Gauge field corrections to 11-dimensional supergravity via dimensional reduction [PDF]
Using the fact that eleven-dimensional supergravity yields type IIA supergravity under dimensional reduction on a circle, we determine higher-derivative terms of 11-dimensional supergravity including the $$ R^4 $$ R4 , $$ ({\partial {F_4}})^2 R^2 $$ (∂F4)

Consistent truncation of eleven-dimensional supergravity on S 8 × S 1 [PDF]
Eleven-dimensional supergravity on S 8 × S 1 is conjectured to be dual to the M-theory matrix model. We prove that the dynamics of a subset of fluctuations around this background is consistently described by D = 2 SO(9) gauged maximal supergravity.

Higher-derivative supergravity, AdS4 holography, and black holes [PDF]
We use conformal supergravity techniques to study four-derivative corrections in four-dimensional gauged supergravity. We show that the four-derivative Lagrangian for the propagating degrees of freedom of the N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 gravity multiplet is ...

Axionic symmetry gaugings in supergravities and their higher-dimensional origin [PDF]
We study the class of four-dimensional N=4 supergravities obtained by gauging the axionic shift and axionic rescaling symmetries. We formulate these theories using the machinery of embedding tensors, characterize the full gauge algebras and discuss several specific features of this family of gauged supergravities. We exhibit in particular a generalized

Rotating strings in six-dimensional higher-derivative supergravity [PDF]
We construct the first rotating string solution in 6-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet supergravity, carrying both electric and magnetic charges. By embedding the known rotating string solution of the 2-derivative theory into 6-dimensional off-shell ...

Higher-dimensional symmetry of AdS2×S2 correlators [PDF]
It was recently shown that IIB supergravity on AdS5×S5 enjoys 10d conformal symmetry and that superstring theory on this background can be described using a 10d scalar effective field theory.

Higher-dimensional field theories from type II supergravity
In this thesis we give a pedagogical introduction to the construction of NS5-D6(-O6)-D8(-O8) brane setups in massive type IIA string theory and the six-dimensional $(1,0)$ SCFT's they engineer. After describing how to introduce the various ingredients (and their interplay) in type IIA, we explain how to read off an effective linear quiver description ...

Bimetric, conformal supergravity and its superstring embedding
We discuss the connection between Weyl2 supergravity and superstrings and further discuss holography between 4-dimensional, N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 superconformal Weyl2 supergravity and N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 8, higher spin-four theory on AdS 5. The Weyl2
