Abstract
It is seen that a nonlinear sigma model based on the noncompact coset space SU(1,1)/U(1) can curl up two spatial dimensions into a topologically noncompact surface of finite area with a compact U(1) isometry group. This mechanism can be used for several higher-dimensional supergravity theories. In particular, chiral N = 2, D = 10 supergravity would reduce to an N = 1, D = 8 theory in which the masslessness of fermions does not depend only on supersymmetry. Further reduction to four dimensions is possible.
