The interest in membranes and higher dimensional extended geometrical objects was inspired by the great successes of the string and superstring, first in 1968-73 as a theory of hadrons and then since 1984 as a Theory of Everything - a unified theory of all interactions, including
quantum gravity. In particular, membranes, supermembranes and spinning membranes have been studied since 1985, and an unexpected connection with supergravity opened in 1988 some new prospects for a quantized theory. General theorems about higher dimensional p-branes or extendons were also derived. The subject is very promising, whether perhaps as a more comprehensive fundamental unification, or as a description of composite hadrons. |
