Symmetric discrete quotients of supersymmetric Hpp-waves and spin structures

arXiv:hep-th/0601087

Abstract

We explore the importance of the choice of spin structure in determining the amount of supersymmetry preserved by a symmetric M-theory background constructed by quotienting a supersymmetric Hpp-wave with a discrete subgroup in the centraliser of its isometry group.
