Abstract

We work out the consistent AdS3×S3_3\times S^3 truncations of the bosonic sectors of both the six-dimensional N=(1,1){\cal N}=(1,1) and N=(2,0){\cal N}=(2,0) supergravity theories. They result in inequivalent three-dimensional half-maximal SO(4){\rm SO}(4) gauged supergravities describing 32 propagating bosonic degrees of freedom apart from the non-propagating supergravity multiplet. We present the full non-linear Kaluza-Klein reduction formulas and illustrate them by explicitly uplifting a number of AdS3_3 vacua.
