We consider a model of classical noncommutative particle in an external electromagnetic field. For this model, we prove the existence of generalized gauge transformations. Classical dynamics in Hamiltonian and Lagrangian form is discussed,…
We apply the principles discussed in an earlier paper to the construction of discrete time field theories. We derive the discrete time field equations of motion and Noether's theorem and apply them to the Schrodinger equation to illustrate…
Using the dilaton theorem, we show that the classical action of closed string field theory vanishes on-shell.
The dynamics of baryon string model Y (three-string) is considered with using the approach that implies defining a classical motion of the system on the base of given initial position and initial velocities of string points. The analysis…
In this work a tachyonization of the $\Lambda$CDM model for a spatially flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker space-time is proposed. A tachyon field and a cosmological constant are considered as the sources of the gravitational field. Starting…
In this brief note we show that the zero dimensional version of the field theory of tachyon matter proposed by Sen, provides an action integral formulation for the motion of a particle in the presence of Newtonian gravity and nonlinear…
We describe an effective theory of a scalar field, motivated by some features expected in the low energy theory of gluodynamics in 3+1 dimensions. The theory describes two propagating massless particles in a certain limit, which we identify…
We construct the symplectic form on the covariant phase space of the open string field theory on a ZZ-brane in c=1 string theory, and determine the energy of the rolling tachyon solution, confirming Sen's earlier proposal based on boundary…
We discuss the effective action of tachyon in the two dimensional string theory at tree level. We show that already starting from the cubic terms the action is nonlocal and the usually assumed simplest cubic term does not give the correct…
In this paper we continue study of tachyon scalar field described by a Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) type action with constraints in the cosmological context. The proposed extension of the system introducing an auxiliary field in the…
We investigate the tachyon coupling in a static Robertson--Walker like metric background. For a tachyon and dilaton field which are only time dependent one can rewrite this model as a SU(2) Wess--Zumino--Witten model and a scalar…
It is shown using numerical simulation that classical charged tachyons have several features normally thought to be unique to quantum mechanics. Spin-like self-orbiting helical motions are shown to exist at discrete values for the velocity…
We argue that generic field theories defined on null manifolds should have an emergent BMS or conformal Carrollian structure. We then focus on a simple interacting conformal Carrollian theory, viz. Carrollian scalar electrodynamics. We look…

Rolling tachyon backgrounds, arising from open strings on unstable branes in bosonic string theory, can be related to a simple statistical mechanical model - Coulomb gas of point charges in two dimensions confined to a circle, the Dyson…
We study a class of theories in which space-time is treated classically, while interacting with quantum fields. These circumvent various no-go theorems and the pathologies of semi-classical gravity, by being linear in the density matrix and…
