Symmetric backgrounds of type IIB supergravity    [PDF]

José Figueroa-O'Farrill, Noel Hustler

In this paper we study homogeneous backgrounds of type IIB supergravity where the underlying geometry is that of a symmetric space. We determine which ten-dimensional lorentzian symmetric spaces (up to local isometry) admit such backgrounds and in about two thirds of the cases we determine fully their moduli space.
