Cartan geometry, supergravity, and group manifold approach
J. François, L. Ravera
We make a case for the unique relevance of Cartan geometry for gauge theories of gravity and supergravity. We introduce our discussion by recapitulating historical threads, providi…
The dressing field method for diffeomorphisms: a relational framework
Jordan T. Francois Andre
The dressing field method is a tool to reduce gauge symmetries. Here we extend it to cover the case of diffeomorphisms. The resulting framework is a systematic scheme to produce Di…
Twisted Gauge Fields
Jordan François
We propose a generalisation of the notion of associated bundles to a principal bundle constructed via group action cocycles rather than via mere representations of the structure gr…
The dressing field method of gauge symmetry reduction, a review with examples
J. Attard, J. François, S. Lazzarini +1
Gauge symmetries are a cornerstone of modern physics but they come with technical difficulties when it comes to quantization, to accurately describe particles phenomenology or to e…
Tractors and Twistors from conformal Cartan geometry: a gauge theoretic approach II. Twistors
Jordan François, Jeremy Attard
Tractors and Twistors bundles both provide natural conformally covariant calculi on -Riemannian manifolds. They have different origins but are closely related, and usually cons…
Tractors and Twistors from conformal Cartan geometry: a gauge theoretic approach I. Tractors
Jeremy Attard, Jordan François
Tractors and Twistors bundles both provide natural conformally covariant calculi on -Riemannian manifolds. They have different origins but are closely related, and usually cons…
BRST structure for the mixed Weyl-diffeomorphism residual symmetry
Jordan François, Serge Lazzarini, Thierry Masson
In this paper, we show the compatibility of the so-called "dressing field method", which allows a systematic reduction of gauge symmetries, with the inclusion of diffeomorphisms in…
