A heterotic Kodaira-Spencer theory at one-loop
Anthony Ashmore, Javier José Murgas Ibarra, David Duncan McNutt +4
We consider a heterotic version of six-dimensional Kodaira-Spencer gravity derived from the heterotic superpotential. We compute the one-loop partition function and find it can be…
Generalized Teleparallel de Sitter geometries
Alan A. Coley, Alexandre Landry, Robert J. van den Hoogen +1
Theories of gravity based on teleparallel geometries are characterized by the torsion, which is a function of the coframe, derivatives of the coframe, and a zero curvature and metr…
A frame based approach to computing symmetries with non-trivial isotropy groups
D. D. McNutt, A. A. Coley, R. J. van den Hoogen
A frame approach to determining the most general solution admitting a desired symmetry group has been examined previously in Riemannian and teleparallel geometries with some succes…
Scalar Curvature Invariants in Classical and Quantum Gravity
B. Shakerin, D. D. McNutt, B. Mattingly +8
A short review of scalar curvature invariants in gravity theories is presented. We introduce how these invariants are constructed and discuss the minimal number of invariants requi…
Geometric Horizons: A Frame Approach
A. A. Coley, D. D. McNutt
In the numerical investigation of the physical merger of two black holes, it is crucial to locate a black hole locally. This is usually done utilizing an apparent horizon. An alter…
Teleparallel geometries not characterized by their scalar polynomial torsion invariants
D. D. McNutt, A. A. Coley, R. J. van den Hoogen
A teleparallel geometry is an n-dimensional manifold equipped with a frame basis and an independent spin connection. For such a geometry, the curvature tensor vanishes and the tors…
