Massive Type IIA Theory on K 3 1

چکیده
In this paper we study K3 compactification of ten-dimensional massive type IIA theory with all possible Ramond-Ramond background fluxes turned on. The resulting six-dimensional theory is a new massive (gauged) supergravity with an action that is manifestly invariant under an O(4, 20)/O(4) × O(20) duality symmetry. We discover that this six-dimensional theory interpolates between vacua of ten-dimensional massive IIA supergravity and vacua of massless IIA supergravity with appropriate background fluxes turned on. This in turn suggests a new 11-dimensional interpretation for the massive type IIA theory.

متن کاملN = 2 Solutions of Massive Type Iia and Their Chern-simons Duals
We find explicit AdS4 solutions of massive type IIA with N = 2 supersymmetry obtained deforming with a Roman mass the type IIA supersymmetric reduction of the M theory background AdS4 ×M111. The family of solutions have SU(3) × SU(3) structure and isometry SU(3) × U(1)2. They are conjectured to be dual to three-dimensional N = 2 Chern-Simons theories with generic Chern-Simons couplings and gaug...
متن کاملDuality symmetric massive type II theories in D = 8 and D = 6 ∗
We study T 2 compactification of massive type IIA supergravity in presence of possible Ramond-Ramond (RR) background fluxes. The resulting theory in D = 8 is shown to possess full SL(2, R) × SL(2, R) T-duality symmetry similar to the massless case. It is shown that elements of duality symmetry interpolate between massive type IIA compactified on T 2 and ordinary type IIA compactified on T 2 wit...
متن کاملSupersymmetry of Massive D = 9 Supergravity
By applying generalized dimensional reduction on the type IIB supersymmetry variations, we derive the supersymmetry variations for the massive 9-dimensional supergravity. We use these variations and the ones for massive type IIA to derive the supersymmetry transformation of the gravitino for the proposed massive 11-dimensional supergravity. The prime example of massive supergravities must be ma...
