چکیده
We give a review of some recent developments in the quantisation of W-gravity theories. In particular, we discuss the construction of anomaly-free W ∞ and W 3 gravities.

Fault Strike Detection Using Satellite Gravity Data Decomposition by Discrete Wavelets: A Case Study from Iran
Estimating the gravity anomaly causative bodies boundary can facilitate the gravity field interpretation. In this paper, 2D discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is employed as a method to delineate the boundary of the gravity anomaly sources. Hence, the GRACE’ satellite gravity data is decomposed using DWT. DWT decomposites a single approximation coefficients into four distinct components: the appr...
متن کاملQED from six-dimensional vortex and gauge anomalies
Starting from an anomaly-free Abelian Higgs model coupled to gravity in a 6-dimensional space-time we construct an effective four-dimensional theory of charged fermions interacting with U(1) Abelian gauge field and gravity, both localised near the core of a Nielsen-Olesen vortex configuration. We show that an anomaly free theory in 6-dimensions can give rise to an anomalous theory in D=4, which...
متن کاملExtensions of 2d Gravity * †
Conformally invariant theories in two dimensions play an important role in the study of string theories, second order phase transitions and integrable systems. The Virasoro algebra and its extensions form the cornerstone of conformal field theories. More recently a lot of attention was devoted to the study of a particular class of conformal field theories: gravity in two dimensions. As I will s...

We show that an anomaly-free description of matter in (1+1) dimensions requires a correction of the 2d relativity principle, which is connected to a noncommutativity of 2d Minkowski space that introduces a 2d Planck length. Then, in order to dynamically describe this noncommutative structure of the tangent space, we propose to extend the usual 2d generalized dilaton gravity models by a non-stan...
متن کاملConformal Anomaly in 4D Gravity-Matter Theories Non-minimally Coupled with Dilaton
Abstract The conformal anomaly for 4D gravity-matter theories, which are non-minimally coupled with the dilaton, is systematically studied. Special care is taken for: rescaling of fields, treatment of total derivatives, hermiticity of the system operator and choice of measure. Scalar, spinor and vector fields are taken as the matter quantum fields and their explicit conformal anomalies in the g...
