S^3 and S^4 Reductions of Type IIA Supergravity
M. Cvetic, H. Lu, C. N. Pope +2
We construct a consistent reduction of type IIA supergravity on S^3, leading to a maximal gauged supergravity in seven dimensions with the full set of massless SO(4) Yang-Mills fie…
Consistent SO(6) Reduction Of Type IIB Supergravity on S^5
M. Cvetic, H. Lu, C. N. Pope +2
Type IIB supergravity can be consistently truncated to the metric and the self-dual 5-form. We obtain the complete non-linear Kaluza-Klein S^5 reduction Ansatz for this theory, giv…
Five-dimensional N=4, SU(2) X U(1) Gauged Supergravity from Type IIB
H. Lu, C. N. Pope, T. A. Tran
We construct the complete and explicit non-linear Kaluza-Klein ansatz for deriving the bosonic sector of N=4 SU(2)\times U(1) gauged five-dimensional supergravity from the reductio…
Embedding AdS Black Holes in Ten and Eleven Dimensions
M. Cvetic, M. J. Duff, P. Hoxha +7
We construct the non-linear Kaluza-Klein ansätze describing the embeddings of the U(1)^3, U(1)^4 and U(1)^2 truncations of D=5, D=4 and D=7 gauged supergravities into the type IIB…
Exact Absorption Probability in the Extremal Six-Dimensional Dyonic String Background
M. Cvetic, H. Lu, C. N. Pope +1
We show that the minimally coupled massless scalar wave equation in the background of an six-dimensional extremal dyonic string (or D1-D5 brane intersection) is exactly solvable, i…
U-duality as General Coordinate Transformations, and Spacetime Geometry
I. V. Lavrinenko, H. Lu, C. N. Pope +1
We show that the full global symmetry groups of all the D-dimensional maximal supergravities can be described in terms of the closure of the internal general coordinate transformat…
