Circle reduction of eleven-dimensional supergravity
ID: circle-reduction-of-eleven-dimensional-supergravity
For circle-independent fields, the metric gives the type-IIA string-frame metric, dilaton and RR one-form. Decomposing gives the RR three-form and Kalb–Ramond field. With , , the horizontal four-form is . The Einstein term reduces, modulo a total derivative, to . The eleven-dimensional form norm gives , where . Ordinary reduction generates massless type IIA supergravity, not Romans mass.
