We consider maximal gauged supergravity in 4D with the ISO(7) gauge group, which arises from a consistent truncation of massive IIA supergravity on a six-sphere. Within its G2-invariant sector, the theory is known to possess a supersymmetric AdS extremum, as well as two non-supersymmetric ones. In this context, we provide a first-order formulation of the theory by making use of the Hamilton–Jacobi (HJ) formalism. This allows us to derive a positive energy theorem for both non-supersymmetric…

Bubble instability of mIIA on AdS4 × S
We consider compactifications of massive IIA supergravity on a six-sphere. This setup is known to give rise to non-supersymmetric AdS4 vacua preserving SO(7) as well as G2 residual symmetry. Both…

The maximal D = 4 supergravities
All maximal supergravities in four space-time dimensions are presented. The ungauged Lagrangians can be encoded in an E_7(7)\Sp(56,R)/GL(28) matrix associated with the freedom of performing…

Non-compact gaugings from higher dimensions
The N=8 supergravity theories in four (and five) dimensions with non-compact gauge groups are obtained from eleven- (and ten-) dimensional supergravities in backgrounds with non-compact internal…
A swamp of non-SUSY vacua
A bstractWe consider known examples of non-supersymmetric AdS7 and AdS4 solutions arising from compactifications of massive type IIA supergravity and study their stability, taking into account the…

Fake supergravity and domain wall stability
We review the generalized Witten-Nester spinor stability argument for flat domain wall solutions of gravitational theories. Neither the field theory nor the solution need be supersymmetric. Nor is…
The String landscape, black holes and gravity as the weakest force
We conjecture a general upper bound on the strength of gravity relative to gauge forces in quantum gravity. This implies, in particular, that in a four-dimensional theory with gravity and a U(1)…
