In a 4D four-fermion model we study the dynamical restoration of Lorentz and CPT symmetries at finite temperature. We evaluate the gap equation both at zero and at finite temperature and observe that, depending on the parameters of the…

We propose a novel approach to the Graphene system using a local field theory of 4 dimensional QED model coupled to 2+1 dimensional Dirac fermions, whose velocity is much smaller than the speed of light. Performing hybrid Monte Carlo…
We consider a class of field theories with a four-vector field $A_{\mu}(x)$ in addition to other fields supplied with a global charge symmetry - theories which have partial gauge symmetry in the sense of only imposing it on those terms in…
We study the dimensional reduction for a $(3+1)$-dimensional Lorentz Violating Lagrangian in the matter and gauge sectors in a Supersymmetric scenario. We thus obtain an effective model for photons induced by the effects of supersymmetry in…
We consider the gauge theory of Lorentz group coupled in a nonminimal way to fermions. We suggest the hypothesis that the given theory may exist in the phase with broken chiral symmetry and without confinement. The lattice discretization of…

We show for the first time that the induced parity--even Lorentz invariance violation can be unambiguously calculated in the physically justified and minimally broken dimensional regularization scheme, suitably tailored for a spontaneous…
We study a class of type I string models with supersymmetry broken on the world-volume of some D-branes and vanishing tree-level potential. Despite the non-supersymmetric spectrum, supersymmetry is non-linearly realized on these D-branes,…
An investigation of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with external constant electromagnetic and weak gravitational fields is carried out in three- and four-dimensional spacetimes. The effective potential of the composite bifermionic fields is…
Broken spacetime symmetries might emerge from a fundamental physical theory. The effective low-energy theory might be expected to exhibit violations of supersymmetry and Lorentz invariance. Some illustrative models which combine…
Low-energy remnant fundamental symmetry violations may be present in nature at levels attainable in upcoming experiments. These effects may arise through spontaneous symmetry breaking in a more complete Lorentz covariant theory underlying…
We discuss three manners to implement Lorentz symmetry breaking in a superfield theory formulated within the superfield formalism, that is, deformation of the supersymmetry algebra, introducing of an extra superfield whose components can…
If Lorentz symmetry is violated at high energies, interactions that are usually non-renormalizable can become renormalizable by weighted power counting. Recently, a CPT invariant, Lorentz violating extension of the Standard Model containing…
This work is dedicated to the study of both large-$N$ and perturbative quantum behaviors of Lifshitz nonlinear sigma models with dynamical critical exponent $z=2$ in 2+1 dimensions. We discuss renormalization and renormalization group…
We carefully study how the fermion-fermion interactions affect the low-energy states of a two-dimensional spin-$1/2$ fermionic system on the kagom\'{e} lattice with a quadratic band crossing point. With the help of the renormalization group…
We propose a model of Majorana fermions with quartic self-couplings. These Majorana fermions acquire masses via a type II seesaw mechanism in which the physical eigenstates are identified as a light Majorana fermion and another heavy…
Low-energy experiments studying single beta decay can serve as sensitive probes of Lorentz invariance that can complement interferometric searches for deviations from this spacetime symmetry. Experimental signatures of a dimension-three…
It is commonly accepted that in hadronic or nuclear collisions at extremely high energies the shortest scales are explored. At the classical level, this property of the interaction is closely related to the Lorentz contraction of the fields…
