Opening the Pandora's box of quantum spinor fields
L. Bonora, J. M. Hoff da Silva, R. da Rocha
Lounesto's classification of spinors is a comprehensive and exhaustive algorithm that, based on the bilinears covariants, discloses the possibility of a large variety of spinors, c…
Chern-Simons Invariants on Hyperbolic Manifolds and Topological Quantum Field Theories
Loriano Bonora, Andrey A. Bytsenko, Antonio E. Goncalves
We derive formulas for the classical Chern-Simons invariant of irreducible -flat connections on negatively curved locally symmetric three-manifolds. We determine the conditi…
New Spinor Fields on Lorentzian 7-Manifolds
L. Bonora, Roldao da Rocha
This paper deals with the classification of spinor fields according to the bilinear covariants in 7 dimensions. The previously investigated Riemannian case is characterized by eith…
Spinor Fields Classification in Arbitrary Dimensions and New Classes of Spinor Fields on 7-Manifolds
L. Bonora, K. P. S. de Brito, Roldao da Rocha
A classification of spinor fields according to the associated bilinear covariants is constructed in arbitrary dimensions and metric signatures, generalizing Lounesto's 4D spinor fi…
Ghost story. II. The midpoint ghost vertex
L. Bonora, C. Maccaferri, R. J. Scherer Santos +1
We construct the ghost number 9 three strings vertex for OSFT in the natural normal ordering. We find two versions, one with a ghost insertion at z=i and a twist-conjugate one with…
Fundamental strings in SFT
L. Bonora, C. Maccaferri, R. J. Scherer Santos +1
In this letter we show that vacuum string field theory contains exact solutions that can be interpreted as macroscopic fundamental strings. They are formed by a condensate of infin…
