We study a new contraction of a d+1 dimensional relativistic conformal algebra where n+1 directions remain unchanged. For n=0,1 the resultant algebras admit infinite dimensional extension containing one and two copies of Virasoro algebra,…
In this paper we generalize Vasiliev's higher-spin gravity theory in 3d into $\mathcal{N} = (0, 2)$ case, by which we mean that the asymptotic symmetry of such a gravity theory have the structure of 2d $\mathcal{N} = (0, 2)$ superconformal…
Using the action of three dimensional New Massive Gravity (NMG) we construct a new bi-gravity in three dimensions. This can be done by promoting the rank two auxiliary field appearing in the expression of NMG's action into a dynamical…
We construct supergravity solutions dual to twisted field theories that are the worldvolume theories of D4-branes wrapped on 2, 3-cycles, and NS-fivebranes on 3-cycles. We first obtain the solutions for the Romans' six-dimensional gauged…

We present a detailed study of the most general N=2 supersymmetric sigma models in four-dimensional anti-de Sitter space AdS_4 formulated in terms of N=1 chiral superfields. The target space is demonstrated to be a non-compact hyperkahler…
In this talk we will study the partial breaking of supersymmetry in flat and anti de Sitter space. We will see that partial breaking in flat space can be accomplished using either of two representations for the massive N=1 spin-3/2…
We classify supersymmetric warped AdS$_3 \times_w M_7$ backgrounds of Type IIA and Type IIB supergravity with non-constant dilaton, generic RR fluxes and magnetic NSNS flux, in terms of a dynamic $SU(3)$-structure on $M_7$. We illustrate…
We construct new 1/2 supersymmetric solutions in D=3, N=2, matter coupled, U(1) gauged supergravities and study some of their properties. We do this by employing a quite general supersymmetry breaking condition, from which we also redrive…
