Description

We report on the formulation of N factorial=factorial 2, D factorial=factorial 4 supergravity coupled to nV abelian vector multiplets in presence of electric and magnetic charges. General formulae for the (moduli dependent) electric and magnetic charges for the nV + 1 gauge fields are given which reflect the sympletic structure of the underlying special geometry. Model independent sum rules obeyed by these charges are obtained. The specification to Type IIB strings compactified on Calabi-Yau manifolds, with gauge group U(1)h21+1 is given. (author)
