We describe a class of diffeomorphism invariant SU(N) gauge theories in N^2 dimensions, together with some matter couplings. These theories have (N^2-3)(N^2-1) local degrees of freedom, and have the unusual feature that the constraint associated with time reparametrizations is identically satisfied. A related class of SU(N) theories in N^2-1 dimensions has the constraint algebra of general relativity, but has more degrees of freedom. Non-perturbative quantization of the first type of theory via SU(N) spin networks is briefly outlined.
In a diffeomorphism invariant theory, symmetry breaking may be a mask for coordinate choice.
We consider families of geometries of D--dimensional space, described by a finite number of parameters. Starting from the De Witt metric we extract a unique integration measure which turns out to be a geometric invariant, i.e. independent of the gaug
In this paper we use the covariant Peierls bracket to compute the algebra of a sizable number of diffeomorphism-invariant observables in classical Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity coupled to fairly arbitrary matter. We then show that many recent results, in
In $SU(N)$ gauge theory, it is argued recently that there exists a mixed anomaly between the CP symmetry and the 1-form $mathbb{Z}_N$ symmetry at $theta=pi$, and the anomaly matching requires CP to be spontaneously broken at $theta=pi$ if the system
Pure gauge theories for de Sitter, anti de Sitter and orthogonal groups, in four-dimensional Euclidean spacetime, are studied. It is shown that, if the theory is asymptotically free and a dynamical mass is generated, then an effective geometry may be induced and a gravity theory emerges.
