Purely gravitational pp-waves in AdS backgrounds are described by the generalised Kaigorodov metrics, and they generically preserve 1/4 of the maximum supersymmetry allowed by the AdS spacetimes. We obtain 1/2 supersymmetric purely…

The non-Abelian plane waves, first found in flat spacetime by Coleman and subsequently generalized to give pp-waves in Einstein-Yang-Mills theory, are shown to be 1/2 supersymmetric solutions of a wide variety of N=1 supergravity theories…

Using the supergravity solution of $N_1$ D3-branes probing $A_{N_2-1}$ singularities we study the pp-wave limit of $AdS_5\times S^5/Z_{N_2}$. We show that there are two different pp-wave limits. One is the orbifold of the pp-wave limit of…

We consider the Penrose limit of AdS$_7$ solutions of massive Type IIA supergravity. The resulting pp-wave geometry is supported by RR and NSNS fields. We quantize the Green--Schwarz superstring on the obtained pp-wave background, in the…

We discuss Kowalski-Glikman type pp-wave solutions with unbroken supersymmetry in 6 and 5 dimensional supergravity theories.

Maximally supersymmetric spacetime algebras in eleven-dimensions, which are the isometry superalgebras of Minkowski space, AdS_7 x S^4, AdS_4 x S^7 and pp-wave background, are related by Inonu-Wigner contractions. The super-AdS_{4(7)} x…

We present several supergravity solutions corresponding to both Dp, as well as Dp-Dp' systems, in NS-NS and R-R PP-wave background originating from AdS_3 times S^3 times R^4. The Dp brane solutions, p=1,..,5 are fully localized, whereas…

We derive anticommutators of supercharges with a brane charge for a D-particle in AdS(2) x S(2) and pp-wave backgrounds. A coset GL(2|2)/(GL(1))^4 and its Penrose limit are used with the supermatrix-valued coordinates for the AdS and the…

AdS waves and pp-waves can only be supported by pure radiation fields, for which the only nonvanishing component of the energy-momentum tensor is the energy density along the retarded time. We show that the nonminimal coupling of…

We construct new 1/2 supersymmetric solutions in D=3, N=2, matter coupled, U(1) gauged supergravities and study some of their properties. In the most general case they represent a string superposed with gravitational and Chern-Simons…

The Killing spinor equations for pp-wave solutions of eleven dimensional supergravity are analysed and it is shown that there are solutions that preserve 18,20,22 and 24 supersymmetries, in addition to the generic solution preserving 16…

A new static partially twisted solution of N=4, SO(4) gauged supergravity in D=11 is obtained in this work using Cveti\^c et al embedding of four dimensional into eleven dimensional supergravities. In four dimensions we get two solutions:…

We conduct an exhaustive search for solutions of IIA and IIB supergravity with augmented supersymmetry. We find a two-parameter family of IIB solutions preserving 28 supercharges, as well as several other IIA and IIB families of solutions…

We study families of PP-wave solutions of type-IIB supergravity that have (light-cone) time dependent metrics and RR five-form fluxes. They arise as Penrose limits of supergravity solutions that correspond to rotating or continuous…

We calculate the spectrum of the linearized supergravity around the maximally supersymmetric pp-wave background in eleven dimensions. The resulting spectrum agrees with that of zero-mode Hamiltonian of a supermembrane theory on the pp-wave…

In this paper, we present several gravitational wave solutions in AdS_5 X S^5 string backgrounds, as well as in AdS_7 X S^4 and AdS_4 X S^7 backgrounds in M-theory, generalizing the results of hep-th/0403253 by one of the authors. In each…

We discuss the Penrose limit of the Chamseddine-Volkov BPS selfgravitating monopole in four dimensional N=4 supergravity theory with non-abelian gauge multiplets. We analyze the properties of the resulting supersymmetric pp-wave solutions…

A multidimensional gravitational model with several scalar fields and form fields is considered. A wide class of generalized pp-wave solutions defined on a product of n+1 Ricci-flat spaces is obtained. Certain examples of solutions (e.g. in…

In this paper we show how one can obtain very simply the spectra of the PP-wave limits of M-theory over AdS_7(4) x S^4(7) spaces and IIB superstring theory over AdS_5 x S^5 from the oscillator construction of the Kaluza-Klein spectra of…

We find the most general supersymmetric solutions of ungauged N=1,d=4 supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number of vector and chiral supermultiplets, which turn out to be essentially pp-waves and strings. We also introduce magnetic…
