E10 and gauged maximal supergravity
نویسندگان
چکیده
We compare the dynamics of maximal three-dimensional gauged supergravity in appropriate truncations with the equations of motion that follow from a one-dimensional E10/K(E10) coset model at the first few levels. The constant embedding tensor, which describes gauge deformations and also constitutes an M-theoretic degree of freedom beyond eleven-dimensional supergravity, arises naturally as an integration constant of the geodesic model. In a detailed analysis, we find complete agreement at the lowest levels. At higher levels there appear mismatches, as in previous studies. We discuss the origin of these mismatches.

S 3 and S 4 Reductions of Type IIA Supergravity
We construct a consistent reduction of type IIA supergravity on S 3 , leading to a maximal gauged supergravity in seven dimensions with the full set of massless SO(4) Yang-Mills fields. We do this by starting with the known S 4 reduction of eleven-dimensional super-gravity, and showing that it is possible to take a singular limit of the resulting standard SO(5)-gauged maximal supergravity in se...
متن کاملIia and Iib Spinors from K(e 10 )
We analyze the decomposition of recently constructed unfaithful spinor representations of K(E10) under its SO(9)×SO(9), and SO(9)×SO(2) subgroups, respectively, where K(E10) is the ‘maximal compact’ subgroup of the hyperbolic Kac–Moody group E10. We show that under these decompositions, respectively, one and the same K(E10) spinor gives rise to both the fermionic fields of IIA supergravity, and...
متن کاملFermionic Kac-Moody Billiards and Supergravity
We study the “fermionic billiards”, i.e. the chaotic dynamics of the gravitino, that arise in the near-spacelike-singularity limit of elevendimensional supergravity and of its dimensional truncations (notably fourdimensional simple supergravity). By exploiting the gravity-coset correspondence, we show that the billiard dynamics of the gravitino is described by a ‘spin extension’ of the E10 Weyl...
متن کاملA note on gauge fixing in Supergravity/Kac–Moody correspondences
We explain how to achieve the traceless gauge for the spatial part of the spin connection in the framework of the recently proposed correspondence between the (appropriately truncated) bosonic sectors of maximal supergravities and the ‘geodesic’ σ-model over E10/K(E10) at low levels. After making this gauge choice, the residual symmetries on both sides of this correspondence match precisely. Th...
متن کاملE10 and a small tension expansion of m theory.
A formal "small tension" expansion of D=11 supergravity near a spacelike singularity is shown to be equivalent, at least up to 30th order in height, to a null geodesic motion in the infinite-dimensional coset space E(10)/K(E10), where K(E10) is the maximal compact subgroup of the hyperbolic Kac-Moody group E10(R). For the proof we make use of a novel decomposition of E10 into irreducible repres...
