Supergravity Backgrounds from Generalized Calabi-Yau Manifolds (Part 1) Speaker(s): Mariana Granas
Abstract: We will see how generalized Calabi-Yau manifolds as defined by Hitchin emerge from supersymmetry equations in type II theories. In the first lecture, we will review the formalism of G-structures, which is central in the context of compactification with fluxes. In the second lecture we will see how (... read more
