A note on the asymptotic symmetries of electromagnetism
Oscar Fuentealba, Marc Henneaux, Cédric Troessaert
We extend the asymptotic symmetries of electromagnetism in order to consistently include angle-dependent gauge transformations that involve terms growing at spatial infi…
Logarithmic supertranslations and supertranslation-invariant Lorentz charges
Oscar Fuentealba, Marc Henneaux, Cédric Troessaert
We extend the BMS(4) group by adding logarithmic supertranslations. This is done by relaxing the boundary conditions on the metric and its conjugate momentum at spatial infinity in…
Asymptotic structure of the gravitational field in five spacetime dimensions: Hamiltonian analysis
Oscar Fuentealba, Marc Henneaux, Javier Matulich +1
We develop the analysis of the asymptotic properties of gravity in higher spacetime dimensions , with a particular emphasis on the case . Our approach deals with spatial in…
The Bondi-Metzner-Sachs group in five spacetime dimensions
Oscar Fuentealba, Marc Henneaux, Javier Matulich +1
We study asymptotically flat spacetimes in five spacetime dimensions by Hamiltonian methods, focusing on spatial infinity and keeping all asymptotically relevant nonlinearities in…
