Abstract
In this paper we consider compactifications of massive type IIA supergravity on manifolds with structure. We derive the gravitino mass matrix of the effective four-dimensional theory and show that vacuum expectation values of the scalar fields naturally induce spontaneous partial supersymmetry breaking. We go on to derive the superpotential and the Kähler potential for the resulting theories. As an example we consider the structure manifold and explicitly find supersymmetric minima where all the moduli are stabilized at nontrivial values without the use of nonperturbative effects.
