From Galilei to Euclidean Carroll and the Alice Particle: The Times They Are a-Changin'
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Luca Romano, Jan Rosseel +2
In generalized, also known as -brane Galilei limits, the speed of light becomes infinite in the directions transverse to a -dimensional Lorentzian worldvolume. In thi…
Applied foliated conformal Carroll symmetries
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Patrick Concha, Octavio Fierro +2
We apply the conformal compensating technique for constructing matter couplings to conformal scalars on a -dimensional foliated conformal Carroll manifold dividing the tangent s…
A conformal approach to matter coupled Aristotelian gravity
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Giacomo Giorgi, Jan Rosseel +1
We show how to take the first step in the conformal program for constructing general matter couplings to Aristotelian gravity with arbitrary -brane foliation. For this purpose w…
Heterotic String Sigma Models: Discrete Light Cone Quantization and Its Current-Current Deformation
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Kevin T. Grosvenor, Luca Romano +1
We propose a two-dimensional superstring sigma model that defines a self-contained corner of heterotic string theory, whose second quantization is heterotic matrix string theory. T…
A brief history of supermembranes
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Ergin Sezgin, Paul K. Townsend
``When to the sessions of sweet silent thought I summon up re-membranes of things past, I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought''. (Apologies to William Shakespeare)
A Conformal Approach to Carroll Gravity
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Patrick Concha, Octavio Fierro +2
We show how to take the first step in the conformal program for constructing general matter couplings to Carroll gravity. In particular, we couple a single massless electric/magnet…
