Abstract
I will present recent work on the physics of long-wavelength supersymmetric deformations of brane solutions in supergravity. We will see how familiar concepts from D-brane theory, like the Dirac-Born-Infeld action and the kappa-symmetry condition, arise directly from the supergravity equations and will discuss their implications on the SUGRA /DBI correspondence. As a concrete example, we will consider the case of M5 branes in eleven-dimensional supergravity.
