Martin Wolf’s paper, co-authored with Christian Saemann (Heriot-Watt University), has appeared in Communications in Mathematical Physics. The title is “Non-Abelian tensor multiplet equation from twistor space“, with abstract: the paper establishes a Penrose–Ward transform yielding a bijection between holomorphic principal 2-bundles over a twistor space and non-Abelian self-dual tensor fields on six-dimensional flat space-time. Extending […]
