Abstract

The geometry of the N=3" role="presentation">N=3, SO(4)-invariant, AdS₄ solution of massive type IIA supergravity that uplifts from the N=3" role="presentation">N=3 vacuum of D = 4 N=8" role="presentation">N=8 dyonic ISO(7) supergravity is investigated. Firstly, a D = 4, SO(4)-invariant restricted duality hierarchy is constructed and used to uplift the entire, dynamical SO(4)-invariant sector to massive type IIA. The resulting consistent uplift formulae are used to obtain a new local expression for the N=3" role="presentation">N=3 AdS₄ solution in massive IIA and analyse its geometry. Locally, the internal S⁶ geometry corresponds to a warped fibration of S² and a hemisphere of S⁴. This can be regarded as a warped generalisation of the usual twistor fibration geometry. Finally, the triplet of Killing spinors corresponding to the N=3" role="presentation">N=3 solution are constructed and shown to obey the massive type IIA Killing spinor equations.
