Abstract:
In theories with nonlinearly realised symmetry it is possible in a number of cases
to eliminate some initial Goldstone and gauge fields by means of putting appropriate
Cartan forms equal to zero. This is called the inverse Higgs phenomenon. We give a general
treatment of the inverse Higgs phenomenon for gauge and space-time symmetries
and consider four instructive examples which are the elimination of unessential gauge
fields in chiral symmetry and in non-linearly realised supersymmetry and also the
elimination of unessential Goldstone fields in the spontaneously broken conformal and
projective symmetries.
