چکیده

We derive the couplings of the 3-form supermultiplet to the general supergravity-matter-Yang-Mills system. Based on the methods of superspace geometry, we identify component fields, establish their supergravity transformations and construct invariant component field actions. Two specific applications are adressed: the appearance of fundamental 3-forms in the context of strong-weak duality and the use of the 3-form supermultiplets to describe effective degrees of freedom relevant to the mechanism of gaugino condensation.

The complete N = 3 Kaluza Klein spectrum of 11 D supergravity on AdS

We derive the invariant operators of the zero-form, the one-form, the two-form and the spinor from which the mass spectrum of Kaluza Klein of eleven-dimensional supergravity on AdS4 × N010 can be derived by means of harmonic analysis. We calculate their eigenvalues for all representations of SU(3)× SO(3). We show that the information contained in these operators is sufficient to reconstruct the...

Dual Vector Multiplet Coupled to Dual N=1 Supergravity in 10d

We couple in superspace a 'dual' vector multiplet (C m 1 ···m 7 , λ α) to the dual version of N = 1 supergravity (e m a , ψ m α , M m 1 ···m 6 , χ α , Φ) in ten-dimensions. Our new 7-form field C has its 8-form field strength H dual to the 2-form field strength F of the conventional vector multiplet. We have found that the H-Bianchi identity must have the form N ∧ F , where N is the 7-form fiel...

Noncompact Gaugings , Chiral Reduction and Dual Sigma Models in Supergravity

We show that the half-maximal SU (2) gauged supergravity with topological mass term admits coupling of an arbitrary number of n vector multiplets. The chiral circle reduction of the ungauged theory in the dual 2-form formulation gives N = (1, 0) supergravity in 6D coupled to 3p scalars that parametrize the coset SO(p, 3)/SO(p) × SO(3), a dilaton and (p + 3) axions with p ≤ n. Demanding that R-s...

Supergravity Breaking in Three Dimensions

We study models of spontaneous N = 2 → N = 1 supergravity breaking in three space-time dimensions and discuss the topological Higgsand super-Higgs mechanism which generates the masses for the spin-3/2 gravitino multiplet. The resulting N = 1 spectrum and its effective action is analysed.
