We construct infinite families of Lifshitz solutions of D=10 and D=11 supergravity with dynamical exponent z=2. The new solutions are based on five- and seven-dimensional Einstein manifolds and are dual to theories in 1+2 and 1+1 spacetime…
We derive the conditions for unbroken supersymmetry for a Mink_2, (2,0) vacuum, arising from Type II supergravity on a compact eight-dimensional manifold M_8. When specialized to internal manifolds enjoying SU(4)xSU(4) structure the…
Maximal supergravities in ten and eleven dimensions admit consistent truncations on particular spheres to maximal supergravities in lower dimensions. Concurrently, the truncation to singlets under any subgroup of the sphere isometry group…

We consider the most general class of supersymmetric solutions of D=11 supergravity consisting of a warped product of AdS_5 with a six-dimensional internal manifold N_6, which are dual to N=2 super conformal field theories in d=4. For any…
We study compactifications of eleven-dimensional supergravity on Calabi-Yau threefolds times a circle, with a duality twist along the circle a la Scherk-Schwarz. This leads to four-dimensional N=2 gauged supergravity with a semi-positive…
We prove necessary and sufficient algebraic conditions to determine whether a D=3 gauged maximal supergravity can be obtained from consistent Kaluza-Klein truncation of ten- or eleven-dimensional supergravity. We describe the procedure to…
We consider gravity theories in $4+N$ dimensions which are governed by the Lagrangian written as an extended Gauss-Bonnet density. We can find a naturally generalized Einstein gravity where the maximal symmetric compactification leads to…
At the level of the bosonic fields, we construct consistent Kaluza--Klein reductions of D=11 supergravity on $\Sigma_3\times S^4$, where $\Sigma_3=H^3/\Gamma,S^3/\Gamma$ or $R^3/\Gamma$ where $\Gamma$ is a discrete group of isometries. The…
