Self - Duality in Nonlinear Electromagnetism
We discuss duality invariant interactions between electromagnetic fields and matter. The case of scalar fields is treated in some detail. ∗Contribution to the memorial volume for D.V. Volkov. †This work was supported in part by the Director, Office of Energy Research, Office of High Energy and Nuclear Physics, Division of High Energy Physics of the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract DE-AC...
متن کاملSelf duality and soldering in odd dimensions
Using the recently developed soldering formalism we highlight certain featuers of quantum mechanical models. The complete correspondence between these models and self dual field theoretical models in odd dimensions is established. The distinction between self duality and self dual factorisation in these dimensions is clarified. ∗e-mail: [email protected] †e-mail: [email protected]
متن کاملConsistent nonlinear KK reduction of 11d supergravity on AdS7 × S4 and self-duality in odd dimensions
We show that there exists a consistent truncation of 11 dimensional supergravity to the ’massless’ fields of maximal (N=4) 7 dimensional gauged supergravity. We find the complete expressions for the nonlinear embedding of the 7 dimensional fields into the 11 dimensional fields, and check them by reproducing the d=7 susy transformation laws from the d=11 laws in various sectors. In particular we...
متن کاملSeiberg duality in three dimensions
We analyze three dimensional gauge theories with Sp gauge group. We find that in some regime the theory should be described in terms of a dual theory, very much in the spirit of Seiberg duality in four dimensions. This duality does not coincide with mirror symmetry. ∗Work supported by DFG
متن کاملPoincaré Duality in Low Dimensions
The following notes were prepared for a minicourse given at Agua de Lindoias, S.P., Brazil, in 2012, and have been only mildly updated. The goal of the course was to show how Poincaré duality imposes contraints on and interactions between the two most basic invariants of algebraic topology, namely, the Euler characteristic χ(M) and the fundamental group π1(M), for manifolds M of dimension 3 or ...
