Consistent truncations to 3-dimensional supergravity [PDF]
We show how to construct consistent truncations of 10-/11-dimensional supergravity to 3-dimensional gauged supergravity, preserving various amounts of supersymmetry. We show, that as in higher dimensions, consistent truncations can be defined in terms of

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.

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

A codex on linearized Nordström supergravity in eleven and ten dimensional superspaces [PDF]
As the full off-shell theories of supergravity in the important dimensions of eleven and ten dimensions are currently unknown, we introduce a superfield formalism as a foundation and experimental laboratory to explore the possibility that the scalar ...

Four-Dimensional Higher-Derivative Supergravity and Spontaneous Supersymmetry Breaking [PDF]
We construct two classes of higher-derivative supergravity theories generalizing Einstein supergravity. We explore their dynamical content as well as their vacuum structure.
