In this article, we present an integration of any real finite-dimensional Leibniz algebra as a Lie rack which reduces in the particular case of a Lie algebra to the ordinary connected simply connected Lie group. The construction is not…
In this work we revisit the $E_8\times\mathbb{R}^{+}$ generalised Lie derivative encoding the algebra of diffeomorphisms and gauge transformations of compactifications of M-theory on eight-dimensional manifolds, by extending certain…
Based on recent developments, in this letter we find 2+1 dimensional gauge theories with scale invariance and N=8 supersymmetry. The gauge theories are defined by a Lagrangian and are based on an infinite set of 3-algebras, constructed as…
We study a theory of gravity in which the action is a result from the general purely disformal transformation on the Einstein-Hilbert action. This theory is a sub-class of GLPV theory which is the the generalization of covariant Galileon.…
Diaconescu, Moore and Witten have shown that the topological part of the M-theory partition function is an invariant of an E8 gauge bundle over the 11-dimensional bulk. This presents a puzzle as an 11d gauge theory cannot exhibit linearly…
In this paper we construct a graded universal enveloping algebra of a $G$-graded Lie algebra, where $G$ is not necessarily an abelian group. If the grading group is abelian, then it coincides with the classical construction. We prove the…
We study the approach in which independent variables describing gravity are functions of the space-time embedding into a flat space of higher dimension. We formulate a canonical formalism for such a theory in a form, which requires imposing…
In this paper, we classify all unitary representations with non-zero Dirac cohomology for complex Lie group of Type E8. This completes the classification of Dirac series for all complex simple Lie groups.
We construct a graded Lie algebra in which a solution to the vacuum Einstein equations is any element of degree 1 whose bracket with itself is zero. Each solution generates a cochain complex, whose first cohomology is linearized gravity…
We construct a graded Lie algebra $\mathcal{E}$ in which the Maurer-Cartan equation is equivalent to the vacuum Einstein equations. The gauge groupoid is the groupoid of rank 4 real vector bundles with a conformal inner product, over a…
We consider the problem of existence of representations of topological groupoids on a principal bundle and the classification of such representations up to gauge transformation. Such representations naturally occur in various contexts such…
For d=10 N=1 SUGRA coupled to d=10 N=1 SYM, anomaly cancellation places severe constraints on the allowed gauge groups. Besides the ones known to appear in string theory, only U(1)^496 and E_8 x U(1)^248 are allowed. There are no known…
A model of representations of a Lie algebra is a representation which a direct sum of all irreducible finite dimensional representations taken with multiplicity $1$. In the paper an explicit construction of a model of representation for all…
We introduce a gauge and diffeomorphism invariant theory on the Yang-Mills phase space. The theory is well defined for an arbitrary gauge group with an invariant bilinear form, it contains only first class constraints, and the spacetime…
Quarks and leptons charges and interactions are derived from gauge theories associated with symmetries. Their space-time labels come from representations of the non-compact algebra of Special Relativity. Common to these descriptions are the…
By consireding 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…
The Poincar\'e group can be interpreted as the group of isometries of a minkowskian space. This point of view suggests to consider the group of isometries of a given space as the suitable group to construct a gauge theory of gravity. We…
We describe general classes of 6D and 4D F-theory models with gauge group $(\operatorname{SU}(3) \times \operatorname{SU}(2) \times \operatorname{U}(1)) / \mathbb{Z}_6$. We prove that this set of constructions gives all possible consistent…
The most general gravity Lagrangian in four dimensions contains three topological densities, namely Nieh-Yan, Pontryagin and Euler, in addition to the Hilbert-Palatini term. We set up a Hamiltonian formulation based on this Lagrangian. The…
We construct the well-known decomposition of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{e}_8$ into representations of $\mathfrak{e}_6\oplus\mathfrak{su}(3)$ using explicit matrix representations over pairs of division algebras. The minimal representation…
