We investigate the cosmological background evolution and perturbations in a general class of spatially covariant theories of gravity, which propagates two tensor modes and one scalar mode. We show that the structure of the theory is…
We solve the Cauchy problem for the Korteweg-de Vries equation with initial conditions which are steplike Schwartz-type perturbations of finite-gap potentials under the assumption that the respective spectral bands either coincide or are…
This paper is devoted to the study of propagation phenomena for $2$--hyponormal, quadratically hyponormal, and cubically hyponormal operator-valued weighted shifts. \ First, we show that every {\it quadratically} hyponormal matrix-valued…
We derive the governing equations for multiple scalar fields minimally coupled to gravity in a flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) background spacetime on large scales. We include scalar perturbations up to second order and write the…
We establish upper bounds for the weak and strong error resulting from a perturbation of the noise driving the stochastic Burgers equation, where we assume the noise to be additive and of trace class and the initial value to be sufficiently…
Krein-de Branges spectral theory establishes a correspondence between the class of differential operators called canonical Hamiltonian systems and measures on the real line with finite Poisson integral. We further develop this area by…
Starting from a topological gauge theory in two dimensions with symmetry groups $ISO(2,1)$, $SO(2,1)$ and $SO(1,2)$ we construct a model for gravity with non-trivial coupling to matter. We discuss the equations of motion which are connected…
In this paper an axiomatic formulation of the Schwinger Model in curved spacetime is considered. The mathematical approach utilized is that specified by Hollands and Wald in [1]. We will attempt to present the theory in this context,…
A covariant formalism for physical perturbations propagating along a string in an arbitrary curved spacetime is developed. In the case of a stationary string in a static background the propagation of the perturbations is described by a…
We first introduce a new model for a two-dimensional gauge-covariant wave equation with space-time white noise. In our main theorem, we obtain the probabilistic global well-posedness of this model in the Lorenz gauge. Furthermore, we prove…
A differential algebra with weight is an abstraction of both the derivation (weight zero) and the forward and backward difference operators (weight $\pm 1$). In 2010 Loday established the Koszul duality for the operad of differential…
We derive the quiver gauge theory on the world-volume of D3-branes transverse to an L(a,b,c) singularity by computing the endomorphism algebra of a tilting object first constructed by Van den Bergh. The quiver gauge theory can be concisely…
We extend the general framework of perturbative quantum field theory developped for the pure Yang-Mills model to gravity. First we present a variant of the elimination procedure of the anomalies in the second order of perturbation theory.…
This is a review on cosmological perturbation theory. After an introduction, it presents the problem of gauge transformation. Gauge invariant variables are introduced and the Einstein and conservation equations are written in terms of these…
In 1988 Bardeen has suggested a pragmatic formulation of cosmological perturbation theory which is powerful in practice to employ various fundamental gauge conditions easily depending on the character of the problem. The perturbation…
We investigate the quantum mechanics of the doubled torus system, introduced by Hull [1] to describe T-folds in a more geometric way. Classically, this system consists of a world-sheet Lagrangian together with some constraints, which reduce…
It is well known that the propagator for a massive scalar field is ill-defined in the coordinate space for $d\geq2$, in particular it diverges at the light-cone; we show that by using Lorentz symmetry breaking weighted measures, an infinite…
Gauge/gravity dualities provide a very useful approach into solving strongly coupled systems. We apply this to Composite Higgs models and determine the mass hierarchies of the corresponding bound states. As a cross check we apply this to…
We construct a perturbation theory which we conjecture to be free of the Coulomb-phase infrared divergence. This perturbation theory is developed for one of the simplest yet prototypical scattering amplitudes which would otherwise exhibit…
A linear analytical solution is derived for the gravitational shock wave produced by a particle of mass $M$ that decays into a pair of null particles. The resulting space-time is shown to be unperturbed and isotropic, except for a…
