Off-shell structure of twisted (2,0) theory

Abstract

A QQ-exact off-shell action is constructed for twisted abelian (2,0) theory on a Lorentzian six-manifold of the form M1,5=C×M4M_{1,5} = C\times M_4, where CC is a flat two-manifold and M4M_4 is a general Euclidean four-manifold. The properties of this formulation, which is obtained by introducing two auxiliary fields, can be summarised by a commutative diagram where the Lagrangian and its stress-tensor arise from the QQ-variation of two fermionic quantities VV and λμν\lambda^{\mu\nu}. This completes and extends the analysis in [arXiv:1311.3300].
