AdS brane calibrations from Exceptional Sasaki Einstein structures

AdS brane calibrations from Exceptional Sasaki Einstein structures

The goal of the seminar is to describe how generalised calibrations can be described by Exceptional Sasaki-Einstein structures on AdS backgrounds in type IIB and M-theory. The inequalities for the energy bound are derived by decomposing a $kappa$-symmetry condition. After a general picture about supersymmetry and calibration forms, there will be a focus on how the closure of the calibration forms is related to the integrability conditions of the Exceptional Sasaki-Einstein structure, in particular for AdS space-filling or point-like branes. Doing so, the main result of the seminar will be given, that is the form parts of the twisted vector structure in M-theory and type IIB provide generalised calibrations.
