SL(2,Z) symmetries, Supermembranes and Symplectic Torus Bundles
We give the explicit formulation of the 11D supermembrane as a symplectic
torus bundle with non trivial monodromy and non vanishing Euler class. This
construction allows a classification of all supermembranes showing explicitly
the discrete SL(2,Z) symmetries associated to dualities. It hints as the origin
in M-theory of the gauging of the effective theories associated to string
theories.Comment: 13 pages, Late
