M2-brane dynamics in the classical limit of the BMN matrix model

We investigate the large-N limit of the BMN matrix model by analyzing the dynamics of ellipsoidal M2-branes that spin in the 11-dimensional maximally supersymmetric SO(3)×SO(6) plane-wave background. We identify finite-energy solutions by specifying the local minima of the corresponding energy funct...
