We analytically work out the long-term rates of change of the six osculating Keplerian orbital elements of a test particle acted upon by the Lorentz-violating gravitomagnetic acceleration due to a static body, as predicted by the Standard…
We study theoretically the responsivity of optical modulators. For the case of linear response we find using perturbation theory an upper bound imposed upon the responsivity. For the case of two mode modulator we find a lower bound imposed…
The purpose of this note is to use the scaling principle to study the boundary behaviour of some conformal invariants on planar domains. The focus is on the Aumann--Carath\'{e}odory rigidity constant, the higher order curvatures of the…
It is well-known that measures whose density is the form $e^{-V}$ where $V$ is a uniformly convex potential on $\RR^n$ attain strong concentration properties. In search of a notion of log-concavity on the discrete hypercube, we consider…
The Heisenberg-Robertson uncertainty relation quantitatively expresses the impossibility of jointly sharp preparation of incompatible observables. However it does not capture the concept of incompatible observables because it can be trivial…
We study the recently proposed Lorentz-violating dispersion relation for fermions and show that it leads to two distinct cubic operators in the momentum. We compute the leading order terms that modify the non-relativistic equations of…
Lorentz-violating operators involving Standard Model fields are tightly constrained by experimental data. However, bounds are more model-independent for Lorentz violation appearing in purely gravitational couplings. The spontaneous breaking…
The recent observation of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos can be used to constrain violations of Lorentz invariance emerging from a quantum theory of gravity. We perform threshold and Cherenkov analyses that improve existing bounds by…
Violations of Lorentz boost symmetry in the electron and photon sectors can be constrained by studying several different high-energy phenomenon. Although they may not lead to the strongest bounds numerically, measurements made in…
Tests of Lorentz and CPT violation in the medium baseline reactor antineutrino experiment are presented in the framework of the Standard Model Extension (SME). Both the spectral distortion and sidereal variation are employed to derive the…
We study nonlinear dynamics in models of Lorentz-violating massive gravity. The Boulware-Deser instability restricts severely the class of acceptable theories. We identify a model that is stable. It exhibits the following bizarre but…
We examine the radiative corrections to an extension of the standard model containing a Lorentz-violating axial vector parameter. At second order in this parameter, the photon self-energy is known to contain terms that violate gauge…
We consider a class of models with infinite extra dimension, where bulk space does not possess SO(1,3) invariance, but Lorentz invariance emerges as an approximate symmetry of the low-energy effective theory. In these models, the maximum…
We study second-order divergence-form systems on half-infinite cylindrical domains with a bounded and possibly rough base, subject to homogeneous mixed boundary conditions on the lateral boundary and square integrable Dirichlet, Neumann, or…
Lorentz invariant violation (LIV) test is very important to study in the new physics. All the known astrophysical constraints either have a very small examinable parameter space, or are only suitable for some special theoretical models.…
A test of Lorentz invariance has been performed using an EIT resonance as a precision frequency discriminator within an Ives-Stilwell like apparatus. We analyse the experiment within the framework of the Standard Model Extension and have…
Short-range experiments testing the gravitational inverse-square law at the submillimeter scale offer uniquely sensitive probes of Lorentz invariance. A combined analysis of results from the short-range gravity experiments HUST-2015,…
The Standard-Model Extension provides a framework to systematically investigate possible violation of the Lorentz symmetry. Concerning gravity, the linearized version was extensively examined. We here cast the first set of experimental…
Consider the motion of a charged, point particle moving in the complement of a Poisson distribution of hard sphere scatterers in two dimensions under the effect of a fixed magnetic field. Building on, and extending a coupling method…
We present atom-interferometer tests of the local Lorentz invariance of post-Newtonian gravity. An experiment probing for anomalous vertical gravity on Earth, which has already been performed by us, uses the highest-resolution atomic…
