An M-theory solution from null roots in E11

Laurent Houart, Axel Kleinschmidt, Josef Lindman Hörnlund

We find a purely gravitational classical solution of M-theory/eleven-dimensional supergravity which corresponds to a solution of the E10 brane sigma-model involving a null root. Th…

Some Algebraic Aspects of Half-BPS Bound States in M-Theory

Laurent Houart, Axel Kleinschmidt, Josef Lindman Hörnlund

We revisit non-marginal half-BPS solutions of M-theory in the framework of the possible existence of an underlying E11 Kac-Moody symmetry. In this context, non-marginal BPS solutio…

Finite and infinite-dimensional symmetries of pure N=2 supergravity in D=4

Laurent Houart, Axel Kleinschmidt, Josef Lindman Hörnlund +2

We study the symmetries of pure N=2 supergravity in D=4. As is known, this theory reduced on one Killing vector is characterised by a non-linearly realised symmetry SU(2,1) which i…

Boosting Taub-NUT to a BPS NUT-wave

Riccardo Argurio, François Dehouck, Laurent Houart

The boosted Taub-NUT metric with zero ADM mass is shown to possess a dual momentum in the direction of the boost giving credit to the existence of another 4-vector K_μin linearized…

Supersymmetry and Gravitational Duality

Riccardo Argurio, François Dehouck, Laurent Houart

We study how the supersymmetry algebra copes with gravitational duality. As a playground, we consider a charged Taub-NUT solution of D=4, N=2 supergravity. We find explicitly its K…

The emergence of fermions and the E11 content

Francois Englert, Laurent Houart

Claudio's warm and endearing personality adds to our admiration for his achievements in physics a sense of friendliness. His constant interest in fundamental questions motivated th…
