Effects of a Wess-Zumino term in the theory of a d = 11 supergravity

  • 1. Institute of Theoretical and Experimental Physics

Description

The action of a d = 11 supergravity is renormalization-invariant in up to seventh-order perturbation theory because of a topological term in this action. A mechanism for the compactification M''→(4D space) x S7 is also discussed
