Within the AdS/CFT correspondence, we review the studies of field theories with a large
number of adjoint and fundamental fields, in the Veneziano limit. We concentrate in set‐ups …

All purely bosonic supersymmetric solutions of minimal supergravity in five dimensions are
classified. The solutions preserve either one half or all of the supersymmetry. Explicit …

We describe all almost contact metric, almost hermitian and $ G_2 $-structures admitting a
connection with totally skew-symmetric torsion tensor, and prove that there exists at most …

We analyze the necessary and sufficient conditions for the preservation of supersymmetry
for bosonic geometries of the form R 1, 9− d× M d, in the common Neveu-Schwarz–Neveu …

We analyse the most general supersymmetric solutions of D= 11 supergravity consisting of a
warped product of five-dimensional anti-de Sitter space with a six-dimensional Riemannian …

We propose a way to classify the local form of all bosonic supersymmetric configurations of
D= 11 supergravity, using the differential forms that can be constructed as bi-linears from the …

We discuss the action of O (d, d), and in particular T-duality, in the context of generalized
geometry, focusing on the description of so-called non-geometric backgrounds. We derive …

This is a review on brane effective actions, their symmetries and some of their applications.
Its first part covers the Green-Schwarz formulation of single M-and D-brane effective actions …

We discuss the mathematical properties of six-dimensional non-Kähler manifolds which
occur in the context of N= 1 supersymmetric heterotic and type IIA string compactifications …

We analyse the geometrical structure of supersymmetric solutions of type II supergravity of
the form 1, 9− n× M n with non-trivial NS flux and dilaton. Solutions of this type arise naturally …
