Some useful operators on differential forms in Galilean and Carrollian spacetimes

Abstract

Differential forms on Lorentzian spacetimes is a well-established subject. On Galilean and Carrollian spacetimes it does not seem to be quite so. This may be due to the absence of Hodge star operator. There are, however, potentially useful analogs of Hodge star operator also on the last two spacetimes, namely intertwining operators between corresponding representations on forms. Their use could perhaps make differential forms as attractive tool for physics on Galilean and Carrollian spacetimes as forms on Lorentzian spacetimes definitely proved to be.
