Relative QFT

http://arxiv.org/pdf/1212.1692.pdf

Expectation 5.3: Given a real Lie algebra, invariant inner product such that all coroots have length square 2, and a full lattice in the Cartan such that on the lattice the inner product is integral and even, there should exist a 7 dimensional topological quantum field theory and a 6 dimensional theory relative to it.

This is supposed to be the big goal of the (2,0) siX theory.

A relative QFT is an extended field theory in one higher dimension. To be continued...
