Extremal Black Holes in Supergravity and the Bekenstein-Hawking Entropy [PDF]
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.

On Asymmetric Orbifolds and the D=5 No-modulus Supergravity [PDF]
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 ...

N=2 Chiral Supergravity in (10 + 2)-Dimensions As Consistent Background for Super (2 + 2)-Brane [PDF]
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.

An Sl(3,R) multiplet of 8-dimensional type II supergravity theories and the gauged supergravity inside [PDF]
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

Local Symmetries in the AdS_7/CFT_6 Correspondence [PDF]
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.

Supergravity and the quest for a unified theory [PDF]
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.

Twisted compactifications of 6D field theories from maximal 7D gauged supergravity
We study supersymmetric $$AdS_n\times \Sigma ^{7-n}$$ AdSn×Σ7-n , $$n=2,3,4,5$$ n=2,3,4,5 solutions in seven-dimensional maximal gauged supergravity with $$CSO(p,q,5-p-q)$$ CSO(p,q,5-p-q) and $$CSO(p,q,4-p-q)$$ CSO(p,q,4-p-q) gauge groups.
