Abstract

New techniques based on Exceptional Field Theory have recently allowed for the calculation of the Kaluza-Klein spectra of certain AdS4 solutions of D = 11 and massive IIA supergravity. These are the solutions that consistently uplift on S7 and S6 from vacua of maximal four-dimensional supergravity with SO(8) and ISO(7) gaugings. In this paper, we provide an algorithmic procedure to compute the complete Kaluza-Klein spectrum of five such AdS4 solutions, all of them N\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$ \\mathcal{N} $$\\end{document} = 1, and give the first few Kaluza-Klein levels. These solutions preserve SO(3) and U(1) × U(1) internal symmetry in D = 11, and U(1) (two of them) and no continuous symmetry in type IIA. Together with previously discussed cases, our results exhaust the Kaluza-Klein spectra of known supersymmetric AdS4 solutions in D = 11 and type IIA in the relevant class.

Highlights

  • Extremely hard and, for that reason, progress on finding the KK spectra of such solutions has been virtually inexistent over the last twenty years or so

  • In this paper we will focus on D = 11 [1] and massive type IIA [17] supersymmetric solutions of the form AdS4 ×w S7 and AdS4 ×w S6, that uplift consistently [36,37,38] from critical points of D = 4 N = 8 supergravity [39] with SO(8) [40] and dyonic ISO(7) [41] gaugings, respectively

  • In this work we present the KK spectrum of the AdS4 ×w S7 solutions of D = 11 supergravity that uplift from the N = 1 critical points of D = 4 N = 8 SO(8) supergravity [40] with SO(3) [42, 46] and U(1) × U(1) [47, 48] residual symmetry

Summary

Kaluza-Klein mass matrices

The mass matrices for the bosonic and fermionic KK perturbations above the AdS4 solutions of interest have been derived from E7(7) ExFT [28,29,30,31] in [27, 44, 45, 50]. These vevs can be brought to the mass matrices (2.1)–(2.4), along with the expressions for the SO(8) or SO(7) generators given in appendix A of [44], in order to evaluate these mass matrices at each vacuum Diagonalising these matrices KK level by KK level, and removing the spurious spin-1 and spin-1/2 modes discussed at the end of section 2, we are able to find the KK towers of physical graviton, gravitino, vector and spin-1/2 fermion mass states, L2M22, LM 3 , L2M12, LM 1 , above each of these vacua. This is not surprising, because these larger groups are not symmetries of these solutions In these cases, one can only form OSp(4|N ) multiplets KK level by KK level when the SO(8) in D = 11 [4] or SO(7) in type IIA [44] state content at each level has already been broken down to the actual residual symmetry group SU(3).
