Anomalous couplings in M-theory and string theory

Abstract:
We explore how various anomaly-cancelling terms in M-theory and string theory transform non-trivially into each other under duality. Specifically, we study the phenomenon in which bulk terms in M-theory get mapped to brane worldvolume terms in string theory. The key mathematical ingredient is G-index theory.
