Curvature varifolds with orthogonal boundary | BIMSA Differential Geometry Semina
AbstractI will review four-dimensional gravity in the coframe-and-connection formulation (a.k.a. Palatini–Cartan formalism) and what it entails on boundaries (e.g., on Cauchy surfaces) and on corners (e.g., surfaces at infinity or surfaces around singularities in space). This full analysis will require the BV, the BFV and related formalisms and their interplay.About the speakerAlberto Cattaneo...
