In light of NANOGrav data we provide for the first time possible observational signatures of Superstring theory. Firstly, we work with inflection-point inflationary potentials naturally realised within Wess-Zumino type no-scale Supergravity, which give rise to the formation of microscopic primordial black holes (PBHs) triggering an early matter-dominated era (eMD) and evaporating before Big Bang Nucleosythesis (BBN). Remarkably, we obtain an abundant production of primordial gravitational waves (PGW) at the frequency ranges of nHz, Hz and kHz and in strong agreement with Pulsar Time Array (PTA) GW data. This PGW background could serve as a compelling observational signature for the presence of quantum gravity via no-scale Supergravity.
We classify all supersymmetric solutions of minimal D=4 gauged supergravity with (2,2) signature and a positive cosmological constant which admit exactly one Killing spinor. This classification produces a geometric structure which is more general than that found for previous classifications of N=2 supersymmetric solutions of this theory. We illustrate how the N=2 solutions which consist of a fibration over a 3-dimensional Lorentzian Gauduchon-Tod base space can be written in terms of this more generic geometric structure.
We construct N=2 four and five-dimensional supergravity theories coupled to vector multiplets in various space-time signatures (t,s), where t and s refer, respectively, to the number of time and spatial dimensions. The five-dimensional supergravity theories, t+s=5, are constructed by investigating the integrability conditions arising from Killing spinor equations. The five-dimensional supergravity theories can also be obtained by reducing Hull's eleven-dimensional supergravities on a Calabi-Yau threefold. The dimensional reductions of the five-dimensional supergravities on space and time-like …
Holography and Renormalization in Lorentzian Signature
De Boer et.等人发现了(d+1)维渐近反de Sitter空间中超引力的Hamilton-Jacobi方程与对偶d维扰动共形场论的Callan-Symanzik方程之间的渐近等价性。我们在洛伦兹签名中讨论这种对应。根据Marolf的构造方法,我们构造了初态和终态之间的关联函数的生成函数的引力对偶,并找到了一类结果具有经典超引力极限的态。我们展示了如何在场论中描述指定二阶超引力运动方程的全套解的数据,尽管运行耦合的重整化群方程具有一阶性质:必须指定耦合和状态,后者影响Callan-Symanzik方程的解。
We study the effect of supergravity corrections due to a linear and a bilinear term in the Kähler potential, in the context of a supersymmetric hybrid inflation model. By appropriate choice of the parameters associated to these terms, we are able to satisfy the main cosmological constraints for the spectral index $n_s$ and the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$. In addition, this model predicts primordial black hole abundance enough to account for the whole dark matter of the Universe and gravitational wave spectra within the reach of future detection experiments. The predictions of the model can be m…
We discuss general bosonic configurations of four-dimensional N=2 supergravity coupled to vector multiplets in (t,s) space-time. The supergravity theories with Euclidean and neutral signature are described by the so-called para-special Kähler geometry. For extremal solutions, we derive in a unified fashion, using the equations of motion, the flow equations for all space-time signatures. Demanding that the solutions with neutral and Euclidean signatures admit unbroken supersymmetry, we derive the constraints, known as the stabilisation equations, on the para-covariantly holomorphic sections exp…
Through timelike dualities, one can generate exotic versions of $M$-theory with different spacetime signatures. These are the $M^*$-theory with signature $(9,2,-)$, the $M'$-theory, with signature $(6,5,+)$ and the theories with reversed signatures $(1,10, -)$, $(2,9, +)$ and $(5,6, -)$. In $(s,t, \pm)$, $s$ is the number of space directions, $t$ the number of time directions, and $\pm$ refers to the sign of the kinetic term of the $3$ form. The only irreducible pseudo-riemannian manifolds admitting absolute parallelism are, besides Lie groups, the seven-sphere $S^7 \equiv SO(8)/SO(7)$ and its…
