by considering a wave propagating along a generic cycle of a 2-torus [22] one obtains D = 11 solutions that reduce to the D = 10(q 1 , q 2 ) string solutions of [23]. There are also non-threshold BPS bound states in eleven dimensions, like the one given in [25]. It would be interesting to see how they fit in the general classification scheme.…”

We give a classification of all multiple intersections of D-branes in ten dimensions and M-branes in eleven dimensions that correspond to threshold BPS bound states. The residual supersymmetry of these composite branes is determined. By dimensional reduction composite p-branes in lower dimensions can be constructed. We emphasize in dimensions D ≥ 2 those solutions which involve a single scalar and depend on a single harmonic function. For these extremal branes we obtain the strength of the coupling between the scalar and the gauge field. In particular, we give a D-brane and M-brane interpretation of extreme p-branes in two, three and four dimensions.

“…Apart from the the RR 3-form potentials, this system is the OD4 theory studied in [2] and from the supergravity point of view in [5]. NS5-branes with one type of RR field on their worldvolume have been also considered in [14] and from the supergravity point of view in [15,16,17].…”

In the first part of this letter, we analyse the supergravity dual descriptions of six-dimensional field theories realized on the worldvolume of (p, q) fivebranes (OD5 theory). We show that in order for the low-energy gauge theory description to be valid the θ parameter must be rational. Irrational values of θ require a strongly coupled string description of the system at low-energy. We discuss the phase structure and deduce some properties of these theories. In the second part we construct and study the supergravity description of NS5-branes with two electric RR field, which provides a dual description of six-dimensional theories with several light open D-brane excitations.
