Supergravities are usually presented in a so-called 1.5 order formulation. Here we present a general scheme to derive pure 1^{st} order formulations of supergravities from the 1.5 order ones. The example of N_4=1 supergravity will be…

The study of generic, non-linear, deformations of Special Relativity parametrized by a high-energy scale $M$, which was carried out at first order in $M$ in Phys.Rev. D86, 084032 (2012), is extended to second order. This can be done…
We show that the solutions of first order nonlinear ODEs can be controlled globally in the complex domain, using a finite set of constants of motion defined in regions of $\CC$. These constants of motion enable us to obtain quantitative…

In this work we study kinklike structures, which are localized solutions that appear in models described by real scalar fields. The model to be considered is characterized by two real scalar fields and includes a function of one of the two…
We study the optimization of non-convex functions that are not necessarily smooth (gradient and/or Hessian are Lipschitz) using first order methods. Smoothness is a restrictive assumption in machine learning in both theory and practice,…
In many nonlinear field theories, relevant solutions may be found by reducing the order of the original Euler-Lagrange equations, e.g., to first order equations (Bogomolnyi equations, self-duality equations, etc.). Here we generalise,…
