On covariant actions for chiral p-forms
Abstract We construct a Lorentz and generally covariant, polynomial action for free chiral p-forms, classically equivalent to the Pasti-Sorokin-Tonin (PST) formulation. The minimal set up requires introducing an auxiliary p-form on top of the physical gauge p-form and the PST scalar. The action enjo...
