Pseudo-local Theories: A Functional Class Proposal

High Energy Physics - Theory 2016-11-23 v1 General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology

Abstract

In this article, using the language of jet space, we propose a functional class space for pseudo-local functionals. We test this functional class proposal in a number of examples ranging from string-field-theory to AdS/CFT dualities. Implications of the locality proposal at the quartic order are also discussed.
