Hodge Duality and Supergravity
Leonardo Castellani, Pietro Antonio Grassi
The Hodge dual operator, recently introduced for supermanifolds, is used to reformulate super Yang-Mills and supergravity in . We first recall the definition of the Hodge dual…
Novel Free Differential Algebras for Supergravity
Pietro Antonio Grassi
We develop the theory of Free Integro-Differential Algebras (FIDA) extending the powerful technique of Free Differential Algebras constructed by D. Sullivan. We extend the analysis…
Remarks on the Integral Form of D=11 Supergravity
Pietro Antonio Grassi
We make some considerations and remarks on D=11 supergravity and its integral form. We start from the geometrical formulation of supergravity and by means of the integral form tech…
Sen's Mechanism for Self-Dual Super Maxwell theory
Gabriele Barbagallo, Pietro Antonio Grassi
In several elementary particle scenarios, self-dual fields emerge as fundamental degrees of freedom. Some examples are the chiral boson, Type IIB supergravity, and…
M5-brane in the superspace approach
L. Andrianopoli, C. A. Cremonini, R. D'Auria +5
Motivated by Sen's spacetime prescription for the construction of theories with self-dual field strengths, we present a rigid superspace Lagrangian describing noninteracting tensor…
Generalised Cocycles and Super p-Branes
C. A. Cremonini, P. A. Grassi
We study the cohomology (cocycles) of Lie superalgebras for the generalised complex of forms: superforms, pseudoforms and integral forms. We argue that these cocycles might be inte…
