Classification of supersymmetric spacetimes in eleven dimensions
Marco Cariglia, Oisin A. P. Mac Conamhna
We derive, for spacetimes admitting a Spin(7) structure, the general local bosonic solution of the Killing spinor equation of eleven dimensional supergravity. The metric, four form…
Null structure groups in eleven dimensions
Marco Cariglia, Oisin A. P. Mac Conamhna
We classify all the structure groups which arise as subgroups of the isotropy group, , of a single null Killing spinor in eleven dimen…
Timelike Killing spinors in seven dimensions
Marco Cariglia, Oisin A. P. Mac Conamhna
We employ the G-structure formalism to study supersymmetric solutions of minimal and SU(2) gauged supergravities in seven dimensions admitting Killing spinors with associated timel…
Intersecting D-branes, Chern-kernels and the inflow mechanism
Marco Cariglia, Kurt Lechner
We analyse a system of arbitrarily intersecting D-branes in ten-dimensional supergravity. Chiral anomalies are supported on the intersection branes, called I-branes. For non-transv…
The general form of supersymmetric solutions of N=(1,0) U(1) and SU(2) gauged supergravities in six dimensions
Marco Cariglia, Oisin A. P. Mac Conamhna
We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for a supersymmetric field configuration in the N=(1,0) U(1) or SU(2) gauged supergravities in six dimensions, and impose the field eq…
Non-Abelian pp-waves in D=4 supergravity theories
M. Cariglia, G. W. Gibbons, R. Guven +1
The non-Abelian plane waves, first found in flat spacetime by Coleman and subsequently generalized to give pp-waves in Einstein-Yang-Mills theory, are shown to be 1/2 supersymmetri…
