Two potentials, one gauge group: a possible geometrical motivation

  • 1. Centro Brasileiro de Pesquisas Fisicas, Rio de Janeiro

Description

By studying the purely gravitational sector of a higher-dimensional matter-gravity coupled theory, one can see that in the case of nonvanishing torsion the effective 4-dimensional theory exhibits two gauge potentials that transform under the action of a single gauge group
