For odd p, the Bianchi identities obeyed by the field strengths of the (p+1)-forms receive Chern-Simons corrections which, in the case of the 5-brane, are consistent with an earlier conjecture based on string/5-brane duality.14 PagesHigh Energy Physics - TheoryThe Coupling of Yang-Mills to Extended Objectstext
