Colourful Poincaré symmetry, gravity and particle actions

From MaRDI portal

Abstract: We construct a generalisation of the three-dimensional Poincar'e algebra that also includes a colour symmetry factor. This algebra can be used to define coloured Poincar'e gravity in three space-time dimensions as well as to study generalisations of massive and massless free particle models. We present various such generalised particle models that differ in which orbits of the coloured Poincar'e symmetry are described. Our approach can be seen as a stepping stone towards the description of particles interacting with a non-abelian background field or as a starting point for a worldline formulation of an associated quantum field theory.
