Super Wilson Loops and Holonomy on Supermanifolds

Josua Groeger (2014)

Communications in Mathematics

The classical Wilson loop is the gauge-invariant trace of the parallel transport around a closed path with respect to a connection on a vector bundle over a smooth manifold. We build a precise mathematical model of the super Wilson loop, an extension introduced by Mason-Skinner and Caron-Huot, by endowing the objects occurring with auxiliary Graßmann generators coming from S -points. A key feature of our model is a supergeometric parallel transport, which allows for a natural notion of holonomy on...

Sur l'holonomie des variétés pseudo-riemanniennes de signature (2,2+n).

A. Ikemakhen (1999)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

In this paper, we determine a class of possible restricted holonomy groups for a non-irreducible indecomposable pseudoriemannian manifold with signature (2,2 + n). In particular, we deduce that which associated to symmetric spaces; and give some examples of such spaces. Finally, we construct some examples of metrics whose restricted holonomy groups are not closed.
