Consistent dimensional reduction of five-dimensional off-shell supergravity
نویسندگان
چکیده
There are some points to notice in the dimensional reduction of the offshell supergravity. We discuss a consistent way of the dimensional reduction of five-dimensional off-shell supergravity compactified on S/Z2. There are two approaches to the four-dimensional effective action, which are complementary to each other. Their essential difference is the treatment of the compensator and the radion superfields. We explain these approaches in detail and examine their consistency. Comments on the related works are also provided. e-mail address:[email protected] e-mail address:[email protected]

Roles of Z 2 - odd N = 1 multiplets in off - shell dimensional reduction of 5 D supergravity
We discuss the dimensional reduction of five-dimensional supergravity compactified on S/Z2 keeping the N = 1 off-shell structure. Especially we clarify the roles of the Z2-odd N = 1 multiplets in such an off-shell dimensional reduction. Their equations of motion provide constraints on the Z2-even multiplets and extract the zero modes from the latter. The procedure can be applied to wide range o...

متن کاملOff-shell dimensional reduction of 5D orbifold supergravity
We present a systematic way for deriving a four-dimensional (4D) effective action of the fivedimensional (5D) orbifold supergravity respecting the N = 1 off-shell structure. As an illustrating example, we derive a 4D effective theory of the 5D gauged supergravity with a universal hypermultiplet and generic gaugings, which includes the 5D heterotic M-theory and the supersymmetric Randall-Sundrum...

We obtain new results for consistent braneworld Kaluza-Klein reductions, showing how we can derive four-dimensional N = 2 gauged supergravity " localised on the AdS 4 brane " as an exact embedding in five-dimensional N = 4 gauged supergravity. Similarly, we obtain five-dimensional N = 2 gauged supergravity localised on an AdS 5 brane as a consistent Kaluza-Klein reduction from six-dimensional N...
