We study the interplay between four-derivative 4d gauged supergravity, holography, wrapped M5-branes, and theories of class $\mathcal{R}$. Using results from Chern-Simons theory on hyperbolic three-manifolds and the 3d-3d correspondence we…

We classify and construct all the smooth Kaluza-Klein reductions to ten dimensions of the M2- and M5-brane configurations which preserve some of the supersymmetry. In this way we obtain a wealth of new supersymmetric IIA backgrounds…

We construct new classes of supersymmetric $AdS_2\times \Sigma$ solutions, where $\Sigma=\Sigma(n_N,n_S)$ is a spindle. Such solutions can arise as the near horizon limit of supersymmetric, accelerating black holes. The solutions are…

D3-brane solutions of type IIB supergravity can be obtained by means a classical ansatz involving a harmonic warp factor and two summands, the first being the flat Minkowskian metric of the D3 brane world-sheet and the second a Ricci flat…

We propose an organizing principle for classifying and constructing Schrodinger-invariant solutions within string theory and M-theory, based on the idea that such solutions represent nonlinear completions of linearized vector and graviton…

We investigate non-local dualities between suitably compactified higher-dimensional Einstein gravity and supergravities which can be revealed if one reinterprets the dualised Kaluza-Klein two-forms in $D>4$ as antisymmetric forms belonging…

We show that there exists a consistent truncation of 11 dimensional supergravity to the 'massless' fields of maximal (N=4) 7 dimensional gauged supergravity. We find the complete expressions for the nonlinear embedding of the 7 dimensional…

We construct a consistent truncation of six-dimensional matter coupled $F(4)$ gauged supergravity on a cornucopia of two-dimensional surfaces including a spindle, disc, domain wall and other novel backgrounds to four-dimensional minimal…

We give a formulation of linearized minimal 5-dimensional supergravity in N = 1 superspace. Infinitesimal local 5D diffeomorphisms, local 5D Lorentz transformations, and local 5D supersymmetry are all realized as off-shell superfield…

Chern-Simons AdS supergravity theories are gauge theories for the super-AdS group. These theories possess a fermionic symmetry which differs from standard supersymmetry. In this paper, we study five-dimensional Chern-Simons AdS supergravity…

We consider three-dimensional ${\mathcal N}=2$ supersymmetric field theories defined on general complex-valued backgrounds of Euclidean new minimal supergravity admitting two Killing spinors of opposite $R$-charges. We compute partition…

A new family of maximal supergravities in four dimensions, involving gaugings of the trombone scaling symmetry, has been recently introduced. Using exceptional generalised geometry, we show some supergravities in this class to arise by…

We simplify and extend the construction of half-BPS solutions to 11-dimensional supergravity, with isometry superalgebra D(2,1;\gamma) \oplus D(2,1;\gamma). Their space-time has the form AdS_3 x S^3 x S^3 warped over a Riemann surface…

Solutions of D=7 maximal gauged supergravity are constructed with metrics that are a product of a n-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS) space, with n=2,3,4,5, and certain Einstein manifolds. The gauge fields have the same form as in the…

We discuss the supersymmetry and fermionic sector of the recently obtained consistent truncations of IIB supergravity containing massive modes. In particular, we present the general form of the five-dimensional N = 4 supersymmetry…

We study the Kaluza-Klein spectrum of D=5 simple supergravity on $S^2$ with special interest in the relation to a two-dimensional N=4 superconformal field theory. The spectrum is obtained around the maximally supersymmetric…

We analyse the most general N=2 supersymmetric solutions of D=11 supergravity consisting of a warped product of four-dimensional anti-de-Sitter space with a seven-dimensional Riemannian manifold Y_7. We show that the necessary and…

We derive the invariant operators of the zero-form, the one-form, the two-form and the spinor from which the mass spectrum of Kaluza Klein of eleven-dimensional supergravity on AdS_4 x N^{010} can be derived by means of harmonic analysis.…

We discuss the notion of generalised U-duality as a solution generating technique in supergravity. We demonstrate a method to take solutions of type IIA supergravity on a 3-sphere, with NSNS flux, to new solutions of 11-dimensional…

Summarizing the results of arXiv:0707.1038, we discuss the four-dimensional effective approach to type II N=1 supersymmetric flux compactifications with general SU(3)x SU(3)-structure. In particular, we study the effect of a non-trivial…
