Exceptional field theory. I. -covariant form of M-theory and type IIB

O Hohm, H Samtleben - Physical Review D, 2014 - APS
We present the details of the recently constructed E 6 (6)-covariant extension of 11-
dimensional supergravity. This theory requires a 5+ 27-dimensional spacetime in which the …

Lectures on gauged supergravity and flux compactifications

H Samtleben - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
The low-energy effective theories describing string compactifications in the presence of
fluxes are the so-called gauged supergravities: deformations of the standard Abelian …

Gauged supergravities, tensor hierarchies, and M-theory

B De Wit, H Nicolai, H Samtleben - Journal of High Energy …, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
Deformations of maximal supergravity theories induced by gauging non-abelian subgroups
of the duality group reveal the presence of charged M-theory degrees of freedom that are not …

The maximal D= 4 supergravities

B De Wit, H Samtleben, M Trigiante - Journal of High Energy …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
All maximal supergravities in four space-time dimensions are presented. The ungauged
Lagrangians can be encoded in an E 7 (7)\Sp (56; Bbb R)/GL (28) matrix associated with the …

Maximal D= 2 supergravities from higher dimensions

G Bossard, F Ciceri, G Inverso… - Journal of High Energy …, 2024 - Springer
A bstract We develop in detail the general framework of consistent Kaluza-Klein truncations
from D= 11 and type II supergravities to gauged maximal supergravities in two dimensions …

E 9 exceptional field theory. Part II. The complete dynamics

G Bossard, F Ciceri, G Inverso, A Kleinschmidt… - Journal of High Energy …, 2021 - Springer
A bstract We construct the first complete exceptional field theory that is based on an infinite-
dimensional symmetry group. E 9 exceptional field theory provides a unified description of …

Generalized diffeomorphisms for

G Bossard, M Cederwall, A Kleinschmidt, J Palmkvist… - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
We construct generalized diffeomorphisms for E 9 exceptional field theory. The
transformations, which like in the E 8 case contain constrained local transformations, close …

Supergravities without an action: gauging the trombone

A Le Diffon, H Samtleben - Nuclear physics B, 2009 - Elsevier
We present a systematic account of supergravity theories in which the global scaling
symmetry is gauged. This generalizes the standard gaugings of non-abelian off-shell …

Consistent truncation of eleven-dimensional supergravity on S8× S1

G Bossard, F Ciceri, G Inverso… - Journal of High Energy …, 2024 - Springer
A bstract Eleven-dimensional supergravity on S 8× S 1 is conjectured to be dual to the M-
theory matrix model. We prove that the dynamics of a subset of fluctuations around this …

E9 exceptional field theory. Part I. The potential

G Bossard, F Ciceri, G Inverso, A Kleinschmidt… - Journal of High Energy …, 2019 - Springer
A bstract We construct the scalar potential for the exceptional field theory based on the affine
symmetry group E 9. The fields appearing in this potential live formally on an infinite …
