Antisymmetric matrices in effective field theory

I'm trying to construct a nonlinear $d$-dimensional version E&M as an effective field theory. Let $F_{\mu\nu}=\partial_\mu A_\nu-\partial_\nu A_\mu$ be the field strength. The most general action I ca …

Actions for relativistic point-particles of higher spin

To describe the behavior of a relativistic point-particle, we have the standard action $$S=\int d\tau \bigg[\frac{1}{e} \dot X^\mu\dot X_\mu +m^2 e\bigg], $$ where $e$ is the worldline einbein. Then, …

Higher form symmetries and massive gauge fields

I have seen all kinds of questions and answers about how to identify a higher-form symmetries, but they all seem rather abstract. What I would like to do is investigate two very simple examples. Cons …

Extended SUSY and superspace

I am trying to understand how to construct an action using the superspace formalism for $\mathcal N>1$. I have read that this is quite difficult to do, so let's consider a simple example. Suppose I wa …
