From Galilei to Euclidean Carroll and the Alice Particle: The Times They Are a-Changin'
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Luca Romano, Jan Rosseel +3
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…
The surprising structure of non-relativistic 11-dimensional supergravity
Eric A. Bergshoeff, Chris D. A. Blair, Johannes Lahnsteiner +1
We study a non-relativistic limit of 11-dimensional supergravity. This limit leads to a theory with an underlying membrane Newton-Cartan geometry. Consistency of the non-relativist…
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…
