Gauge Fields in (A)dSd and Connections of its symmetry algebra
نویسنده
چکیده
The generalized connections of the de Sitter algebra so(d, 1) and anti-de Sitter algebra so(d − 1, 2), which are differential forms of arbitrary degree with values in any irreducible (spin)-tensor representation of the (anti)-de Sitter algebra, are studied. It is shown that arbitrary-spin gauge field in (anti)-de Sitter space, massless or partially-massless, can be described by a single connection. A ’one-to-one’ correspondence between the connections of the (anti)-de Sitter algebra and the gauge fields is established. The gauge symmetry is manifest and auxiliary fields are automatically included in the formalism.

Non-commutative field theory as a theory including the Lorentz violation can be constructed in two different ways. In the first method, the non-commutative fields are the same as the ordinary ones while the gauge group is restricted to U(n). For example, the symmetry group of standard model in non-commutative space is U(3)×(2)×U(1) which can be reduced to SU(3)×SU(2)×U(1) by two appropriate spo...
متن کاملGeometric Formulation for Partially Massless Fields
The manifestly gauge invariant formulation for free symmetric higher-spin partially massless fields in (A)dSd is given in terms of gauge connections and linearized curvatures that take values in the irreducible representations of (o(d−1, 2)) o(d, 1) described by two-row Young tableaux, in which the lengths of the first and second row are, respectively, associated with the spin and depth of part...
متن کاملGauge Field Theory of Horizontal Symmetry Generated by a Central Extension of the Pauli Algebra
The standard model of particle physics is generalized so as to be furnished with a horizontal symmetry generated by an intermediate algebra between simple Lie algebras su(2) and su(3). Above a certain high-energy scale Λ̆, the horizontal gauge symmetry is postulated to hold so that the basic fermions, i.e., quarks and leptons, form its fundamental triplets, and a triplet and singlet of the horiz...
متن کاملDual Brst Symmetry for Qed
We show the existence of a co(dual)-BRST symmetry for the usual BRST invariant Lagrangian density of an Abelian gauge theory in two dimensions of space-time where a U(1) gauge field is coupled to the Noether conserved current (constructed by the Dirac fields). Under this new symmetry, it is the gauge-fixing term that remains invariant and the symmetry transformations on the Dirac fields are ana...
