Higher Symmetries in Twisted Eleven-Dimensional Supergravity [PDF]
In supersymmetric theories, protected quantities can be reorganized into holomorphic-topological theories by twisting. Recently, it was observed by Jonsson, Kim and Young that residual super-Poincaré symmetries in certain twisted theories can receive ...

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 ...

Higher-dimensional field theories from type II supergravity [PDF]
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 ...

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.

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 ...

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
