On Asymmetric Orbifolds and the D=5 No-modulus Supergravity [PDF]
Phys.Lett. B523 (2001) 351-356, 2001 We examine whether any type II asymmetric orbifolds have the same massless spectrum as the dimensional reduction of D=5 simple supergravity, which, besides the eleven-dimensional supergravity, is the only known supergravity above four dimensions with no moduli.

N=2 Chiral Supergravity in (10 + 2)-Dimensions As Consistent Background for Super (2 + 2)-Brane [PDF]
Phys.Lett. B437 (1998) 303-314, 1997 We present a theory of N=2 chiral supergravity in (10+2)-dimensions. This formulation is similar to N=1 supergravity presented recently using null-vectors in 12D. In order to see the consistency of this theory, we perform a simple dimensional reduction to ten-dimensions, reproducing the type IIB chiral supergravity.

Extremal Black Holes in Supergravity and the Bekenstein-Hawking Entropy [PDF]
Entropy 4:65-127,2002, 2002 We review some results on the connection among supergravity central charges, BPS states and Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. In particular, N=2 supergravity in four dimensions is studied in detail. For higher N supergravities we just give an account of the general theory specializing the discussion to the N=8 case when one half of supersymmetry is preserved.

An Sl(3,R) multiplet of 8-dimensional type II supergravity theories and the gauged supergravity inside [PDF]
Nucl.Phys. B602 (2001) 329-345, 2000 The so-called ``massive 11-dimensional supergravity'' theory gives, for one Killing vector, Romans' massive 10-dimensional supergravity in 10 dimensions, for two Killing vectors an Sl(2,Z) multiplet of massive 9-dimensional supergravity theories that can be obtained by standard generalized dimensional reduction type IIB supergravity and has been shown ...

Local Symmetries in the AdS_7/CFT_6 Correspondence [PDF]
Mod.Phys.Lett. A14 (1999) 2709-2720, 1999 It is shown that local symmetry transformations of the maximal AdS supergravity in seven-dimensional anti de Sitter space induce those of the N=(2,0) conformal supergravity on the six-dimensional boundary at infinity. Boundary values of the AdS supergravity fields form a supermultiplet of the conformal supergravity.

On the supersymmetry invariance of flat supergravity with boundary [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 The supersymmetry invariance of flat supergravity (i.e., supergravity in the absence of any internal scale in the Lagrangian) in four dimensions on a manifold with non-trivial boundary is explored.

Generalized IIB supergravity from exceptional field theory [PDF]
, 2016 The background underlying the $\eta$-deformed $AdS_5\times S^5$ sigma-model is known to satisfy a generalization of the IIB supergravity equations. Their solutions are related by T-duality to solutions of type IIA supergravity with non-isometric linear dilaton.

Special Geometry and Space-time Signature [PDF]
, 2017 We construct N=2 four and five-dimensional supergravity theories coupled to vector multiplets in various space-time signatures (t,s), where t and s refer, respectively, to the number of time and spatial dimensions. The five-dimensional supergravity theories, t+s=5, are constructed by investigating the integrability conditions arising from Killing ...

Supergravity and the quest for a unified theory [PDF]
arXiv, 1994 A recollection of some theoretical developments that preceded and followed the first formulation of supergravity theory is presented. Special emphasis is placed on the impact of supergravity on the search for a unified theory of fundamental interactions.

Higher-derivative supergravity, AdS4 holography, and black holes [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 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\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage ...
