AKSZ CONSTRUCTION OF TOPOLOGICAL OPEN p-BRANE ACTION AND NAMBU BRACKETS

Abstrakt

We review the AKSZ construction as applied to the topological open membranes and Poisson sigma models. We describe a generalization to open topological p-branes.

Also, we propose a related (not necessarily BV) Nambu-Poisson sigma model.
