| contents | These notes are based on lectures given at the XIX Modave School on Mathematical Physics and present an introduction to Exceptional Field Theory. We cover the standard Kaluza-Klein reductions on tori, with applications to supergravity. We review the supergravity action of type IIA/IIB and eleven-dimensional supergravities. We motivate the appearance of the hidden symmetry groups $\mathrm{E}_{d(d)}$ through the lens of string dualities. We explore the construction and properties of $\mathrm{E}_{7(7)}$-ExFT and review other $\mathrm{E}_{d(d)}$-ExFT for $3\leq d\leq 8$, as well as double field theories. These notes conclude with some applications of ExFT to consistent truncations. |
