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…

Raising galaxy rotation curves via dressing

J. François, L. Ravera

We present a manifestly diffeomorphism-invariant simple model of galaxy dynamics obtained by applying the Dressing Field Method (DFM) to a general-relativistic system comprising th…

Mechanics as a general-relativistic gauge field theory, and Relational Quantization

J. François, L. Ravera

We treat the Mechanics of point particles as a 1-dimensional general-relativistic gauge field theory, which may be referred to as Mechanical Field Theory (MFT), exploiting the bund…

What Price Fiber Bundle Substantivalism? On How to Avoid Holes in Fibers

Philipp Berghofer, Jordan François, Lucrezia Ravera

On a mathematically foundational level, our most successful physical theories (gauge field theories and general-relativistic theories) are formulated in a framework based on the di…

Reassessing the foundations of Metric-Affine Gravity

J. François, L. Ravera

We reassess foundational aspects of Metric-Affine Gravity (MAG) in light of the Dressing Field Method, a tool allowing to systematically build gauge-invariant field variables. To g…

Spacetime boundaries do not break diffeomorphism and gauge symmetries

J. François, L. Ravera

In General Relativity and gauge field theory, one often encounters a claim, which may be called the boundary problem, according to which "boundaries break diffeomorphism and gauge…

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…

Relational bundle geometric formulation of non-relativistic quantum mechanics

J. François, L. Ravera

We present a bundle geometric formulation of non-relativistic many-particles Quantum Mechanics. A wave function is seen to be a -valued cocyclic tensorial 0-form on con…
