Gauge-covariant Hadamard descent in Yang-Mills theory
Lucio Vacchiano, Goffredo Chirco, Saverio Pascazio +1
We study the dimensional reduction of non-Abelian Yang-Mills theory from five to four dimensions. In this framework, Hadamard descent is formulated as a restriction to gauge-equiva…

Dimensional reduction of AdS3 Chern-Simons gravity: Schwarzian and affine boundary theories
Goffredo Chirco, Lucio Vacchiano, Patrizia Vitale
We study a symmetry-reduced sector of gravity formulated as an Chern--Simons theory on a three-dimensional manifold with toroidal boundary. The reduction is imple…
