Abstract

M theory is considered in its low-energy limit on a G{sub 2} manifold with nonvanishing flux. Using the Killing spinor equations for linear flux, an explicit set of first-order bosonic equations for supersymmetric solutions is found. These solutions describe a warped product of a domain wall in four-dimensional space-time and a deformed G{sub 2} manifold. It is shown how these domain walls arise from the perspective of the associated four-dimensional N=1 effective supergravity theories. We also discuss the inclusion of membrane and M5-brane sources.

Geometry of extended null supersymmetry in M theory

Journal Article Conamhna, Oisin A.P. Mac - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

For supersymmetric spacetimes in 11 dimensions admitting a null Killing spinor, a set of explicit necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of any number of arbitrary additional Killing spinors is derived. The necessary and sufficient conditions are comprised of algebraic relationships, linear in the spinorial components, between the spinorial components and their first derivatives, and the components of the spin connection and four-form. The integrability conditions for the Killing spinor equation are also analyzed in detail, to determine which components of the field equations are implied by arbitrary additional supersymmetries and the four-form Bianchi identity. This provides a completemore »« less

Eight-manifolds with G structure in eleven dimensional supergravity

Journal Article Conamhna, Oisin A.P. Mac - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We extend the refined G-structure classification of supersymmetric solutions of 11 dimensional supergravity. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an arbitrary number of Killing spinors whose common isotropy group contains a compact factor acting irreducibly in eight spatial dimensions and which embeds in (Spin(7)xR{sup 8})xR. We use these conditions to explicitly derive the general local bosonic solution of the Killing spinor equation admitting an N=4 SU(4) structure embedding in a (Spin(7)xR{sup 8})xR structure, up to an eight-manifold of SU(4) holonomy. Subject to very mild assumptions on the form of the metric, we explicitly derive the generalmore »« less

M-theory compactification, fluxes, and AdS{sub 4}

Journal Article Lukas, Andre ; Saffin, P M - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We analyze supersymmetric solutions of M-theory based an a seven-dimensional internal space with SU(3) structure and a four-dimensional maximally symmetric space. The most general supersymmetry conditions are derived and we show that a nonvanishing cosmological constant requires the norms of the two internal spinors to differ. We find explicit local solutions with singlet flux and the space being a warped product of a circle, a nearly Kaehler manifold and AdS{sub 4}. The embedding of solutions into heterotic M-theory is also discussed.

Baryons and domain walls in an N=1 superconformal gauge theory

Journal Article Gubser, S S ; Klebanov, I R - Physical Review, D

Coincident D3-branes placed at a conical singularity are related to string theory on AdS{sub 5}{times}X{sub 5}, for a suitable five-dimensional Einstein manifold X{sub 5}. For the example of the conifold, which leads to X{sub 5}=T{sup 1,1}=[SU(2){times}SU(2)]/U(1), the infrared limit of the theory on {ital N} D3-branes was constructed recently. This is an N=1 supersymmetric SU(N){times}SU(N) gauge theory coupled to four bifundamental chiral superfields and supplemented by a quartic superpotential which becomes marginal in the infrared. In this paper we consider D3-branes wrapped over the 3-cycles of T{sup 1,1} and identify them with baryon-like chiral operators built out of products ofmore »« less

Flowing to higher dimensions: a new strongly-coupled phase on M2 branes

Journal Article Pilch, Krzysztof ; Tyukov, Alexander ; Warner, Nicholas P. - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

We describe a one-parameter family of new holographic RG flows that start from AdS ₄ × S ⁷ and go to AdS ₅ˆ×B6, where B6 is conformal to a Kahler manifold and AdS ₅ˆ is Poincaré AdS ₅ with one spatial direction compactified and fibered over B6. The new solutions “flow up dimensions,” going from the (2 + 1)-dimensional conformal field theory on M2 branes in the UV to a (3 + 1)-dimensional field theory on intersecting M5 branes in the infra-red. The M2 branes completely polarize into M5 branes along the flow and the Poincare sections of the AdSmore »« less
