Impossible Symmetries and Conformal Gravity

Kavli Affiliate: Austin Joyce | First 5 Authors: Kurt Hinterbichler, Austin Joyce, GrĂ©goire Mathys, , | Summary: We explore the physics of relativistic gapless phases defined by a mixed anomaly between two generalized conserved currents. The gapless modes can be understood as Goldstone modes arising from the nonlinear realization of (generically higher-form) symmetries arising from […]
