Fibre bundle generated theory of higher dimensional gravity
Theo Verwimp
With the help of Weil polynomials on the Lie algebra of the Poincaré group in D dimensions, we construct a Lagrangian form for higher dimensional gravity on a principal fibre bundl…
Unified prescription for the generation of electroweak and gravitational gauge field Lagrangian on a principal fiber bundle
Theo Verwimp
The Glashow-Weinberg-Salam gauge field Lagrangian for electroweak theory and the Townsend-Zardecki action for gravitation are obtained from the same type of Yang-Mills Weil form on…
On higher dimensional gravity: the Lagrangian, its dimensional reduction and a cosmological model
Theo Verwimp
By dimensional reduction of the Lovelock Lagrangian, effective four-dimensional field equations and expressions for the cosmological and gravitational constants are obtained. A cos…
Boundary terms in Lovelock gravity from dimensionally continued Chern-Simons forms
Theo Verwimp
Boundary terms for Lovelock gravity are obtained by calculating in arbitrary dimension the index theorem for the de Rham complex of a manifold with nonempty boundary.
On Generating a Lagrangian for Higher Dimensional Gravity
Theo Verwimp
The Lovelock Lagrangian is for even dimension D obtained from Weil polynomials on the Lie algebra of the Lorentz group SO(1,D-1). The procedure for generating it is related to the…
Anti-de Sitter gauge theory for gravity
Theo Verwimp
First a review is given of Riemann-Cartan space-time and Einstein-Cartan gravity. This gives us the necessary tools to handle the SO(2,3) Yang-Mills gauge theory for gravity. Field…
