Born-Infeld Action and Chern-Simons Term from Kaluza-Klein Monopole in M-theory

Abstract

We investigate the zero modes of the Kaluza-Klein monopole in M-theory and show that the Born-Infeld action and the Chern-Simons term of a D6-brane are reproduced to quadratic order in the field strength of the U(1) field on the brane.
