Abstract

We classify canonical metric 3-algebra structures on matrix algebras and find novel three-dimensional conformally invariant actions in N = 4 projective super-space based on them. These can be viewed as Chern-Simons theories with special matter content and couplings. We explore the relations of these actions with the N = 2 actions based on generalized 3-Lie algebras found earlier and relate them to the original Bagger-Lambert-Gustavsson action.
