Description
In this talk I will give a review of developments over the past few years in the study of Brane dynamics in M- theory. I will begin with a brief discussion of what M- theory is, and what Branes it contains. I will then examine the various attempts to use gauge theories to probe the low energy dynamics of M2 branes, analogous to the use of SU(N) Super Yang Mills to describe interacting D Branes in String theory. I will conclude by outlining the much more challenging problem of interacting M5 Branes- the (2,0) theory
