The DSZ quantization and self-dual formulation of four-dimensional supergravity

Iuliu-Calin Lazaroiu (IFIN-HH, Bucharest)

Aug 04. 2022, 10:00 — 11:00

I describe the Dirac-Schwinger-Zwanziger (DSZ) quantization of four-dimensional bosonic ungauged supergravity on an oriented four-manifold of arbitrary topology and its manifestly duality-covariant gauge-theoretic formulation through connections on certain principal bundles with disconnected fibers.
