Gravity and electroweak sector from symmetry breaking of an $SO(3,3)$ BF theory

P Samuel Wesley, Tejinder P. Singh, J. M. Isidro

An $SO(3,3)$ BF-type gauge theory is formulated on a six-dimensional spacetime of split signature $(3,3)$, interpreted as the pre-electroweak-symmetry-breaking phase. A MacDowell--…
