Description
I will discuss how to classify (up to discrete identifications) all rigid 4D N=2 supersymmetric backgrounds
in both Lorentzian and Euclidean signatures that preserve eight real supercharges.
These include backgrounds such as warped $S^3 \times \mathbb R$,
warped $AdS_3 \times \mathbb R$, and $AdS_2 \times S^2$, as well as some more exotic
geometries. Time permitting, I will also discuss how to construct all
supersymmetric two-derivative actions involving hypermultiplets and
vector multiplets in these backgrounds.
