Bulk to Boundary Relation Between Topological Models and Supergravity Theories
Abstract
Description
We establish a direct correspondence between certain higher-rank p-form Chern-Simons topological type theories in the bulk of a manifold with boundary and particular sectors of supergravity models on the boundary, provided that certain boundary conditions are satisfied. The cases we investigate include eleven-dimensional supergravity and both of the type II theories in ten dimensions.
