Anisotropic Special Relativity (ASR) is the relativistic theory of nature with a preferred direction in space-time. By relaxing the \textit{full-isotropy} constraint on space-time to the \textit{preference of one direction}, we obtain a…

The AdS/CFT correspondence is applied to a close analogue of the little hierarchy problem in $AdS_{d+1}$, $d \geq 3$. The new mechanism requires a Maxwell field that gauges a $U(1)_R$ symmetry in a bulk supergravity theory with a negative…
We investigate systematic classifications of low energy and lower dimensional effective holographic theories with Lifshitz and Schr\"odinger scaling symmetries only using metrics in terms of hyperscaling violation ($\theta$) and dynamical…
We consider holography for Lifshitz spacetimes with dynamical exponent z=1+epsilon^2, where epsilon is small. We show that the holographically dual field theory is a specific deformation of the relativistic CFT, corresponding to the z=1…
A weak quantum mechanical coupling is constructed permitting superluminal communication within a preferred region of a gravitating AdS_5 spacetime. This is achieved by adding a spatially non-local perturbation of a special kind to the…
We consider the relativistic deformation of quantum waves and mechanical bodies carrying intrinsic angular momentum (AM). When observed in a moving reference frame, the centroid of the object undergoes an AM-dependent transverse shift. This…
