We introduce a doubled formalism for the bosonic sector of the maximal supergravities, in which a Hodge dual potential is introduced for each bosonic field (except for the metric). The equations of motion can then be formulated as a twisted…
The formalism of quantum field theory in operator form, based on the anti self-adjoint operators of the imaginary coordinate and momentum and the self-adjoint operators of the real coordinate, momentum, energy and time, is used in…
We introduce an extension of the standard cohomology which is characterised by maps that fail to be classical cocycles by products of simpler maps. The construction is motivated by the study of Manin's noncommutative modular symbols and of…
A strengthened canonical quantization scheme for the constrained motion on a curved hypersurface is proposed with introduction of the second category of fundamental commutation relations between Hamiltonian and positions/momenta, whereas…
The present paper is devoted to the study of dimonoids, algebraic structures with two associative binary operations that satisfy a prescribed system of axioms. We investigate the properties of dual dimonoids. In the class of noncommutative…
We consider specific examples of $\mathcal{N}$ = 2 supersymmetric quantum mechanical models and list out all the novel symmetries. In each case, we show the existence of two sets of discrete symmetries that correspond to the Hodge duality…
Two examples, not connected at present, from author's papers (Nuovo Cim., 1992, v.105A, p.77 [hep-th/0207210] and GRG, 1999, v.31, p.1431 [gr-qc/0207017]) are considered here in which a physical model has discrete symmetries and additional…
We describe a systematic way of the generalization, to models with non-linear duality, of the space-time covariant and duality-invariant formulation of duality-symmetric theories in which the covariance of the action is ensured by the…
Multicomplex numbers of order n have an associated trigonometry (multisine functions with (n-1) parameters) leading to a natural extension of the sine-Gordon model. The parameters are constrained from the requirement of local current…
We find and propose an explanation for a large variety of modularity-related symmetries in problems of 3-manifold topology and physics of 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories where such structures a priori are not manifest. These modular structures…
We develop some formalism which is very general Feynman path integral in the case of the action which is allowed to be complex. The major point is that the effect of the imaginary part of the action (mainly) is to determine which solution…
We consider three forms of composition of matroids, each of which extends the category of bimatroids to a rigid monoidal category. Many well-known constructions are functorial or defined by morphisms in these categories. Motivating examples…
In this paper, we discuss the generalizations of exact supersymmetries present in the supersymmetrized sigma models. These generalizations are made by making the supersymmetric transformation parameter field-dependent. Remarkably, the…
Metric algebras are metric variants of $\Sigma$-algebras. They are first introduced in the field of universal algebra to deal with algebras equipped with metric structures such as normed vector spaces. Recently a similar notion of…
We present a surprising redefinition of matrix fermions which brings the supercharges of the $\cal N$-extended supersymmetric $A_{n-1}$ Calogero model introduced in [1] to the standard form maximally cubic in the fermions. The complexity of…
We define basics of $(4,4)\;\; 2D$ harmonic superspace with two independent sets of $SU(2)$ harmonic variables and apply it to construct new superfield actions of $(4,4)$ supersymmetric two-dimensional sigma models with torsion and mutually…
Using complex Langevin method we probe the possibility of dynamical supersymmetry breaking in supersymmetric quantum mechanics models with complex actions. The models we consider are invariant under the combined operation of parity and time…
We apply the new orbifold duality transformations to discuss the special case of cyclic coset orbifolds in further detail. We focus in particular on the case of the interacting cyclic coset orbifolds, whose untwisted sectors are…
In $D=2+1$ dimensions there are two dual descriptions of parity singlets of helicity $\pm 1$, namely the self-dual model of first-order (in derivatives) and the Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory of second-order. Correspondingly, for helicity $\pm…
We develop an analogue of the theory of $*$-modules in the world of simplicial sets, based on actions of a certain simplicial monoid $E\mathcal M$ originally appearing in the construction of global algebraic $K$-theory. As our main results,…
