Supersymmetry and Supergravity (Qizhen College)
We construct supersymmetric field theories and supergravities in all dimensions and with an arbitrary number of supercharges by geometric means
and study their properties and physical applications. A large part of the course is dedicated to the geometry of Calabi-Yau moduli from the viewpoint of supergravity
