  • The Sen action for self-dual fields has been generalised by Hull to include two metrics which allows it to be defined on generic manifolds. In this paper we consider Kaluza-Klein compactifications of this action. The existence of two metrics presents novel challenges as there are two Kaluza-Klein towers of fields. We show that to find a consistent truncation one must include zero-modes associated to each of the two towers. Although this naively leads to a doubling of the massless degrees of freedom we show that on-shell this is not the case. We also discuss a deformation of the Sen action to include an additional form-field but which does not lead to new degrees of freedom on-shell but which arises naturally upon compactification.
