Duality versus supersymmetry and compactification.
We study the interplay between T-duality, compactification and supersymmetry. We prove that when the original configuration has unbroken space-time supersymmetries, the dual configuration also does if a special condition is met: the Killing spinors of the original configuration have to be independent on the coordinate which corresponds to the isometry direction of the bosonic fields used for du...
متن کاملDuality versus Supersymmetry
We study the effect of S-duality and target-space duality tranformations of N = 4, d = 4 and N = 1, d = 10 supersymmetric configurations on their Killing spinors. We find that, under reasonable assumptions, the dual configurations are also supersymmetric and that the Killing spinors transform in a simple way. There is an increasing interest in finding new classical backgrounds of string theory ...
متن کاملSelf-duality and Supersymmetry
Chiral/self-dual restrictions of various super Yang-Mills and supergravity theories in (2,2) dimensions are described. These include the N=1 supergravity with a cosmological term and the N=1 new minimal supergravity theory. In the latter case, a self-duality condition on a torsionful Riemann curvature is possible, and it implies the equations of motion that follow from an R 2 type supergravity ...
متن کاملTasi Lectures on Compactification and Duality
We describe the moduli spaces of theories with 32 or 16 supercharges, from several points of view. Included is a review of backgrounds with D-branes (including type I ′ vacua and F-theory), a discussion of ho-lonomy of Riemannian metrics, and an introduction to the relevant portions of algebraic geometry. The case of K3 surfaces is treated in some detail.
متن کاملSoft Supersymmetry Breaking in KKLT Flux Compactification
We examine the structure of soft supersymmetry breaking terms in KKLT models of flux compactification with low energy supersymmetry. Moduli are stabilized by fluxes and nonperturbative dynamics while a de Sitter vacuum is obtained by adding supersymmetry breaking anti-branes. We discuss the characteristic pattern of mass scales in such a set-up as well as some features of 4D N = 1 supergravity ...
