Maximally supersymmetric G-backgrounds of IIB supergravity
We classify the geometry of all supersymmetric IIB backgrounds which admit the maximal number of G-invariant Killing spinors. For compact stability subgroups G = G2, SU(3) and SU(2), the spacetime is locally isometric to a product Xn × Y10−n with n = 3, 4, 6, where Xn is a maximally supersymmetric solution of a n-dimensional supergravity theory and Y10−n is a Riemannian manifold with holonomy G...
متن کاملQuantum Field Theory on Curved Backgrounds. II. Spacetime Symmetries
We study space-time symmetries in scalar quantum field theory on an arbitrary static space-time. We first consider Euclidean quantum field theory, and show that the isometry group is generated by one-parameter subgroups which have either selfadjoint or unitary quantizations. We then show that the self-adjoint semigroups thus constructed can be analytically continued to one-parameter unitary gro...
متن کاملGeometry of all supersymmetric four - dimensional N = 1 supergravity backgrounds
We solve the Killing spinor equations of N = 1 supergravity, with four supercharges, coupled to any number of vector and scalar multiplets in all cases. We find that backgrounds with N = 1 supersymmetry admit a null, integrable, Killing vector field. There are two classes of N = 2 backgrounds. The spacetime in the first class admits a parallel null vector field and so it is a pp-wave. The space...
متن کاملClassification of supersymmetric backgrounds of string theory
We review the recent progress made towards the classification of supersymmetric solutions in ten and eleven dimensions with emphasis on those of IIB supergravity. In particular, the spinorial geometry method is outlined and adapted to nearly maximally supersymmetric backgrounds. We then demonstrate its effectiveness by classifying the maximally supersymmetric IIB G-backgrounds and by showing th...
متن کاملSupersymmetric AdS Backgrounds in String and M-theory
We first present a short review of general supersymmetric compactifications in string and M-theory using the language of G-structures and intrinsic torsion. We then summarize recent work on the generic conditions for supersymmetric AdS5 backgrounds in M-theory and the construction of classes of new solutions. Turning to AdS5 compactifications in type IIB, we summarize the construction of an inf...
