U-gravity: SL(N)

Abstract: We construct a duality manifest gravitational theory for the special linear group, SL(N ) with N = 4. The spacetime is formally extended, to have the dimension 1 2 N (N − 1), yet is gauged. Consequently the theory is subject to a section condition. We introduce a semi-covariant derivative and a semi-covariant 'Riemann' curvature, both of which can be completely covariantized after symmetrizing or contracting the SL(N ) vector indices properly. Fully covariant scalar and 'Ricci' curvatures then constitute the a… Show more

“…Consequently, if we keep (n,n) fixed once and for all, the variational principle gets restricted and fails to reproduce the full EDFEs: the specific part, Y µ i (P EP ) µνȲ ν ı , does not have to vanish on-shell (4.9). 9 The EDFEs are supposed to arise as the string worldsheet beta-functions [91,92]. For the doubled-yetgauged string action (1.10) upon an arbitrarily chosen (n,n) background, the (n,n)-changing variations of 9 As can be seen from the DFT-metric would correspond to marginal deformations.…”

“…9 The EDFEs are supposed to arise as the string worldsheet beta-functions [91,92]. For the doubled-yetgauged string action (1.10) upon an arbitrarily chosen (n,n) background, the (n,n)-changing variations of 9 As can be seen from the DFT-metric would correspond to marginal deformations. We must stress that these deformations could not be realized by merely varying the background component fields with fixed (n,n) (4.13), c.f.…”

“…In [54] extended geometry for the group SL(N) was constructed, that may be interpreted as internal sector of a corresponding EFT. One may be interested in merging this work and the present results to end with an SL(N) "exceptional" field theory.…”
