How to uplift D=3 maximal supergravities

Gianluca Inverso, Davide Rovere

We prove necessary and sufficient algebraic conditions to determine whether a D=3 gauged maximal supergravity can be obtained from consistent Kaluza-Klein truncation of ten- or ele…

Consistent truncation of eleven-dimensional supergravity on

Guillaume Bossard, Franz Ciceri, Gianluca Inverso +1

Eleven-dimensional supergravity on is conjectured to be dual to the M-theory matrix model. We prove that the dynamics of a subset of fluctuations around this backgr…

Maximal D=2 supergravities from higher dimensions

Guillaume Bossard, Franz Ciceri, Gianluca Inverso +1

We develop in detail the general framework of consistent Kaluza-Klein truncations from D=11 and type II supergravities to gauged maximal supergravities in two dimensions. In partic…

Consistent Kaluza-Klein truncations and two-dimensional gauged supergravity

Guillaume Bossard, Franz Ciceri, Gianluca Inverso +1

We consider generalized Scherk-Schwarz reductions of E exceptional field theory to D=2 space-time dimensions and in particular construct the resulting scalar potential of all g…

Vacua of -deformed SO(8) supergravity

David Berman, Thomas Fischbacher, Gianluca Inverso +1

We perform a detailed analysis of the vacua of -deformed SO(8) supergravity in four dimensions. In particular, using Tensorflow-based numerical methods, we track how the equilib…

E exceptional field theory II. The complete dynamics

Guillaume Bossard, Franz Ciceri, Gianluca Inverso +2

We construct the first complete exceptional field theory that is based on an infinite-dimensional symmetry group. E exceptional field theory provides a unified description of e…

Old and new vacua of 5D maximal supergravity

G. Dall'Agata, G. Inverso, D. Partipilo

We look for critical points with U(2) residual symmetry in 5-dimensional maximally supersymmetric gauged supergravity, by varying the embedding tensor, rather than directly minimiz…

Uplifts of maximal supergravities and transitions to non-geometric vacua

Gianguido Dall'Agata, Gianluca Inverso, Paolo Spezzati

We describe a new procedure to obtain consistent backgrounds that uplift vacua and deformations of various maximal gauged supergravities by taking a known solution and performing s…

E exceptional field theory I. The potential

Guillaume Bossard, Franz Ciceri, Gianluca Inverso +2

We construct the scalar potential for the exceptional field theory based on the affine symmetry group E. The fields appearing in this potential live formally on an infinite-dim…

Generalised Scherk-Schwarz reductions from gauged supergravity

Gianluca Inverso

A procedure is described to construct generalised Scherk-Schwarz uplifts of gauged supergravities. The internal manifold, fluxes, and consistent truncation Ansatz are all derived f…

Double Field Theory at SL(2) angles

Franz Ciceri, Giuseppe Dibitetto, J. J. Fernandez-Melgarejo +2

An extended field theory is presented that captures the full SL(2) x O(6,6+n) duality group of four-dimensional half-maximal supergravities. The theory has section constraints whos…

Type II origin of dyonic gaugings

Gianluca Inverso, Henning Samtleben, Mario Trigiante

Dyonic gaugings of four-dimensional supergravity typically exhibit a richer vacuum structure compared to their purely electric counterparts, but their higher-dimensional origin oft…

The exceptional story of massive IIA supergravity

Franz Ciceri, Adolfo Guarino, Gianluca Inverso

The framework of exceptional field theory is extended by introducing consistent deformations of its generalised Lie derivative. For the first time, massive type IIA supergravity is…
