Nontrivial constitutive laws and unified structures in constrained BF theory
Priidik Gallagher
Does a nontrivial gravitational excitation require a modified internal gauge theory constitutive law? As there is no canonical mapping between differential forms valued in distinct…

Canonical aspects of pregeometric vector-based first order gauge theory
Priidik Gallagher
A recently proposed pregeometric auxiliary vector mediated gauge theory is studied in its canonical domain, by performing the Legendre transform on a curved background and by consi…

Consistent first order action functional for gauge theories
Priidik Gallagher, Tomi S. Koivisto, Luca Marzola +2
A novel first order action principle has been proposed as the possible foundation for a more fundamental theory of General Relativity and the Standard Model. It is shown in this ar…
