Ingredients Definition Examples For semisimple Lie algebra targets For discrete group targets For discrete 2-group targets For Lie 2-algebra targets For targets extending the super Poincare Lie algebra (such as the supergravity Lie 3-algebra, the supergravity Lie 6-algebra) Chern-Simons-supergravity for higher abelian targets for symplectic Lie n-algebroid targets for the -structure on the BRST complex of the closed string: topological AdS7/CFT6-sector By abelian Chern-Simons theory one means...
