In formulating covariant closed string field theories, we have always used closed string fields with the level-matching condition. Recently, open superstring field theories including the Ramond sector were constructed, and one approach was…
Any local field theory can be equivalently reformulated in the so-called unfolded form. General unfolded equations are non-Lagrangian even though the original theory is Lagrangian. Using the theory of a scalar field as a basic example, the…
We give an example of a graphon such that there is no equivalent graphon with a degree function that is (weakly) increasing.
We prove the existence of a roof function for arclength null quadrature domains having finitely many boundary components. This bridges a gap toward classification of arclength null quadrature domains by removing an a priori assumption from…
A bilocal field theory having M\"{o}bius gauge invariance is proposed. In four dimensions there exists a zero momentum state of the first quantized model, which belongs to a non-trivial BRS cohomology class. A field theory lagrangian having…
Abstract. In this work we use an elementary method to derive an upper bound on the right half-plane for genus 0 entire functions if it has only negative zeros. The bound only uses information of the function on the positive real axis.…
All counterexamples of Pinchuk type to the strong real Jacobian conjecture are shown to have rational function field extensions of degree six with no nontrivial automorphisms.
We analyse different approaches to the description of the quantum field theory of a free massless (pseudo)scalar field defined in 1+1-dimensional space-time which describes the bosonized version of the massless Thirring model. These are (i)…
The role of Lorentz symmetry in noncommutative field theory is considered. Any realistic noncommutative theory is found to be physically equivalent to a subset of a general Lorentz-violating standard-model extension involving ordinary…
This paper is concerned with the status of 1/0 and ways to deal with it. These matters are treated in the setting of Komori fields, also known as non-trivial cancellation meadows. Different viewpoints on the status of 1/0 exist in…
N=1 no-scale models describe at tree level the spontaneous breaking of supersymmetry at an arbitrary scale m_{3/2}, with vanishing vacuum energy. We define N=1 super no-scale models in string theory as being those, which maintain these…
We prove the Plancherel formula for hypergeometric functions associated to a root system in the situation when the root multiplicities are negative (but close to 0). As a result we obtain a classification of the hypergeometric functions…
Algebraically special fields with no gravitational radiation are described. Kerr-Schild fields, which include as a concrete case the Kinnersley photon rocket, form an important subclass of them.
The analogy between the arithmetic of varieties over number fields and the arithmetic of varieties over function fields is a leading theme in arithmetic geometry. This analogy is very powerful but there are some gaps. In this note we will…
We study D0-branes in type IIA on $T^2$ with a background B-field turned on. We calculate explicitly how the background B-field modifies the D0-brane action. The effect of the B-field is to replace ordinary multiplication with a…
A non-Abelian Born-Infeld theory is presented. The square root structure that characterizes the Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) action does not appear. The procedure is based on an Abelian theory proposed by Erwin Schr\"{o}dinger that, as he…
It is well known that, in the plane, the boundary of any quadrature domain (in the classical sense) coincides with the zero set of a polynomial. We show, by explicitly constructing some four-dimensional examples, that this is not always the…
We describe the resurgence properties of some partition functions corresponding to field theories in dimension 0. We show that these functions satisfy linear differential equations with polynomial coefficients and then use elementary…
This paper gives a classification of the topology of vector fields which are nowhere tangent to the fibers of a Seifert fibering.
This essay presents a critical evaluation of the concepts of string theory and its impact on particle physics. The point of departure is a historical review of four decades of ST within the broader context of six decades of failed attempts…
