Title: Classifying consistent truncations from Exceptional Generalised Geometry

Abstract: Consistent truncations have proven to be one of the main tools to study low-dimensional effective theories of string theories. In this talk, I will discuss how new U-duality covariant formulations of higher-dimensional supergravities, Exceptional Generalised Geometries (EGG) and Exceptional Field Theories (ExFT), can be used to classify the possible consistent truncations that can be obtained from such higher-dimensional supergravities.
