标题： Constructing Galileons

摘要： 在伦敦举行的 DISCRETE 2014 会议上所做的全会报告中，我简要概述了伽利略场论背后的思想及其吸引人的性质，并描述了一大类具有这些性质的标量场论。 在描述伽利略子如何出现并评论它们的迷人特性之后，报告的后半部分我重点关注构建类似伽利略理论的新方法，使用了探针膜构造和余子构造。 显示英文摘要

摘要： In this plenary talk delivered at the DISCRETE 2014 conference in London, I briefly summarize the ideas behind and attractive properties of the Galileon field theories, and describe a broad class of scalar field theories that share these properties. After describing how Galileons arise, and commenting on their fascinating properties, in the latter half of the talk I focus on novel ways of constructing Galileon-like theories, using both the probe brane construction, and the coset construction.
