On the spontaneous compactification of d = 11 supergravity

Journal Article · · Sov. J. Nucl. Phys. (Engl. Transl.); (United States)
OSTI ID:5707516
The Freund-Rubin mechanism of spontaneous compactification is generalized to include nonzero vacuum expectation values of the Rarita-Schwinger field. A new solution of d = 11 supergravity is constructed which describes compactification on squashed 7-sphere with torsion.
