BRST quantization and equivariant cohomology: localization with asymptotic boundaries
Bernard de Wit, Sameer Murthy, Valentin Reys
We develop BRST quantization of gauge theories with a soft gauge algebra on spaces with asymptotic boundaries. The asymptotic boundary conditions are imposed on background fields,…
Euclidean Supergravity
Bernard de Wit, Valentin Reys
Supergravity with eight supercharges in a four-dimensional Euclidean space is constructed at the full non-linear level by performing an off-shell time-like reduction of five-dimens…
New supersymmetric higher-derivative couplings: Full N=2 superspace does not count!
Bernard de Wit, Stefanos Katmadas, Maaike van Zalk
An extended class of N=2 locally supersymmetric invariants with higher-derivative couplings based on full superspace integrals, is constructed. These invariants may depend on unres…
Supergravity and M-Theory
Bernard de Wit, Maaike van Zalk
Supergravity provides the effective field theories for string compactifications. The deformation of the maximal supergravities by non-abelian gauge interactions is only possible fo…
The mixed black hole partition function for the STU model
G. L. Cardoso, J. R. David, B. de Wit +1
We evaluate the mixed partition function for dyonic BPS black holes using the recently proposed degeneracy formula for the STU model. The result factorizes into the OSV mixed parti…
The end of the p-form hierarchy
Bernard de Wit, Henning Samtleben
The introduction of a non-abelian gauge group embedded into the rigid symmetry group G of a field theory with abelian vector fields and no corresponding charges, requires in genera…
