Anomaly structure of supergravity and anomaly cancellation
We display the full anomaly structure of supergravity, including new contributions to the conformal anomaly. Our result has the super-Weyl and Kähler U(1) transformation properties that are required for implementation of the Green-Schwarz mechanism for anomaly cancellation. ∗This work was supported in part by the Director, Office of Science, Office of High Energy and Nuclear Physics, Division o...
متن کاملAnomaly Cancellation in Seven-Dimensional Supergravity with a Boundary
We construct a seven-dimensional brane world in a slice of AdS7, where the boundary matter content is fixed by the cancellation of anomalies. The seven-dimensional minimal N = 2 gauged supergravity is compactified on the orbifold S/Z2, and the supersymmetric bulk-boundary Lagrangian is consistently derived for boundary vector and hypermultipets up to fermionic bilinear terms. Anomaly cancellati...
متن کاملAnomaly Cancellation in Supergravity with Fayet-Iliopoulos Couplings
We review and clarify the cancellation conditions for gauge anomalies which occur when N = 1, D = 4 supergravity is coupled to a Kähler non-linear sigma-model with gauged isometries and Fayet-Iliopoulos couplings. For a flat sigma-model target space and vanishing Fayet-Iliopoulos couplings, consistency requires just the conventional anomaly cancellation conditions. A consistent model with non-v...
متن کاملAnomaly Mediation in Supergravity Theories
We consider the effects of anomalies on the supersymmetry-breaking parameters in supergravity theories. We construct a supersymmetric expression for the anomalyinduced terms in the 1PI effective action; we use this result to compute the complete one-loop formula for the anomaly-induced gaugino mass. The mass receives contributions from the super-Weyl, Kähler, and sigma-model anomalies of the su...
متن کاملAnomaly cancellation in K3 orientifolds
We study in detail the pattern of anomaly cancellation in D = 6 Type IIB ZN orientifolds, occurring through a generalized Green-Schwarz mechanism involving several RR antisymmetric tensors and scalars fields. The starting point is a direct string theory computation of the inflow of anomaly arising from magnetic interaction of D-branes, O-planes and fixed-points, which are encoded in topological...
