Twisted supermultiplets
Description
The topological effects on non simply connected space-time on supergravity with matter supermultiplets is investigated. Topological sectors are typically labelled by one or a pair of elements from the group of homomorphisms of π1(M) into Z2 and Lorentz invariant vacuum states are defined by analogy with the theta-vacua of Yang-Mills theory.
