The solutions of the arbitrary-spin massless wave equations over ${\bf R}^1 \times H^3$ space are obtained using the generalized coherent states for the Lorentz group. The use of these solutions for the construction of invariant propagators…
In this paper, we explore the field propagator with a structure that is general enough to encompass both the case of newly-defined mass-dimension $1$ fermions and spin-$1/2$ bosons. The method we employ is to define a map between spinors of…
According to Ahluwalia and Grumiller, massive spin-half fields of mass-dimension one can be constructed using the eigenspinors of the charge-conjugation operator (Elko) as expansion coefficients. In this paper, we generalize their result by…

Studies of strong field particle physics processes in electron/laser interactions and lepton collider interaction points are reviewed. These processes are defined by the high intensity of the electromagnetic fields involved and the need to…
Long-range forces between macroscopic objects are mediated by light particles that interact with the electrons or nucleons, and include spin-dependent static components as well as spin- and velocity-dependent components. We parametrize the…
Coupling fermions to gravity necessarily leads to a non-renormalizable, gravitational four-fermion contact interaction. In this essay, we argue that augmenting the Einstein-Cartan Lagrangian with suitable kinetic terms quadratic in the…
We consider the massive relativistic particle models on fourdimensional Minkowski space extended by $N$ commuting Weyl spinors for N=1 and N=2. The N=1 model is invariant under the most general form of bosonic counterpart of simple D=4…
Cross-couplings between a massless spin-two field (described in the free limit by the Pauli-Fierz action) and an Abelian three-form gauge field in D=11 are investigated in the framework of the deformation theory based on local BRST…
A theory of massive gravity depends on a non-dynamical 'reference metric' f_{\mu\nu} which is often taken to be the flat Minkowski metric. In this paper we examine the theory of perturbations on a background with metric g_{\mu\nu} which…
We show that the energy-momentum tensor of homogeneous fields of arbitrary spin in an expanding universe is always isotropic in average provided the fields remain bounded and evolve rapidly compared to the rate of expansion. An analytic…
Recently proposed extension of Yang-Mills theory contains non-Abelian tensor gauge fields. The Lagrangian has quadratic kinetic terms, as well as cubic and quartic terms describing non-linear interaction of tensor gauge fields with the…
If the graviton is the only high spin particle present during inflation, then the form of the observable tensor three-point function is fixed by de Sitter symmetry at leading order in slow-roll, regardless of the theory, to be a linear…
We consider a possibility to describe spin one-half and higher spins of massive relativistic particles by means of commuting spinors. We present two classical gauge models with the variables $x^\mu,\xi_\alpha,\chi_\alpha$, where $\xi,\chi$…
Higher spin tensor gauge fields have natural gauge-invariant field equations written in terms of generalised curvatures, but these are typically of higher than second order in derivatives. We construct geometric second order field equations…
We investigate the linear and semilinear massive Klein-Gordon equations in geometrical frameworks of type "Conformal Cyclic Cosmology" of R. Penrose, or "Singular Bouncing Scenario" as well. We give sufficient conditions on the decay of the…

Using the gauge field model with massive gauge bosons, we could construct a new model to describe the strong interaction. In this new quantum chromodynamics(QCD) model, we will introduce two sets of gluon fields, one set is massive and…
It is a general belief that the only possible way to consistently deform the Pauli-Fierz action, changing also the gauge algebra, is general relativity. Here we show that a different type of deformation exists in three dimensions if one…
