Coset Space Dimensional Reduction of Einstein--Yang--Mills theory

TL;DR

This paper extends the coset space dimensional reduction framework for Einstein--Yang--Mills theories by incorporating scalar fluctuations, Kaluza--Klein excitations, and gravity-modified reduction rules for non-abelian gauge theories.

Contribution

It introduces a comprehensive reduction scheme that includes scalar and metric excitations, enhancing the understanding of higher-dimensional gauge theories compactified on coset spaces.

Findings

Derived gravity-modified reduction rules for non-abelian gauge theories

Included scalar fluctuations and Kaluza--Klein excitations in the reduction process

Extended previous models to more general compactification scenarios

Abstract

In the present contribution we extend our previous work by considering the coset space dimensional reduction of higher-dimensional Einstein--Yang--Mills theories including scalar fluctuations as well as Kaluza--Klein excitations of the compactification metric and we describe the gravity-modified rules for the reduction of non-abelian gauge theories.
