We study membrane scattering in a curved space with non-zero M-momentum p_{11} transfer. In the low-energy short-distance region, the membrane dynamics is described by a three-dimensional N=4 supersymmetric gauge theory. We study an…
The idea of extra-dimensions has recently gone through a renewal with the hypothesis, suggested by recent developments in string theory, that ordinary matter is confined to a sub-space, called brane, embedded in a higher dimensional…
We study the propagation of bosonic strings in singular target space-times. For describing this, we assume this target space to be the quotient of a smooth manifold $M$ by a singular foliation ${\cal F}$ on it. Using the technical tool of a…
The global geometries of bulk vacuum space-times in the brane-universe models are investigated and classified in terms of geometrical invariants. The corresponding Carter-Penrose diagrams and embedding diagrams are constructed. It is shown…
We consider a spacetime formed by several pieces having common timelike boundary which plays the role of a junction between them. We establish junction conditions for fields of various spin and derive the resulting laws of wave propagation…
The confinement mechanism proposed earlier and then applied successfully to meson spectroscopy by one of the authors is interpreted in classical terms. For this aim the unique solution of the Maxwell equations, an analog of the…
We present a classical kinetically constrained model of interacting particles on a triangular ladder, which displays diffusion and jamming and can be treated by means of a classical-quantum mapping. Interpreted as a theory of interacting…
We study the self diffusion of individual particles in dense (non-)uniform complex fluids within dynamic density functional theory and explicitly account for their coupling to the temporally fluctuating background particles. Applying the…
Novel theories appear on the world-volume of branes by orienting B fields along various directions of the branes. We review some of the earlier developments and explore many new examples of these theories. In particular, among other things,…
A mathematical formalism for treating spacetime topology as a quantum observable is provided. We describe spacetime foam entirely in algebraic terms. To implement the correspondence principle we express the classical spacetime manifold of…
A binary system of classical charged particles interacting through a dipole repulsive potential and confined in a two-dimensional hardwall trap is studied by Brownian dynamics simulations. We found that the presence of small particles…
We desribe the minimal configurations of the bosonic membrane potential, when the membrane wraps up in an irreducible way over $S^{1}\times S^{1}$. The membrane 2-dimensional spatial world volume is taken as a Riemann Surface of genus $g$…
In a six dimensional brane world model with multiple $S_1/Z_2$ warping, two of the 4-branes at the boundaries have coordinate dependent brane tensions in order to implement the orbifolded boundary conditions consistently. Such brane tension…
An application of the Newton-Cartan framework to the study of membranes is presented. Specifically, for membranes of co-dimension one in hydrostatic equilibrium embedded in a flat ambient Newton-Cartan spacetime. For such membranes, the…
We study the issue of description of spinning particle dynamics by means of recently proposed world sheet concept. A model of irreducible spinning particle in the $3d$ Minkowski space with two gauge symmetries is considered. The classical…
In this paper we introduce a novel method to simulate lateral diffusion of inclusions in a fluctuating membrane. The regarded systems are governed by two dynamic processes: the height fluctuations of the membrane and the diffusion of the…
The quantum theory of a massless spin two particle is strongly constrained by diffeomorphism invariance, which is in turn implied by unitarity. We explicitly exhibit the space-time diffeomorphism algebra of string theory, realizing it in…
We present the study of a two 3-branes system embedded in a 5-dimensional space-time in which the fifth dimension is compacted on a $S^{1}/Z_{2}$ orbifold and the space between the two branes is vacuum. Assuming isotropic and homogeneous…
A consistent theory describing the dynamics of quantum systems interacting on a classical space-time was recently put forward by Oppenheim et al..[1, 2]. Quantum states may retain their coherence, at the cost of some amount of stochasticity…
We analyze the propagation of electromagnetic waves in media where the dielectric constants undergo rapid temporal periodic modulation. Both spatially homogeneous and periodic media are studied. Fast periodic temporal modulation of the…
