Considering a spacetime foliated by co-dimension-2 hypersurfaces, we find the conditions under which lower-dimensional symmetries of a base space can be lifted up to irreducible Killing tensors of the full spacetime. In this construction,…

From the metric and one Killing-Yano tensor of rank D-2 in any D-dimensional spacetime with such a principal Killing-Yano tensor, we show how to generate k=[(D+1)/2] Killing-Yano tensors, of rank D-2j for all j=0,...,k-1, and k rank-2…

Certain supergravity theories admit a remarkable consistent dimensional reduction in which the internal space is a sphere. Examples include type IIB supergravity reduced on S^5, and eleven-dimensional supergravity reduced on S^4 or S^7.…

In 5D relativity, the usual 4D cosmological constant is determined by the extra dimension. If the extra dimension is spacelike, one can get a positive cosmological constant $\Lambda$ and a 4D de Sitter (dS) space. In this paper we present…

We classify the supersymmetric solutions of minimal $N=2$ gauged supergravity in four dimensions with neutral signature. They are distinguished according to the sign of the cosmological constant and whether the vector field constructed as a…

Starting with a subclass of the four-dimensional spaces possessing two commuting Killing vectors and a non-trivial Killing tensor, we fully integrate Einstein's vacuum equation with a cosmological constant. Although most of the solutions…

Under general assumptions, we show that a gravitational theory in d+1 dimensions admitting an AdS solution can be reduced to a d-dimensional theory containing a Lifshitz solution with dynamical exponent z=2. Working in a d=4, N=2…

In general relativity, the motion of an extended body moving in a given spacetime can be described by a particle on a (generally non-geodesic) worldline. In first approximation, this worldline is a geodesic of the underlying spacetime, and…

The Lense--Thirring spacetime describes a 4-dimensional slowly rotating approximate solution of vacuum Einstein equations valid to a linear order in rotation parameter. It is fully characterized by a single metric function of the…

We identify the fractions of supersymmetry preserved by the most general warped flux AdS and flat backgrounds in both massive and standard IIA supergravities. We find that $AdS_n\times_w M^{10-n}$ preserve $2^{[{n\over2}]} k$ for $n\leq 4$…

We consider superconformal and supersymmetric field theories on four-dimensional Lorentzian curved space-times, and their five-dimensional holographic duals. As in the Euclidean signature case, preserved supersymmetry for a superconformal…

We present a systematic description of all warped $AdS_n\times_w M^{10-n}$ and ${\mathbb{R}}^{n-1,1}\times_w M^{10-n}$ IIB backgrounds and identify the a priori number of supersymmetries $N$ preserved by these solutions. In particular, we…

Static, spherically symmetric solutions with regular origin are investigated of the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory with a negative cosmological constant $\Lambda$. A combination of numerical and analytical methods leads to a clear picture of…

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…

For a rotating dust with a 3-dimensional symmetry group all possible metric forms can be classified and, within each class, explicitly written out. This is made possible by the formalism of Pleba\'nski based on the Darboux theorem. In the…

We show that the holonomy of the supercovariant connection for M-theory backgrounds with $N$ Killing spinors reduces to a subgroup of $SL(32-N,\bR)\st (\oplus^N \bR^{32-N})$. We use this to give the necessary and sufficient conditions for a…

A Lagrangian formalism is used to study the motion of a spinning massive particle in Friedmann--Robertson--Walker and G\"odel spacetimes, as well as in a general Schwarzschild-like spacetime and in static spherically symmetric conformally…

We find new explicit solutions describing closed strings spinning with equal angular momentum in two independent planes in the $AdS_5$ black hole spacetime. These are $2n$ folded strings in the radial direction and also winding $m$ times…

The systematic derivation of constants of the motion, based on Killing tensors and the gauge covariant approach, is outlined. Quantum dots are shown to support second-, third- and fourth-rank Killing tensors.

We formulate and prove a constant-curvature, holonomy-valued Lorentzian analogue of Minkowski theorem for generalized tetrahedra in the constant-curvature Lorentzian spaces ${\rm dS}^3$ and ${\rm AdS}^3$. Four non-trivial based ${\rm…
