DESCRIPTION:Supergravity and branes: Lecture IV\nIn this course I will dis
 cuss the different branes in string theory and M-theory from the supergrav
 ity point of view. The course will start with a simple introduction into s
 upersymmetry (Lecture 1) followed by an overview of the different supergra
 vity theories that are relevant to the low-energy description of string/M-
 theory (Lecture 2). In Lecture 3 the existence of p-branes\, i.e. extended
  objects with p spatial extensions\, in M-theory will be discussed via the
  central charges that occur in the supersymmetry algebra. Branes of Type I
 IA and IIB string theory will be discussed. Finally\, in the last lecture 
 we will discuss the different dualities of string/M-theory.\n\nhttps://ind
