All homogeneous N=2 M-theory truncations with supersymmetric AdS4 vacua

Davide Cassani, Paul Koerber, Oscar Varela

We study consistent truncations of M-theory to gauged N=2 supergravity in four dimensions, based on a large class of SU(3)-structures in seven dimensions. We show that the gauging…

Tri-Sasakian consistent reduction

Davide Cassani, Paul Koerber

We establish a universal consistent Kaluza-Klein truncation of M-theory based on seven-dimensional tri-Sasakian structure. The four-dimensional truncated theory is an N=4 gauged su…

De Sitter hunting in a classical landscape

Ulf H. Danielsson, Sheikh S. Haque, Paul Koerber +3

We elaborate on the construction of de Sitter solutions from IIA orientifolds of SU(3)-structure manifolds that solve the 10-dimensional equations of motion at tree-level in the ap…

Lectures on Generalized Complex Geometry for Physicists

Paul Koerber

In these lectures we review Generalized Complex Geometry and discuss two main applications to string theory: the description of supersymmetric flux compactifications and the supers…

Universal de Sitter solutions at tree-level

Ulf H. Danielsson, Paul Koerber, Thomas Van Riet

Type IIA string theory compactified on SU(3)-structure manifolds with orientifolds allows for classical de Sitter solutions in four dimensions. In this paper we investigate these s…

A landscape of non-supersymmetric AdS vacua on coset manifolds

Paul Koerber, Simon Kors

We construct new families of non-supersymmetric sourceless type IIA AdS4 vacua on those coset manifolds that also admit supersymmetric solutions. We investigate the spectrum of lef…
