S-brane solutions in gauged and ungauged supergravities
We construct time dependent S-brane solutions in gauged and ungauged supergravities in various dimensions. The supergravity solutions we find are all special cases of solutions in gauged supergravities with symmetric potentials. We discuss some properties of these solutions and their relation to topological black holes in anti-de Sitter spaces. email: [email protected] email: [email protected]...
متن کاملGauged Supergravities from Spherical Reductions
Gauged Supergravities from Spherical Reductions. (December 2001) Tuan Anh Tran, B.S., Hanoi University, Vietnam Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Christopher N. Pope This dissertation is devoted to deriving the bosonic sectors of certain gauged supergravities in various dimensions from reducing eleven-dimensional supergravity, type IIA and type IIB supergravities in ten dimensions on certain sph...
متن کاملGauged N=4 Supergravities
We present the complete gauged N = 4 (half-maximal) supergravities in four and five spacetime dimensions coupled to an arbitrary number of vector mul-tiplets. The gaugings are parameterized by a set of appropriately constrained constant tensors, which transform covariantly under the global symmetry groups SL(2) × SO(6, n) and SO(1, 1) × SO(5, n), respectively. In terms of these tensors the univ...
متن کاملGauged Supergravities and Supernumerary Supersymmetry
Purely gravitational pp-waves in AdS backgrounds are described by the generalised Kaig-orodov metrics, and they generically preserve 1 4 of the maximum supersymmetry allowed by the AdS spacetimes. We obtain 1 2 supersymmetric purely-gravitional pp-wave solutions, in which the Kaigorodov component is set to zero. We construct pp-waves in AdS gauged su-pergravities supported by a vector field. We...
متن کاملM-theory and Gauged Supergravities
We present a pedagogical discussion of the emergence of gauged supergravities from Mtheory. First, a review of maximal supergravity and its global symmetries and supersymmetric solutions is given. Next, different procedures of dimensional reduction are explained: reductions over a torus, a group manifold and a coset manifold and reductions with a twist. Emphasis is placed on the consistency of ...
