Vacua of Maximal Gauged D = 3 Supergravities
We analyze the scalar potentials of maximal gauged three-dimensional supergravities which reveal a surprisingly rich structure. In contrast to maximal supergravities in dimensions D ≥ 4, all these theories admit a maximally supersymmetric (N = 16) ground state with negative cosmological constant Λ < 0, except for the gauge group SO(4, 4)2, for which Λ = 0. We compute the mass spectra of bosonic...
متن کاملGeometric Transitions, Non-Kahler Geometries and String Vacua
We summarize an explicit construction of a duality cycle for geometric transitions in type II and heterotic theories. We emphasize that the manifolds with torsion constructed with this duality cycle are crucial for understanding different phenomena appearing in effective field theories.
متن کاملFiniteness of Flux Vacua from Geometric Transitions
We argue for finiteness of flux vacua around type IIB CY singularities by computing their gauge theory duals. This leads us to propose a geometric transition where the compact 3-cycles support both RR and NS flux, while the open string side contains 5-brane bound states. By a suitable combination of S duality and symplectic transformations, both sides are shown to have the same IR physics. The ...
متن کاملSupergravities with Minkowski × Sphere Vacua
Recently the authors have introduced a new gauged supergravity theory with a positive definite potential in D = 6, obtained through a generalised Kaluza-Klein reduction from D = 7. Of particular interest is the fact that this theory admits certain Minkowski×Sphere vacua. In this paper we extend the previous results by constructing gauged supergravities with positive definitive potentials in div...
متن کاملMinkowski Flux Vacua of Type II Supergravities.
We study flux compactifications of 10D type II supergravities to 4D Minkowski space-time, supported by parallel orientifold O_{p} planes with 3≤p≤8. With some geometric restrictions, the 4D Ricci scalar can be written as a negative sum of squares involving Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield-like conditions. Setting all squares to zero provides automatically a solution to 10D equations of motion. Th...
