| Abstract | |
In this paper, we will calculate the effective potential for a theory of multiple M2-branes. As the theory of multiple M2-branes can be described by a Chem Simons-matter theory, this will be done by calculating the Kahlerian effective potential for a Chem Simons-matter theory. This calculation will be performed in N = 1 superspace formalism. We will initially study an Abelian Chem Simons-matter theory, and then generalize those results to the full non-Abelian Chem Simons-matter theory. We will obtain explicit expressions for the superpropagators for this theory. These superpropagators will be used to calculate the one-loop effective potential. (C) 2015 The Authors.
