Linearized supergravity from Matrix theory
نویسنده
چکیده
We show that the linearized supergravity potential between two objects arising from the exchange of quanta with zero longitudinal momentum is reproduced to all orders in 1/r by terms in the one-loop Matrix theory potential. The essential ingredient in the proof is the identification of the Matrix theory quantities corresponding to moments of the stress tensor and membrane current. We also point out that finite-N Matrix theory violates the equivalence principle.

The existence of a linearized SUSY invariant for N = 8 supergravity whose gravitational components are usually called R was established long ago by on-shell superspace arguments. Superspace and string theory methods have also established analogous higher dimensional DR invariants. However, very little is known about the SUSY completions of these operators which involve other fields of the theor...
متن کاملZero-mode Spectrum of Eleven-dimensional Theory on the Plane-wave Background
In this doctoral thesis we study zero-mode spectra of Matrix theory and eleven-dimensional supergravity on the plane-wave background. This background is obtained via the Penrose limit of AdS4 × S7 and AdS7 × S4. The plane-wave background is a maximally supersymmetric spacetime supported by non-vanishing constant four-form flux in eleven-dimensional spacetime. First, we discuss the Matrix theory...
متن کاملSymmetry Breaking for Matter Coupled to Linearized Supergravity ¿From the Perspective of the Current Supermultiplet
We consider a generic supersymmetric matter theory coupled to linearized supergravity, and analyze scenarios for spontaneous symmetry breaking in terms of vacuum expectation values of components of the current supermultiplet. When the vacuum expectation of the energy momentum tensor is zero, but the scalar current or pseudoscalar current gets an expectation, evaluation of the gravitino self ene...
متن کاملSupergravity Duals of Matrix String Theory
We study holographic duals of type II and heterotic matrix string theories described by warped AdS3 supergravities. By explicitly solving the linearized equations of motion around near horizon D-string geometries, we determine the spectrum of Kaluza-Klein primaries for type I, II supergravities on warped AdS3 × S7. The results match those coming from the dual two-dimensional gauge theories livi...
متن کاملChiral Supergravity
We study the linearized approximation of N = 1 topologically massive supergravity around AdS3. Linearized gravitino fields are explicitly constructed. For appropriate boundary conditions, the conserved charges demonstrate chiral behavior, so that chiral gravity can be consistently extended to chiral supergravity.
