Abstract

We study supersymmetric solutions in 7- and 8-dimensional Abelian heterotic supergravity theories. In dimension 7, the solutions are described by G2G_{2} with torsion equations. When a G2G_{2} manifold has principal orbits S3×S3S^{3} \times S^{3}, the equations are reduced to ordinary differential equations with four radial functions. For these equations we obtain explicit ALC metrics with S3S^{3}-bolt and T1,1T^{1,1}-bolt singularities. In dimension 8, we study supersymmetric solutions to Spin(7)Spin(7) with torsion equations associated with 3-Sasakian manifolds by using a similar method to the case G2G_{2}.
