| Description | We present decomposable (5, 6)-solutions M~1,4×M6 in eleven-dimensional supergravity by solving the bosonic supergravity equations for a variety of non-trivial flux forms. Many of the bosonic backgrounds presented here are induced by various types of null flux forms on products of certain totally Ricci-isotropic Lorentzian Walker manifolds and Ricci-flat Riemannian manifolds. These constructions provide an analogy of the work performed by Chrysikos and Galaev [Classical Quantum Gravity 37, 125004 (2020)], who made similar computations for decomposable (6, 5)-solutions. We also present bosonic backgrounds that are products of Lorentzian Einstein manifolds with a negative Einstein constant (in the “mostly plus” convention) and Riemannian Kähler–Einstein manifolds with a positive Einstein constant. This conclusion generalizes a result of Pope and van Nieuwenhuizen [Commun. Math. Phys. 122, 281–292 (1989)] concerning the appearance of six-dimensional Kähler–Einstein manifolds in eleven-dimensional supergravity. In this setting, we construct infinitely many non-symmetric decomposable (5, 6)-supergravity backgrounds by using the infinitely many Lorentzian Einstein–Sasakian structures with a negative Einstein constant on the 5-sphere, known from the work of Boyer et al. [Commun. Math. Phys. 262, 177–208 (2006)]. |
