Metric-affine gauge theory of gravity: field equations, Noether identities, world spinors, and breaking of dilation invariance

FW Hehl, JD McCrea, EW Mielke, Y Ne'eman - Physics Reports, 1995‏ - Elsevier
In Einstein's gravitational theory, the spacetime is Riemannian, that is, it has vanishing
torsion and vanishing nonmetricity (covariant derivative of the metric). In the gauging of the …

Light pseudoscalars, particle physics and cosmology

JE Kim - Physics Reports, 1987‏ - Elsevier
We review physics of light pseudoscalars (axions, majorons and familons) and their effects
in cosmology. The axions which solve the strong CP problem play important roles in …

Gauge theory correlators from non-critical string theory

SS Gubser, IR Klebanov, AM Polyakov - Physics Letters B, 1998‏ - Elsevier
We suggest a means of obtaining certain Green's functions in 3+ 1-dimensional N= 4
supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with a large number of colors via non-critical string theory …

The quartic effective action for the heterotic string

DJ Gross, JH Sloan - Nuclear Physics B, 1987‏ - Elsevier
We calculate the complete low-energy effective action to quartic order in the bosonic fields
for the heterotic string. We find that, in addition to the term involving Ξ (3) found previously …
