We give full details for the computation of the Kaluza--Klein mass spectrum of Type IIB Supergravity on AdS_5 x T^{11}, with T^{11}=SU(2)xSU(2)/U(1), that has recently lead to both stringent tests and interesting predictions on the…

In this thesis we investigate the effective actions for massive Kaluza-Klein states, focusing on the massive modes of spin-3/2 and spin-2 fields. To this end we determine the spontaneously broken gauge symmetries associated to these `higher…

We calculate the dimensions of operators in three and six dimensional superconformal field theories by using the duality between these theories at large N and D=11 supergravity on $AdS_{4/7} \times S^{7/4}$. We find that for the duality…

We use $E_{8(8)}$ Exceptional Field Theory to construct the consistent truncation of IIB supergravity on $S^3 \times S^3 \times S^1$ to maximal 3-dimensional ${\cal N}=16$ gauged supergravity containing the ${\cal N}=(4,4)$ AdS$_3$ vacuum.…

From a consistent Kaluza-Klein truncation of 11-dimensional supergravity over AdS_4 x CP^3 x S^1/Z_k, with a general 4-form ansatz, we arrive at a set of equations and solutions for the included fields. In particular, we have a bulk…

We construct the complete and explicit non-linear Kaluza-Klein Ansatz for deriving the bosonic sector of the standard N=4 SO(4) gauged four-dimensional supergravity from the reduction of D=11 supergravity on S^7. This provides a way of…

We discuss a continuous family of non-supersymmetric AdS$_3\times S^3\times{\rm T^4}$ vacua in heterotic and type II supergravities whose complete Kaluza-Klein spectrum is computed and found to be free from instabilities. This family is…

We review recent work on the holographic duals of type II and heterotic matrix string theories described by warped AdS_3 supergravities. In particular, we compute the spectra of Kaluza-Klein primaries for type I, II supergravities on warped…

We construct consistent non-linear Kaluza Klein reduction ansatze for a subset of fields arising from the reduction of IIB* and M* theory on dS_5 x H^5 and dS_4 x AdS_7, respectively. These reductions yield four and five-dimensional de…

This paper contains a classification of smooth Kaluza--Klein reductions (by one-parameter subgroups) of the maximally supersymmetric anti de Sitter backgrounds of supergravity theories. We present a classification of one-parameter subgroups…

We construct the non-linear Kaluza-Klein ans\"atze describing the embeddings of the U(1)^3, U(1)^4 and U(1)^2 truncations of D=5, D=4 and D=7 gauged supergravities into the type IIB string and M-theory. These enable one to oxidise any…

We propose a new supersymmetry in field theory that generalizes standard supersymmetry and we construct field theoretic models that provide some of its representations. This symmetry combines a finite number of standard 4D supersymmetry…

In this work, we develop a generalization of Kaluza-Klein theory by considering a purely affine framework, without assuming a prior metric structure. We formulate the dimensional reduction using the geometry of principal fiber bundles and…

Eleven-dimensional supergravity on $S^8\times S^1$ is conjectured to be dual to the M-theory matrix model. We prove that the dynamics of a subset of fluctuations around this background is consistently described by D=2 SO(9) gauged maximal…

We show that quantum mechanical supersymmetries are emerged in Kaluza-Klein spectrum of linearized gravity in several warped backgrounds as a consequence of higher-dimensional general coordinate invariance. These emergent supersymmetries…
