Hidden Symmetries, Special Geometry and Quaternionic Manifolds
The moduli space of the Calabi-Yau three-folds, which play a role as superstring ground states, exhibits the same special geometry that is known from nonlinear sigma models in N = 2 supergravity theories. We discuss the symmetry structure of special real, complex and quaternionic spaces. Maps between these spaces are implemented via dimensional reduction. We analyze the emergence of extra and h...
متن کاملGauging the Octonion Algebra
By considering representation theory for non-associative algebras we construct the fundamental and adjoint representations of the octonion algebra. We then show how these representations by associative matrices allow a consistent octonionic gauge theory to be realized. We find that non-associativity implies the existence of new terms in the transformation laws of fields and the kinetic term of ...
متن کاملalmost-quaternionic Hermitian manifolds
In this note we prove that if the fundamental 4-form of an almost-quaternionic Hermitian manifold (M,Q, g) of dimension 4n ≥ 8 satisfies the conformal-Killing equation, then (M,Q, g) is quaternionic-Kähler.
متن کاملQuaternionic linear algebra and plurisubharmonic functions of quaternionic variables
Quaternionic linear algebra and plurisubharmonic functions of quaternionic variables. Abstract We remind known and establish new properties of the Dieudonné and Moore determinants of quaternionic matrices. Using these linear algebraic results we develop a basic theory of plurisubharmonic functions of quaternionic variables. The main point of this paper is that in quaternionic algebra and analys...
متن کاملHarmonic space and quaternionic manifolds
We find a principle of harmonic analyticity underlying the quaternionic (quaternionKähler) geometry and solve the differential constraints which define this geometry. To this end the original 4n-dimensional quaternionic manifold is extended to a biharmonic space. The latter includes additional harmonic coordinates associated with both the tangent local Sp(1) group and an extra rigid SU(2) group...
