The supersymmetry arises in certain theories of fermions coupled to gauge fields and gravity in a spacetime of 11 dimensions. The dynamical brane background has mainly been studied for the class of purely bosonic solutions only, but recent…
A non-local classical duality between the three-block truncated 11D supergravity and the 8D vacuum gravity with two commuting Killing symmetries is established. The supergravity four-form field is generated via an inverse dualisation of the…
We construct new M-theory solutions of M5 branes that are a realization of the fully localized ten dimensional NS5/D6 and NS5/D5 brane intersections. These solutions are obtained by embedding self-dual geometries lifted to M-theory. We…
We study compactifications of eleven- and ten-dimensional maximal supergravity on Calabi-Yau threefolds. We explicitly construct truncations to pure supergravity with eight supercharges in five and four dimensions and show that they are…

We consider the spontaneous breaking of supersymmetry in five dimensional supergravity with boundaries where the supersymmetry breaking mechanism is provided by the even part of the bulk prepotential. The supersymmetric action comprises…
We construct an explicit supergravity solution for a configuration of localized D4-brane ending on a D6-brane, restricted to the near horizon region of the latter. We generate this solution by dimensionally reducing the supergravity…

The fluctuations around the D0-brane near-horizon geometry are described by two-dimensional SO(9) gauged maximal supergravity. We work out the U(1)^4 truncation of this theory whose scalar sector consists of five dilaton and four axion…
In the context of holography, we analyse aspects of supersymmetric geometries based on two-dimensional orbifolds known as spindles. By analysing spin$^c$ spinors on a spindle with an azimuthal rotation symmetry we show that under rather…
We study a number of supersymmetric solutions in the form of $Mkw_3\times S^3$- and $AdS_3\times S^3$-sliced domain walls in the maximal gauged supergravity in seven dimensions. These solutions require non-vanishing three-form fluxes to…
In this work, using two scalar fields ($\phi$, $\psi$) coupled to 4+1 dimensional gravity, we construct novel topological brane solutions through an explicit $U(1)$ symmetry breaking term. The potential of this model is constructed so that…
We discuss the reduction of the eleven-dimensional M-theory effective Lagrangian, considering first compactification from eleven to five dimensions on a Calabi-Yau manifold, followed by reduction to four dimensions on an S_1/Z_2 line…
We analyze in detail a specific 5-dimensional realization of a "brane-universe" scenario where the visible and hidden sectors are localized on spatially separated 3-branes coupled only by supergravity, with supersymmetry breaking…
We present a generalised geometry framework for systematically constructing consistent truncations of ten- and eleven-dimensional supergravity preserving varying fractions of supersymmetry. Truncations arise when there is a reduced…
We study consistent truncations in the framework of Exceptional Generalised Geometry. We classify the 4-dimensional gauged supergravities that can be obtained as a consistent truncation of 10/11-dimensional supergravity. Any truncation is…
We study spontaneous supersymmetry breaking induced by brane-localized dynamics in five-dimensional supergravity compactified on S^1/Z_2. We consider a model with gravity in the bulk and matter localized on tensionless branes at the…
We consider supersymmetric models in 5-dimensional space-time compactified on S**1/Z(2) orbifold where N=2 supersymmetry is explicitly broken down to N=1 by the orbifold projection. We find that the residual N=1 supersymmetry is broken…
In this paper we study the holographic dual to a-maximization in five-dimensional N = 2 gauged supergravity. In particular, we apply the procedure described by Tachikawa to specific examples consisting of holographic duals to gauge theories…
We construct AdS$_5 \times \Sigma$ solutions of $D=7$ gauged supergravity where $\Sigma$ is a disc, also known as a half-spindle, and uplift them to $D=11$ supergravity. By computing the anomaly polynomial of the M5-brane theory…
