Geometric and Non-Geometric Compactifications of IIB Supergravity
Complimentary geometric and non-geometric consistent reductions of IIB supergravity are studied. The geometric reductions on the identified group manifold X = G/Γ are found to have a gauge symmetry with Lie algebroid structure, generalising that found in similar reductions of the Bosonic string theory and eleven-dimensional supergravity. Examples of such compactifications are considered and the...
متن کاملGeometric Structures in Field Theory
This review paper is concerned with the generalizations to field theory of the tangent and cotangent structures and bundles that play fundamental roles in the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of classical mechanics. The paper reviews, compares and constrasts the various generalizations in order to bring some unity to the field of study. The generalizations seem to fall into two categorie...
متن کاملNon-associative deformations of geometry in double field theory
Non-geometric string backgrounds were proposed to be related to a nonassociative deformation of the space-time geometry. In the flux formulation of double field theory (DFT), the structure of mathematically possible non-associative deformations is analyzed in detail. It is argued that on-shell there should not be any violation of associativity in the effective DFT action. For imposing either th...
متن کاملNon - critical NSR string field theory and discrete states interaction in 2 D supergravity
String field theory for the non-critical NSR string is described. In particular it gives string field theory for the 2D super-gravity coupled to a ˆ c = 1 matter field. For this purpose double-step pictures changing operators for the non-critical NSR string are constructed. Analogues of the critical supersymmetry transformations are written for D < 10, they form a closed on-shell algebra, howev...
متن کاملFluxes, supersymmetry breaking and gauged supergravity
We report on the gauged supergravity interpretation of certain compactifications of superstring theories with p-form fluxes turned on. We discuss in particular the interplay of duality symmetries in type IIB orientifolds and gauged isometries in the corresponding supergravity models. Turning on fluxes is generally described by the gauging of some nilpotent Lie group whose generators correspond ...
