Abstract: We classify solvable Lie groups admitting left invariant symplectic half-flat structure. When the Lie group has a compact quotient by a lattice, we show that these structures provide solutions of supersymmetric equations of type IIA.


Let \(\mathfrak {g}\) be a 6-dimensional real Lie algebra. Identify \(\mathfrak {g}^*\) with the left-invariant 1-forms on a Lie group whose Lie algebra is \(\mathfrak {g}\), so that the de Rham operator \(d\) acts on the exterior powers of \(\mathfrak {g}^*\). A symplectic half-flat structure on \(\mathfrak {g}\) is a pair \((F, \rho ) \in \wedge^2 \mathfrak {g}^* \times \wedge^3 \mathfrak {g}^*\), where \(F\) is symplectic and \(\rho\) is the real part of a complex volume form with respect to an almost complex structure, with additional compatible conditions on \(F\) and \(\rho\). The symplectic half-flat structures on nilpotent Lie algebras have been classified earlier. This article lists all the symplectic half-flat structures on solvable Lie algebras which are not nilpotent. In this way, it completes the classification of symplectic half-flat structures on solvable Lie algebras. As an application, it leads to the solutions of certain supersymmetric equations.
