All AdS7 solutions of type II supergravity

F Apruzzi, M Fazzi, D Rosa, A Tomasiello - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2014 - Springer
A bstract In M-theory, the only AdS 7 supersymmetric solutions are AdS 7× S 4 and its
orbifolds. In this paper, we find and classify new supersymmetric solutions of the type AdS …

[HTML][HTML] Supersymmetry with non-geometric fluxes, or a β-twist in Generalized Geometry and Dirac operator

D Andriot, A Betz - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract We study ten-dimensional supersymmetric vacua with NSNS non-geometric fluxes,
in the framework of β-supergravity. We first provide expressions for the fermionic …

Non-Kähler SYZ mirror symmetry

SC Lau, LS Tseng, ST Yau - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2015 - Springer
We study SYZ mirror symmetry in the context of non-Kähler Calabi–Yau manifolds. In
particular, we study the six-dimensional Type II supersymmetric SU (3) systems with …

Timelike structures of ten-dimensional supersymmetry

A Legramandi, L Martucci, A Tomasiello - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 - Springer
A bstract In several contexts, supersymmetry can be reformulated in terms of calibrations,
namely forms whose integrals measure minimal energies. It has been conjectured that this …

Higher-dimensional field theories from type II supergravity

M Fazzi - arXiv preprint arXiv:1712.04447, 2017 - arxiv.org
In this thesis we give a pedagogical introduction to the construction of NS5-D6 (-O6)-D8 (-
O8) brane setups in massive type IIA string theory and the six-dimensional $(1, 0) $ SCFT's …

Mink4× S2 Solutions of 10 and 11 dimensional supergravity

A Legramandi, NT Macpherson - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 - Springer
A bstract We complete the classification of Mink 4 solutions preserving N= 2 supersymmetry
and SU (2) R-symmetry parameterised by a round S 2 factor. We consider …

M-theory Compactifications to Three Dimensions with M2-brane Potentials

C Condeescu, A Micu, E Palti - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2014 - Springer
A bstract We study a class of compactifications of M-theory to three dimensions that preserve
N= 2 supersymmetry and which have the defining feature that a probe space-time filling M2 …

Generalized geometry lectures on type II backgrounds

D Tsimpis - arXiv preprint arXiv:1606.08674, 2016 - arxiv.org
The first part of these notes is a self-contained introduction to generalized complex
geometry. It is intended as auser manual'for tools used in the study of supersymmetric …

On flux vacua, SU (n)-structures and generalised complex geometry

D Prins - arXiv preprint arXiv:1602.05415, 2016 - arxiv.org
Understanding supersymmetric flux vacua is essential in order to connect string theory to
observable physics. In this thesis, flux vacua are studied by making use of two mathematical …
