Compactification on non-symmetric six dimensional coset spaces with torsion

  • 1. Glasgow Univ. (UK). Dept. of Physics and Astronomy

Description

The equations of motion of a ten dimensional model based on the Chapline-Manton lagrangian, modified by higher derivative terms, are solved using six dimensional coset spaces with torsion. Minkowski space, anti-de Sitter, de Sitter and Einstein static cosmology with negative curvature are possible four dimensional cosmologies. In all case symmetry breaking schemes E8 x E8 <- E8 x E6 with chiral 27's of E6 can be obtained. (orig.)
