We derive a Weyl invariant equation for Gravity by gauging the global Weyl invariance of vacuum Einstein equations. The equation is linear in the curvature and a natural generalization of Einstein equations to Weyl geometry. The system has…
We study Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity with positive cosmological constant as a model for de Sitter quantum gravity. We focus on the quantum mechanics of the model at past and future infinity. There is a Hilbert space of asymptotic states and…
We study the asymptotic behavior of a singular potential, and discuss the self-consistency condition for the spherical symmetric Klein-Gordon equation. In our view, gravity and the weak force are subsidiary, derived from electricity.…
Conformal Gravity (CG) is a Weyl--invariant metric theory whose action is free from divergences for generic asymptotically anti-de Sitter spaces. For Neumann boundary conditions, it reduces to renormalized Einstein--AdS gravity at tree…
We describe a simple gauge-fixing that leads to a construction of a quantum Hilbert space for quantum gravity in an asymptotically Anti de Sitter spacetime, valid to all orders of perturbation theory. The construction is motivated by a…
In this paper we explore the physical consequences of assuming Weyl invariance of the laws of gravity from the classical standpoint exclusively. Actual Weyl invariance requires to replace the underlying Riemannian geometrical structure of…
A vector boson $W_{1}^{\mu}$ with the quantum numbers $\left(\boldsymbol{3},1\right)$ under $SU\left(2\right)_{L}\times U(1)_{Y}$ could in principle couple with the Higgs field via the renormalizable term $W_{1}^{\mu*}HD_{\mu}H$. This…
We sketch the construction of a quantum model of 3 dimensional de Sitter space, based on the Covariant Entropy Principle and the observation that semi-classical physics suggests the possibility of a consistent theory of a finite number of…
A perturbative regime based on contortion as a dynamical variable and metric as a (classical) fixed background, is performed in the context of a pure Yang-Mills formulation for gravity in a $2+1$ dimensional space-time. In the massless case…
Inspired by F. Wilczek's QCD Lite, quantum Yang-Mills-Weyl Dynamics (YMWD) describes quantum interaction between gauge bosons (associated with a simple compact gauge Lie group $\mathbb{G}$) and larks (massless chiral fields colored by an…
This article deals with a nonrelativistic cosmological model based on Galilean covariance, formulated within a five-dimensional Galilean manifold. Within this framework, we construct an isotropic and homogeneous metric analogous to the…
We present a new picture of the early universe in finite nonlocal quantum gravity, which is Weyl invariant at the classical and quantum levels. The high-energy regime of the theory consists of two phases, a Weyl invariant trans-Planckian…
We present the basic $\mathcal{N} =1$ superconformal field theories in four-dimensional de Sitter space-time, namely the non-abelian super Yang-Mills theory and the chiral multiplet theory with gauge interactions or cubic superpotential.…
We analyse in a systematic way the (non-)compact n-dimensional Einstein Weyl spaces equipped with a cohomogeneity-one metric. With no compactness hypothesis, we prove that, as soon as the (n-1)-dimensional space is an homogeneous reductive…
Recent cosmological observations and compatible theory offer an understanding of long-mysterious dark matter and dark energy. The postulate of universal conformal local Weyl scaling symmetry, without dark matter, modifies action integrals…
The application of N=2 supersymmetric quantum mechanics for the quantization of homogeneous systems coupled with gravity is discussed. Starting with the superfield formulation of an N=2 SUSY sigma model, Hermitian self-adjoint expressions…
We present a classically equivalent reformulation of the Standard Model. In this framework, the Higgs doublet is recast as a $2\times2$ matrix and right-handed fermion singlets are organized into novel doublets. This restructuring reveals a…
We analyse scale invariant quadratic quantum gravity incorporating non-minimal coupling to a multiplet of scalar fields in a gauge theory, with particular emphasis on the consequences for its interpretation resulting from a transformation…
A new class of gravity-matter models defined in terms of two independent non-Riemannian volume forms (alternative generally covariant integration measure densities) on the space-time manifold are studied in some detail. These models involve…
We explore the paradigm of pre-geometric gravity, where spacetime geometry and the gravitational field are not fundamental but emerge from the spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) of a larger gauge symmetry. Specifically, we consider a gauge…
