Octonionic Aspects of Supergravity

An Octonionic Gauge Theory

The nonassociativity of the octonion algebra necessitates a bimodule representation, in which each element is represented by a left and a right multiplier. This representation can then be used to generate gauge transformations for the purpose of constructing a field theory symmetric under a gauged octonion algebra, the nonassociativity of which appears as a failure of the representation to clos...

Topological Aspects in Non - Abelian Gauge Theory

We discuss the BRST cohomology and exhibit a connection between the Hodge decomposition theorem and the topological properties of a two dimensional free non-Abelian gauge theory having no interaction with matter fields. The topological nature of this theory is encoded in the vanishing of the Laplacian operator when equations of motion are exploited. We obtain two sets of topological invariants ...

Superfield approach to topological aspects of non - Abelian gauge theory

We discuss some of the key topological features of a two (1 + 1)-dimensional (2D) self-interacting non-Abelian gauge theory (having no interaction with matter fields) in the framework of superfield formalism. We provide the geometrical interpretation for the Lagrangian density, symmetric energy momentum tensor, topological invariants, etc., by exploiting the on-shell nilpotent BRST-and co-BRST ...
