Conformal Renormalisation of 8D Einstein Gravity
Giorgos Anastasiou, Ignacio J. Araya, Nicolas Boulanger +2
We show that Holographic Renormalisation (HR) in eight dimensions is encoded in the unique conformal gravity theory that admits an Einstein sector with constant negative curvature.…
Higher dualities in exceptional field theory
Guillaume Bossard, Nicolas Boulanger, Josh O'Connor
It was proposed that there exists an -invariant formulation of eleven-dimensional supergravity in which the propagating fields of the theory are realised through an infinit…
The complete action for de Sitter pure supergravity
Nicolas Boulanger, Vasileios A. Letsios, Sylvain Thomée
Supergravity theories in de Sitter spacetime are known to be very constrained, and rather unnatural within String/M Theory. We revisit the seminal paper by Pilch, van Nieuwenhuizen…
8D conformal gravity with Einstein sector, and its relation to the Q-curvature
Nicolas Boulanger, Davide Rovere
We first streamline the construction of the unique six-dimensional conformal gravity action found by Lü, Pang and Pope, that admits Einstein metrics as solutions to the field equat…
Kinematical Lie algebras and symplectic symmetric spaces I: Lie algebraic aspects
Pierre Bieliavsky, Nicolas Boulanger
We generalize the notion of kinematical Lie algebra introduced in physics for the classification of the various possible relativity algebras an isotropic spacetime can accommodate.…
A note on partially massless supergravity
Nicolas Boulanger, Guillaume Lhost, Sylvain Thomée
We analyse the couplings of a partially massless spin-2 field with a doublet of massless, real spin-3/2 fields. In the flat limit, this spectrum coincides with the spectrum of ${\c…
Cubic interactions for massless and partially massless spin-1 and spin-2 fields
Nicolas Boulanger, Sebastian Garcia-Saenz, Songsong Pan +1
We perform a complete classification of the consistent two-derivative cubic couplings for a system containing an arbitrary number of massless spin-1, massless spin-2, and partially…
Strange higher-spin topological systems in 3D
Nicolas Boulanger, Andrea Campoleoni, Victor Lekeu +1
Motivated by the generation of action principles from off-shell dualisation, we present a general class of free, topological theories in three dimensional Minkowski spacetime that…
Consistent couplings between a massive spin-3/2 field and a partially massless spin-2 field
Nicolas Boulanger, Guillaume Lhost, Sylvain Thomée
We revisit the problem of constructing consistent interactions between a massive spin-3/2 field and a partially massless graviton in four-dimensional (A)dS spacetime. We use the St…
A First-Quantized Model For Unparticles and Gauge Theories Around Conformal Window
N. Boulanger, F. Buisseret, G. Lhost
We first quantize the action proposed by Casalbuoni and Gomis in [Phys. Rev. D \textbf{90}, 026001 (2014)], an action that describes two massless relativistic scalar particles inte…
