N = 2 Chiral Supergravity in ( 10 + 2 ) - Dimensions As Consistent Background for Super ( 2 + 2 ) - Brane

چکیده
We present a theory of N = 2 chiral supergravity in (10 + 2)-dimensions. This formulation is similar to N = 1 supergravity presented recently using null-vectors in 12D. In order to see the consistency of this theory, we perform a simple dimensional reduction to ten-dimensions, reproducing the type IIB chiral supergravity. We also show that our su-pergravity can be consistent background for super (2 + 2)-brane theory, satisfying fermionic invariance of the total action. Such supergravity theory without manifest Lorentz invariance had been predicted by the recent F-theory in twelve-dimensions.

متن کاملSupergravity Theories in D ≥ 12 Coupled to Super p - Branes
We construct supergravity theories in twelve and thirteen dimensions with the respective signatures (10, 2) and (11, 2) with some technical details. Starting with N = 1 supergravity in 10+2 dimensions coupled to Green-Schwarz superstring, we give N = 2 chiral supergravity in 10+2 dimensions with its couplings to super (2 + 2)-brane. We also build an N = 1 supergravity in 11+2 dimensions, couple...
متن کاملA String and M - theory Origin for the Salam - Sezgin Model
An M/string-theory origin for the six-dimensional Salam-Sezgin chiral gauged super-gravity is obtained, by embedding it as a consistent Pauli-type reduction of type I or het-erotic supergravity on the non-compact hyperboloid H 2,2. We can also obtain embeddings of larger, non-chiral, gauged supergravities in six dimensions, whose consistent truncation yields the Salam-Sezgin theory. The lift of...
متن کاملThe Super D9-Brane and its Truncations
We consider two inequivalent truncations of the super D9–brane: the “Heterotic” and the “Type I” truncation. Both of them lead to an N = 1 nonlinear supersymmetrization of the D = 10 cosmological constant. The propagating degrees of freedom in the Heterotic and Type I truncation are given by the components of a D = 10 vector multiplet and a single Majorana-Weyl spinor, respectively. As a by-pro...
متن کاملSupergravity in 10 + 2 Dimensions as Consistent Background for Superstring
We present a consistent theory of N = 1 supergravity in twelve-dimensions with the signature (10, 2). Even though the formulation uses two null vectors violating the manifest Lorentz covariance, all the super-space Bianchi identities are satisfied. After a simple dimensional reduction to ten-dimensions, this theory reproduces the N = 1 supergravity in ten-dimensions, supporting the consistency ...
