Description
We address a correction to A.Buchel and R.Monten's analysis of near-extremal membranes in M-theory. The original authors consider the holographic dual of a $2+1$ dimensional superconformal gauge theory with $U(1)_R \times U(1)_B$ global symmetry. We repeat their analysis of R-charged membranes and identify a mistake; the charge transport is now stable and only the alternative quantization results in axion condensation instabilities.
