We clarify the existence of two different types of truncations of the field content in a theory, the consistency of each type being achieved by different means. A proof is given of the conditions to have a consistent truncation in the case…
A consistent guiding-center Hamiltonian theory is derived by Lie-transform perturbation method, with terms up to second order in magnetic-field nonuniformity. Consistency is demonstrated by showing that the guiding-center transformation…
We show that there is no off-shell Palatini formulation of minimal supergravity. Nonetheless, we have been able to generalize the multiplet and Lagrangians of this theory to the case of vanishing determinant of the vierbein. Unfortunately,…
From the viewpoint of the SU(2) coherent states (CS) and their path integrals (PI) labeled by a full set of Euler angles $(\phi, \theta, \psi)$ which we developed in the previous paper, we study the relations between gauge symmetries of…
The present article is devoted to the construction of a unified formalism for Palatini and unimodular gravity. The basic idea is to employ a relationship between unified formalism for a Griffiths variational problem and its classical…
The (reduced) characteristic group of a locally conformally product manifold is obtained by restricting the action of its fundamental group to the non-flat factor of the universal cover, and taking the connected component of the identity in…
In this article we define Lagrangian concordance of Legendrian knots, the analogue of smooth concordance of knots in the Legendrian category. In particular we study the relation of Lagrangian concordance under Legendrian isotopy. The focus…
We prove an existence result for a $p$-Laplacian problem set in the whole Euclidean space and exhibiting a critical term perturbed by a singular, convective reaction. The approach used combines variational methods, truncation techniques,…
Searching for a Lagrangian may seem either a trivial endeavour or an impossible task. In this paper we show that the Jacobi last multiplier associated with the Lie symmetries admitted by simple models of classical mechanics produces (too?)…
Results from studies of effective Lagrangians for gaugino condensation are summarized and re-examined with an eye to previously neglected one-loop quadratically divergent corrections.
One of the difficulties encountered when studying physical theories in discrete space-time is that of describing the underlying continuous symmetries (like Lorentz, or Galilei invariance). One of the ways of addressing this difficulty is to…
Effective Lagrangians are a useful tool for a data-driven approach to physics beyond the Standard Model at the LHC. However, for the new physics scales accessible at the LHC, the effective operator expansion is only relatively slowly…
Multidimensional consistency has emerged as a key integrability property for partial difference equations (P$\Delta$Es) defined on the "space-time" lattice. It has led, among other major insights, to a classification of scalar affine-linear…
Constructions introduced by Dirac for singular Lagrangians are extended and reinterpreted to cover cases when kernel distributions are either nonintegrable or of nonconstant rank, and constraint sets need not be closed.
Supersymmetry and Lorentz invariance are closely related as both are spacetime symmetries. Terms can be added to Lagrangians that explicitly break either supersymmetry or Lorentz invariance. It is possible to include terms which violate…
Finsler and Lagrange spaces can be equivalently represented as almost Kahler manifolds enabled with a metric compatible canonical distinguished connection structure generalizing the Levi Civita connection. The goal of this paper is to…
In this paper, we introduce a natural notion of constant curvature Lorentzian surfaces with conical singularities, and provide a large class of examples of such structures. We moreover initiate the study of their global rigidity, by proving…
We prove an existence result for exact lagrangian cobordisms between closed legendrians.
Via considerations of symplectic reduction, monodromy, mirror symmetry and Chern-Simons functionals, a conjecture is proposed on the existence of special Lagrangians in the hamiltonian deformation class of a given Lagrangian submanifold of…
A differential calculus on Cuntz algebra with three generators coming from the action of rotation group in three dimensions is introduced. The differential calculus is shown to satisfy Assumptions I-IV of [1] so that Levi-Civita Connection…
