Non-Relativistic Heterotic String Theory
Eric Bergshoeff, Luca Romano
In this work we consider heterotic-gravity as the low-energy approximation to heterotic string theory. We define a consistent non-relativistic limit of heterotic gravity that inclu…
-brane Galilean and Carrollian Geometries and Gravities
Eric Bergshoeff, José Figueroa-O'Farrill, Kevin van Helden +3
We study -dimensional -brane Galilean geometries via the intrinsic torsion of their adapted connections. These non-Lorentzian geometries are examples of -structures whose…
Non-Lorentzian IIB Supergravity from a Polynomial Realization of SL(2,R)
Eric Bergshoeff, Kevin T. Grosvenor, Johannes Lahnsteiner +2
We derive the action and symmetries of the bosonic sector of non-Lorentzian IIB supergravity by taking the non-relativistic string limit. We find that the bosonic field content is…
Non-Relativistic Supersymmetry on Curved Three-Manifolds
Eric Bergshoeff, Athanasios Chatzistavrakidis, Johannes Lahnsteiner +2
We construct explicit examples of non-relativistic supersymmetric field theories on curved Newton-Cartan three-manifolds. These results are obtained by performing a null reduction…
Heterotic-Type II duality and wrapping rules
E. A. Bergshoeff, C. Condeescu, G. Pradisi +1
We show how the brane wrapping rules, recently discovered in closed oriented string theories compactified on tori, are extended to the case of the Type IIA string compactified on K…
IIA/IIB Supergravity and Ten-forms
E. A. Bergshoeff, J. Hartong, P. S. Howe +2
We perform a careful investigation of which p-form fields can be introduced consistently with the supersymmetry algebra of IIA and/or IIB ten-dimensional supergravity. In particula…
