Consistent truncations from the geometry of sphere bundles
Federico Bonetti, Ruben Minasian, Valentí Vall Camell +1
In this paper, we present a unified perspective on sphere consistent truncations based on the classical geometric properties of sphere bundles. The backbone of our approach is the…
Flat equivariant gerbes: holonomies and dualities
Peng Cheng, Ilarion V. Melnikov, Ruben Minasian
We examine the role of global topological data associated to choices of holonomy for flat gauge fields in string compactification. Our study begins with perturbative string compact…
Type IIB at eight derivatives: insights from Superstrings, Superfields and Superparticles
James T. Liu, Ruben Minasian, Raffaele Savelli +1
We study the non-linear structure of Type IIB eight-derivative couplings involving the metric and the complexified three-form . We show that, at the level of five-point string…
