Pseudo-supersymmetry and a Tale of Alternate Realities
E. A. Bergshoeff, J. Hartong, A. Ploegh +2
We discuss how all variant 10d and 11d maximal supergravities, including star supergravities and supergravities in different signatures, can be obtained as different real slices of…

The unifying superalgebra OSp(1|32)
Eric Bergshoeff, Antoine Van Proeyen
We show how OSp(1|32) gives a unifying framework to describe d=10 type II string theories, d=11 M-theory and d=12 F-theory. The theories are related by different identifications of…

Lectures on W algebras and W gravity
C. N. Pope
We give a review of the extended conformal algebras, known as algebras, which contain currents of spins higher than 2 in addition to the energy-momentum tensor. These include t…
