Emergent fracton strings from covariant bi-form gauge field theory
Erica Bertolini, Hyungrok Kim, Giandomenico Palumbo
We present a covariant field-theoretical framework for a rank-4 tensor gauge field theory describing fractonic string-like objects. We show that the most general quadratic, parity-…
Notes from the bulk
Erica Bertolini
The scope of this Ph.D thesis is to study the effects of the presence of a boundary from a Quantum Field Theoretical perspective, searching for new physics and explanations of obse…
Covariant Interacting Fractons
Erica Bertolini, Hyungrok Kim
We show that there exists a natural analogue of the Yang-Mills equations using the Frölicher-Nijenhuis bracket between vector-valued differential forms. The gauge field is a rank-t…
Strings as Hyper-Fractons
Erica Bertolini, Hyungrok Kim
We systematically examine all possible Gauss laws obeying spatial rotation symmetry, characterising the corresponding conserved charges. In the case of conserved higher moments, th…
