Superpotential of three dimensional N = 1 heterotic supergravity

Abstract: We dimensionally reduce the ten dimensional heterotic action on spacetimes of the form

{c a l M}_{(2, 1)} i m e s Y

, where

{c a l M}_{(2, 1)}

is three dimensional maximally symmetric Anti de Sitter or Minkowski space, and

Y

is a compact seven dimensional manifold with

G_{2}

structure. In doing so, we derive the real superpotential functional of the corresponding three dimensional

c a l N = 1

theory. We confirm that extrema of this functional precisely correspond to supersymmetric heterotic compactifications on manifolds of

G_{2}

structure. We make some comments on the role of the superpotential functional with respect to the coupled moduli problem of instanton bundles over

G_{2}

manifolds.
