Abstract
Among the research directions that we have presented during the Workshop SQS’2011, we have chosen to discuss here in some detail the derivation of the effective action in four dimensions of the tendimensional N = 1 heterotic supergravity coupled to N = 1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills resulting from the dimensional reduction over nearly-Kähler manifolds.
