Lifshitz solutions in supergravity and string theory

arXiv:1009.3445 · doi:10.1007/JHEP12(2010)047

Abstract

We derive Lifshitz configurations in string theory for general dynamical exponents z \geq 1. We begin by obtaining simple Li x Omega solutions to supergravities in diverse dimensions, with Omega a compact constant curvature manifold. Then we uplift the solutions to ten dimensions, providing configurations that correspond to warped compactifications in Type II string theory.
