一个古老的观点认为,通过在受超挠率约束的超时空上对超场强施加比安基恒等式,就可以使高维超引力(SuGra)处于壳上。我们给出了一个现代化的、严谨的阐述并回顾了近期的发展,指出这种观点如何通过微分非阿贝尔上同调理论\(\mathcal{A}_{\mathrm{dff}}\)中的电磁通量量子化来构建SuGra的红外完备化,提升超比安基恒等式的系数\(L_\infty\)-代数\(\mathfrak{l}\mathcal{A}\)。在概述必要背景后,我们强调:(1)我们最近证明11维SuGra的解等同于无超挠率的11维超时空上超\(C\)-场通量的\(\mathfrak{l}S^4\)-比安基恒等式;(2)由此6维M5膜世界体积上的非线性自对偶规范扇区等同于超\(B\)-场通量的\(\mathfrak{l}_{S^4}S^7\)-比安基恒等式;(3)以及近期通过超NS/RR通量的\(\mathfrak{l}\mathrm{Cyc}(S^4)\)-比安基恒等式将这种情况超空间降维到10维IIA SuGra的完整讨论,及其通过相应超通量的\(\mathfrak{l}\mathrm{Tor}(S^4)\)-比安基恒等式进一步降维到9维超引力的扩展。最后我们指出这意味着通过4-同伦中的\(C\)-场通量量子化对11维SuGra、通过扭曲不稳定\(K\)-理论形式的NS/RR场通量量子化对10维IIA SuGra以及通过扭曲(扭量)相对同伦中的\(B\)-场通量量子化对M5膜世界体积进行一致的红外完备化。后者允许对实验相关的拓扑量子序进行几何工程。
英文摘要
It is an old idea that higher-dimensional super-gravity (SuGra) is put on-shell just by imposing Bianchi identities on super-field strengths over super-spacetimes subject to super-torsion constraints. We give a modernized, rigorous account and review recent developments, pointing out how this perspective lends itself to the construction of infrared completions of SuGra by electromagnetic flux quantization in differential nonabelian cohomology theories $\mathcal{A}_{\mathrm{dff}}$ lifting the coefficient $L_\infty$-algebra $\mathfrak{l}\mathcal{A}$ of the super-Bianchi identities. After surveying necessary background, we highlight: (1.) our recent proof that solutions of 11D SuGra are equivalent to the $\mathfrak{l}S^4$-Bianchi identities on super $C$-field flux over super-torsion-free 11D super-spacetimes, (2.) how from this the nonlinearly self-dual gauge sector on 6D M5-brane worldvolumes is equivalent to the $\mathfrak{l}_{S^4}S^7$-Bianchi identity on super $B$-field flux, (3.) and the recent complete discussion of superspace dimensional reduction of this situation to 10D IIA SuGra via $\mathfrak{l}\mathrm{Cyc}(S^4)$-Bianchi identities on super NS/RR-flux, together with its extension to further reduction to 9 SuGra via $\mathfrak{l}\mathrm{Tor}(S^4)$-Bianchis on the corresponding super-fluxes. We close by indicating how this implies consistent infrared completions of 11D SuGra by $C$-field flux quantization in 4-Cohomotopy, of 10D IIA SuGra by NS/RR-field flux-quantization in a form of twisted unstable K-theory, and of M5-brane worldvolumes by $B$-field flux-quantization in twisted (twistorial) relative Cohomotopy. The latter admits geometric engineering of experimentally relevant topological quantum orders.
