The paper is devoted to a geometrical interpretation of gauge invariance in terms of the formalism of field theory in compact space-time dimensions [arXiv:0903.3680]. In this formalism, the kinematic information of an interacting elementary…
Gauge symmetries emerge from a redundant description of the effective action for light degrees of freedom after the decoupling of heavy modes. This redundant description avoids the use of explicit constraints in configuration space. For…
In this short review we compare the rigid Noether charges to topological gauge charges. One important extension is that one should consider each boundary component of spacetime independently. The argument that relates bulk charges to…
Building on the principle of combinatorial gauge symmetry, lattice gauge theories can be formulated with only one- and two-body interactions that ensure the exact realization of the symmetry rather than its approximate emergence in a…
We present a formalism for analysis of linear Cauchy data on a Kottler metric. Our method removes redundancy due to gauge transformations and constraints. A set of four gauge-invariant, scalar functions on the Cauchy surface is produced and…
We study Faddeev formulation of gravity, in which the metric is composed of vector fields. We consider these fields constant in the interior of the 4-simplices of a simplicial complex. The action depends not only on the values of the fields…
We develop differential calculus and gauge theory on a finite set G. An elegant formulation is obtained when G is supplied with a group structure and in particular for a cyclic group. Connes' two-point model (which is an essential…
The relation between symmetries and local conservation laws, known as Noether's theorem, plays an important role in modern theoretical physics. As a discrete analog of the differentiable physical system, a good numerical scheme should admit…
The Poisson gauge algebra is a semi-classical limit of complete non-commutative gauge algebra. In the present work we formulate the Poisson gauge theory which is a dynamical field theoretical model having the Poisson gauge algebra as a…
We construct Euclidean 5d supersymmetric gauge theories on the five-sphere with vector and hypermultiplets. The SUSY transformation and the action are explicitly determined from the standard Noether procedure as well as from off-shell…
A Kerr type solution in the Regge calculus is considered. It is assumed that the discrete general relativity, the Regge calculus, is quantized within the path integral approach. The only consequence of this approach used here is the…
Interactions of gauge-invariant systems are severely constrained by several consistency requirements. One is the preservation of the number of gauge symmetries, another is causal propagation. For lower-spin fields, the emphasis is usually…
We prove mean and pointwise ergodic theorems for the action of a discrete lattice subgroup in a connected algebraic Lie group, on infinite volume homogeneous algebraic varieties. Under suitable necessary conditions, our results are…
The concept of gauge invariance is one of the most subtle and useful concepts in modern theoretical physics. It is one of the Standard Model cornerstones. The main benefit due to the gauge invariance is that it can permit the comprehension…
The Noether symmetry approach is useful tool to restrict the arbitrariness in a gravity theory when the equations of motion are underdetermined due to the high number of functions to be determined in the ansatz. We consider two…
We sketch the main features of the Noether Symmetry Approach, a method to reduce and solve dynamics of physical systems by selecting Noether symmetries, which correspond to conserved quantities. Specifically, we take into account the…
We review the {\it Noether Symmetry Approach} as a geometric criterion to select theories of gravity. Specifically, we deal with Noether Symmetries to solve the field equations of given gravity theories. The method allows to find out exact…
A gauge invariant action principle, based on the idea of transgression forms, is proposed. The action extends the Chern-Simons form by the addition of a boundary term that makes the action gauge invariant (and not just quasi-invariant).…
Two actions which are functionals of different variables but describing the same dynamical system can be shown to possess the same origin by constructing a master action which generates both of them. We first present the master action which…
In this work we prove uniqueness result for an implicit discrete system defined on connected graphs. Our discrete system is motivated from a certain class of spatial segregation of reaction-diffusion equations.
