AB - <jats:p> Conformal supergravity provides an effective off-shell formalism to study higher derivative actions. We show that the <a:math xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <a:mrow> <a:mi>D</a:mi> <a:mo>=</a:mo> <a:mn>4</a:mn> </a:mrow> </a:math> , <c:math xmlns:c="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <c:mi mathvariant="script">N</c:mi> <c:mo>=</c:mo> <c:mn>2</c:mn> </c:math> theory admits equivariantly closed forms. These may be used to compute closed-form expressions for supersymmetric observables in a general class of supergravity theories with higher derivative couplings, without any need to solve equations of motion. We discuss applications to holography, presenting results for on-shell actions that are conjecturally valid to all orders in the perturbative <f:math xmlns:f="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <f:mn>1</f:mn> <f:mo>/</f:mo> <f:mi>N</f:mi> </f:math> expansion. </jats:p>

Note to staff:  Adding new publications to a research group

  1. Log in to Symplectic.
  2. Click on Menu > Create Links
  3. Choose what you want to create links between – in this case ‘Publications’ and ‘Organisational structures’.
  4. Choose the organisational structure (research group) into which you want to link the publications and check the box next to it.
  5. Now check the box of any publication you want to add to that group. You can use the filters to find what you want and select multiple publications if necessary. 
  6. Scroll to the bottom and click the blue ‘Create new link’ button to link them.
  7. The publications will be added to the group, and will be displayed on the group publications feed within 24 hours (it is not immediate).

Any problems, talk to Tim Evans or the Faculty Web Team.
