Abstract

In the search for a classification of BPS backgrounds with flux, we look at geometries that arise when M-branes wrap supersymmetric cycles in Calabi-Yau manifolds. We find constraints on the differential forms in the back-reacted manifolds and discover that the calibration corresponding to the (background generating) M-brane is a co-closed form.
