Higher Dressing and Shift-Invariance in 4D Topological BF Theory
J. François, L. Ravera
A characteristic feature of topological field theories is the absence of local propagating degrees of freedom. In four-dimensional BF theory with cosmological term, we make this fe…
Torsional Carroll Gravity
P. Concha, N. Merino, L. Ravera +1
The ultra-relativistic (Carrollian) regime of gravity has recently emerged as a fertile framework for exploring holography, non-Lorentzian symmetries, and geometric limit of Genera…
Off-shell supersymmetry via manifest invariance
J. François, L. Ravera
A fundamental challenge in supersymmetric field theory is that supersymmetry transformations on field variables generally form an algebra only on-shell, i.e. upon imposing the fiel…
Relational Supersymmetry via the Dressing Field Method and Matter-Interaction Supergeometric Framework
J. François, L. Ravera
Relationality is the paradigmatic conceptual core of general-relativistic gauge field theory. It can be made manifest via the Dressing Field Method (DFM) of symmetry reduction, a s…
Unconventional Supersymmetry via the Dressing Field Method
J. François, L. Ravera
We re-construe unconventional supersymmetry, a notion introduced by Alvarez-Valenzuela-Zanelli (AVZ), as an attempt to use the framework of supersymmetric field theory to describe…
Boson-fermion algebraic mapping in second quantization
F. Lingua, D. M. Peñafiel, L. Ravera +1
We present an algebraic method to derive the structure at the basis of the mapping of bosonic algebras of creation and annihilation operators into fermionic algebras, and vice vers…
Dressing fields for supersymmetry: The cases of the Rarita-Schwinger and gravitino fields
J. François, L. Ravera
In this paper we argue that the gauge-fixing conditions typically used to extract the (off-shell) degrees of freedom of the Rarita-Schwinger spinor-vector and gravitino, respective…
