Einstein Gravity - Supergravity Correspondence

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

A correspondence between the three-block truncated 11D supergravity and the 8D pure Einstein gravity with two commuting Killing symmetries is discussed. The Kaluza-Klein two-forms of the 6D theory obtained after dimensional reduction along the Killing orbits generate the four-form field of supergravity via an inverse dualization. Thus any solution to the vacuum Einstein equations in eight dimensions depending on six coordinates have 11D-supergravity counterparts with the non-trivial four-form field. Using this proposed duality we derive a new dyon solution of 11D supergravity describing the M2 and M5-branes intersecting at a point.
