چکیده

We perform an in-depth analysis of the transformation rules under duality for couplings theories containing multiple scalars, $p$-form gauge fields, linearized gravitons or $(p,1)$ mixed symmetry tensors. Following a similar reasoning to derivation Buscher string background fields T-duality, we show that all classes aforementioned multi-field transform according one two sets rules. These comprise ordinary and their higher counterpart; this is generic feature in spacetime dimensions where field strength its dual are same degree. Our takes into account topological theta terms generalized $B$-fields, whose behavior carefully tracked. For 1-form graviton 4D, reduces inversion complexified coupling metric electric/magnetic duality. Moreover, write down action gravity presence $\theta$-term from which obtain previously suggested on-shell double relations. This also provides explanation origin gravitational relations as specific additional sector action.

Duality and integrability: Electromagnetism, linearized gravity and massless higher spin gauge fields as bi-Hamiltonian systems

In the reduced phase space of electromagnetism, the generator of duality rotations in the usual Poisson bracket is shown to generate Maxwell’s equations in a second, much simpler Poisson bracket. This gives rise to a hierarchy of bi-Hamiltonian evolution equations in the standard way. The result can be extended to linearized Yang-Mills theory, linearized gravity and massless higher spin gauge f...

Issues of Duality in Abelian Gauge Theory and in Linearized Gravity

We start by describing two of the main proposals for duality in Abelian gauge theories, namely F (ield strength)-duality approach and the S-duality formalism. We then discuss how F -duality and S-duality can be applied to the case of linearized gravity. By emphasizing the similarities and differences between these two type of dualities we explore the possibility of combining them in just one du...

Linearized Gravity as a Gauge Theory

We discuss linearized gravity from the point of view of a gauge theory. In (3+1)dimensions our analysis allows to consider linearized gravity in the context of the MacDowell-Mansouri formalism. Our observations may be of particular interest in the strong-weak coupling duality for linearized gravity, in Randall-Sundrum brane world scenario and in Ashtekar formalism.

Duality in Gravity and Higher Spin Gauge Fields

Dual field theory realisations are given for linearised gravity in terms of gauge fields in exotic representations of the Lorentz group. The field equations and dual representations are discussed for a wide class of higher spin gauge fields. For non-linear Einstein gravity, such transformations can be implemented locally in light-cone gauge, or partially implemented in the presence of a Killing...

Duality in linearized gravity and holography

We consider spherical gravitational perturbations of AdS4 space-time satisfying general boundary conditions at spatial infinity. Using the holographic renormalization method, we compute the energy-momentum tensor and show that it can always be cast in the form of Cotton tensor for a dual boundary metric. In particular, axial and polar perturbations obeying the same boundary conditions for the e...
