Spinorial Geometry and Supergravity
Joe Gillard
In the main part of this thesis, we present the foundations and initial results of the Spinorial Geometry formalism for solving Killing spinor equations. This method can be used fo…

The spinorial geometry of supersymmetric backgrounds
Joe Gillard, Ulf Gran, George Papadopoulos
We propose a new method to solve the Killing spinor equations of eleven-dimensional supergravity based on a description of spinors in terms of forms and on the Spin(1,10) gauge sym…

Anomaly, Fluxes and (2,0) Heterotic-String Compactifications
J. Gillard, G. Papadopoulos, D. Tsimpis
We compute the corrections to heterotic-string backgrounds with (2,0) world-sheet supersymmetry, up to two loops in sigma-model perturbation theory. We investigate the conditions f…
