Ten-dimensional localization
Christopher Couzens, Alice Lüscher, James Sparks
We construct equivariantly closed polyforms for the fluxes and the action of (massive) type IIA and type IIB supergravity directly in ten dimensions. We illustrate applications of…
Probing black holes with equivariant localization
