M ar 2 00 8 IIB backgrounds with five - form flux
We investigate all N = 2 supersymmetric IIB supergravity backgrounds with non-vanishing five-form flux. The Killing spinors have stability subgroups Spin(7)⋉ R , SU(4) ⋉ R and G2. In the SU(4) ⋉ R 8 case, two different types of geometry arise depending on whether the Killing spinors are generic or pure. In both cases, the backgrounds admit a null Killing vector field which leaves invariant the ...

متن کاملExact Type IIB Superstring Backgrounds
We obtain a family of type IIB superstring backgrounds involving RamondRamond fields in ten dimensions starting from a heterotic string background with vanishing gauge fields. To this end the global SL(2, R) symmetry of the type IIB equations of motion is implemented as a solution generating transformation. Using a geometrical analysis we show that the type IIB backgrounds obtained are solution...
متن کاملOn general flux backgrounds with localized sources
We derive new consistency conditions for string compactifications with generic fluxes (RR, NSNS, geometrical) and localized sources (D-branes, NS-branes, KKmonopoles). The constraints are all related by string dualities and share a common origin in M-theory. We also find new sources of instabilities. We discuss the importance of these conditions for the consistency of the effective action and f...
متن کاملThe spinorial geometry of supersymmetric IIB backgrounds
We investigate the Killing spinor equations of IIB supergravity for one Killing spinor. We show that there are three types of orbits of Spin(9, 1) in the space of Weyl spinors which give rise to Killing spinors with stability subgroups Spin(7)⋉ R , SU(4)⋉R and G2. We solve the Killing spinor equations for the Spin(7)⋉R 8 and SU(4) ⋉ R invariant spinors, give the fluxes in terms of the geometry ...
