Abstract We discuss consistent truncations of eleven-dimensional supergravity on a six-dimensional manifold M, preserving minimal $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 supersymmetry in five dimensions. These are based on GS ⊆ USp(6) structures for the generalised E6(6) tangent bundle on M, such that the intrinsic torsion is a constant GS singlet. We spell out the algorithm defining the full bosonic truncation ansatz and then apply this formalism to consistent truncations that contain warped AdS5×wM solutions arising from M5-branes wrapped on a Riemann surface. The generalised U(1) structure associated with the $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 solution of Maldacena-Nuñez leads to five-dimensional supergravity with four vector multiplets, one hypermultiplet and SO(3) × U(1) × ℝ gauge group. The generalised structure associated with “BBBW” solutions yields two vector multiplets, one hypermultiplet and an abelian gauging. We argue that these are the most general consistent truncations on such backgrounds.

Abstract We construct consistent Kaluza-Klein truncations of type IIA supergravity on (i) Σ2 × S3 and (ii) Σ3 × S3, where Σ2 = S2/Γ, ℝ2/Γ, or ℍ2/Γ, and Σ3 = S3/Γ, ℝ3/Γ, or ℍ3/Γ, with Γ a discrete group of symmetries, corresponding to NS5-branes wrapped on Σ2 and Σ3. The resulting theories are a D = 5, $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 4 gauged supergravity coupled to three vector multiplets with scalar manifold SO(1, 1) × SO(5, 3)/(SO(5) × SO(3)) and gauge group SO(2) × (SO(2) $$ {\ltimes}_{\Sigma_2} $$ ⋉ Σ 2 ℝ4) which depends on the curvature of Σ2, and a D = 4, $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 gauged supergravity coupled to one vector multiplet and two hypermultiplets with scalar manifold SU(1, 1)/U(1) × G2(2)/SO(4) and gauge group ℝ+ × ℝ+ for truncations (i) and (ii) respectively. Instead of carrying out the truncations at the 10-dimensional level, we show that they can be obtained directly by performing Inönü-Wigner contractions on the 5 and 4-dimensional gauged supergravity theories that come from consistent truncations of 11-dimensional supergravity associated with M5-branes wrapping Σ2 and Σ3. This suggests the existence of a broader class of lower-dimensional gauged supergravity theories related by group contractions that have a 10 or 11-dimensional origin.
