Lorentz Symmetry of Supermembrane in Light Cone Gauge Formulation
Kiyoshi Ezawa, Yutaka Matsuo, Koichi Murakami
We prove the Lorentz symmetry of supermembrane theory in the light cone gauge to complete the program initiated by de Wit, Marquard and Nicolai. We give some comments on extending…
Osp(1|2) Chern-Simons gauge theory as 2D N=1 Induced Supergravity
Kiyoshi Ezawa, Atushi Ishikawa
We demonstrate the close relationship between Chern-Simons gauge theory with gauge group Osp(1|2) and N=1 induced supergravity in two dimensions. More precisely, the inner product…
Nonperturbative solutions for canonical quantum gravity: an overview
Kiyoshi Ezawa
In this paper we will make a survey of solutions to the Wheeler-Dewitt equation which have been found up to now in Ashtekar's formulation for canonical quantum gravity. Roughly spe…
Ashtekar's formulation for supergravities as "constrained" BF theories
Kiyoshi Ezawa
It is known that Ashtekar's formulation for pure Einstein gravity can be cast into the form of a topological field theory, namely the BF theory, with the B-fields subject t…
Multi-plaquette solutions for discretized Ashtekar gravity
Kiyoshi Ezawa
A discretized version of canonical quantum gravity proposed by Loll is investigated. After slightly modifying Loll's discretized Hamiltonian constraint, we encode its action on the…
Combinatorial solutions to the Hamiltonian constraint in (2+1)-dimensional Ashtekar gravity
Kiyoshi Ezawa
Dirac's quantization of the (2+1)-dimensional analog of Ashtekar's approach to quantum gravity is investigated. After providing a diffeomorphism-invariant regularization of the Ham…
