Shadow multiplets and superHiggs mechanism
Davide Fabbri, Pietro Frè
We discuss a general feature of Freund Rubin compactifications that was previously overlooked. It consist in a curious pairing, which we call a shadow relation, of completely diffe…
Shadow multiplets in AdS_4/CFT_3 and the super-Higgs mechanism: hints of new shadow supergravities
M. Billo`, D. Fabbri, P. Fre` +2
We discuss a general pairing that occurs in compactifications of M-theory on AdS_4 x X^7 backgrounds between massless ultra short multiplets and their massive shadows, namely certa…
Rings of short N=3 superfields in three dimensions and M-theory on AdS_4 x N^{0,1,0}
M. Billo`, D. Fabbri, P. Fre` +2
In this paper we investigate three-dimensional superconformal gauge theories with N=3 supersymmetry. Independently from specific models, we derive the shortening conditions for uni…
Three dimensional Conformal Field Theories from Sasakian seven-manifolds
Davide Fabbri
We present the construction of the candidate conformal field theories dual to non-maximally supersymmetric compactifications of 11D supergravity. We compare the spectra of…
3D superconformal theories from Sasakian seven-manifolds: new nontrivial evidences for AdS_4/CFT_3
Davide Fabbri, Pietro Fre', Leonardo Gualtieri +4
In this paper we discuss candidate superconformal N=2 gauge theories that realize the AdS/CFT correspondence with M--theory compactified on the homogeneous Sasakian 7-manifolds M^7…
Osp(N|4) supermultiplets as conformal superfields on \partial AdS_4 and the generic form of N=2, D=3 gauge theories
D. Fabbri, P. Fre`, L. Gualtieri +1
In this paper we fill a necessary gap in order to realize the explicit comparison between the Kaluza Klein spectra of supergravity compactified on AdS_4 x X^7 and superconformal fi…
The singleton action action from the supermembrane
G. Dall'Agata, D. Fabbri, C. Fraser +3
We derive the free Osp(8|4) singleton action by sending the M2brane to the Minkowski boundary of an AdS_4x{\cal M}_7 background. We do this by means of the solvable Lie algebra par…
M-theory on AdS_4xM^{111}: the complete Osp(2|4)xSU(3)xSU(2) spectrum from harmonic analysis
Davide Fabbri, Pietro Fre`, Leonardo Gualtieri +1
We reconsider the Kaluza Klein compactifications of D=11 supergravity on AdS_4x(G/H)_7 manifolds that were classified in the eighties, in the modern perspective of AdS_4/CFT_3 corr…
The Osp(8|4) singleton action from the supermembrane
Gianguido Dall'Agata, Davide Fabbri, Christophe Fraser +3
Our goal is to study the supermembrane on an background, where is a 7--dimensional Einstein manifold with Killing spinors. This is a direct w…
