dc.descriptionMotivated by a physical interpretation of its correlation functions as membrane scattering amplitudes, we re-address whether the Lorentzian BLG theory can be quantized such that it preserves SO(8) superconformal symmetry. We find that this appears to be possible. While the model seems to adequately reproduce protected quantities such as chiral primary amplitudes and the four derivative effective action, we conclude that, as understood at present, it gives a relatively unpractical parametrization of the IR dynamics of M2-branes.
