  1. 1. An Analysis of Theories of Multiple Spin-2 Fields

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Joakim Flinckman; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Until recently, no consistent theory of more than two interacting spin-2 fields was known, except for a collection of pairwise bimetric couplings. In 2018, Hassan and Schmidt-May presented a theory with couplings beyond pairwise for an arbitrary number of fields in terms of vielbeins [1]. READ MORE

  3. 2. Classification of second order symmetric tensors in the Lorentz metric

    University essay from Matematiska institutionen

    Author : Hampus Hjelm Andersson; [2010]
    Keywords : Indefinite linear algebra; Lorentz metric; Minkowski space; symmetric tensors; Segre type; classification of canonical form;

    Abstract : This bachelor thesis shows a way to classify second order symmetric tensors in the Lorentz metric. Some basic prerequisite about indefinite and definite algebra is introduced, such as the Jordan form, indefinite inner products, the Segre type, and the Minkowski space. READ MORE
