Calibrated brane solutions of M -theory

Close studies of the solitonic solutions of D = 11 [special characters omitted] = 1 supergravity theory provide a deeper understanding of the elusive M-theory and constitute steps towards its final formulation. In this work, we propose the use of calibration techniques to find localized intersecting...
