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.
متن کاملThe Higgs boson as a gauge field in extra dimensions
I review, at a general non-technical level, the main properties of models in extra dimensions where the Higgs field is identified with some internal component of a gauge field. The Standard Model of fundamental interactions (SM) represents the best theory at our disposal to describe all high-energy processes we know so far. Most likely, however, it cannot be the final description of Nature. Gra...
متن کاملGauge Theory of Gravity
The quantum gravity is formulated based on principle of local gauge invariance. The model discussed in this paper has local gravitational gauge symmetry and gravitational field appears as gauge field. The problems on quantization and renormalization of the theory are also discussed in this paper. In leading order approximation, the gravitational gauge field theory gives out classical Newton’s t...
متن کاملGravity and Gauge Theory∗
Gauge theories are theories that are invariant under a characteristic group of gauge transformations. General relativity is invariant under transformations of the diffeomorphism group. This has prompted many philosophers and physicists to treat general relativity as a gauge theory, and diffeomorphisms as gauge transformations. I argue that this approach is misguided. The theories of three of ...
متن کاملQuantum Gravity as Topological Quantum Field Theory
The physics of quantum gravity is discussed within the framework of topological quantum field theory. Some of the principles are illustrated with examples taken from theories in which space-time is three dimensional.
