The standard argument for the Lorentz invariance of the thermodynamic entropy in equilibrium is based on the assumption that it is possible to perform an adiabatic transformation whose only outcome is to accelerate a macroscopic body,…
We present a study of the tensorial structure of the hadronic matrix elements of the angular momentum operators $\bm{J}$. Well known results in the literature are shown to be incorrect, and we have taken pains to derive the correct…
In this work, we formulate a generalized uncertainty principle with both position and momentum operators modified from their canonical forms. We study whether Lorentz symmetry is violated and whether it can be saved with these…
Lorentz's reciprocity lemma and Feld-Tai reciprocity theorem show the effect of interchanging the action and reaction in Maxwell's equations. We derive a free-space version of these reciprocity relations which generalizes the conservation…
Consider a worldline of a pointlike particle parametrized by polynomial functions, together with the light cone ("retardation") equation of an inertially moving observer. Then a set of apparent copies, R- or C-particles, defined by the…
A simple consequence of the angular momentum conservation in quantum field theories is that the interference of s-channel amplitudes exchanging particles with different spin J vanishes after complete angular integration. We show that, while…
If textbook Lorentz invariance is actually a property of the equations describing a sector of the excitations of vacuum above some critical distance scale, several sectors of matter with different critical speeds in vacuum can coexist and…
Quantum field theories in front-form dynamics are not manifestly rotationally invariant. We study a model bound-state equation in 3+1 dimensional front-form dynamics, which was shown earlier to reproduce the Bohr and hyperfine structure of…
It is well-known that an electric charge under a uniform magnetic field has a bidimensional motion if its initial position and velocity are perpendicular to this magnetic field. Although some constants of motion, as the energy and angular…
In the context of departures from Special Relativity written as a momentum power expansion in the inverse of an ultraviolet energy scale M, we derive the constraints that the relativity principle imposes between coefficients of a deformed…
The matrix elements of local operators such as the electromagnetic current, the energy momentum tensor, angular momentum, and the moments of structure functions have exact representations in terms of light-cone Fock state wavefunctions of…
We explore how rotational invariance is systematically recovered from calculations on hyper-cubic lattices through the use of smeared lattice operators that smoothly evolve into continuum operators with definite angular momentum as the…
We develop a complete relativistic theory to describe the dynamics of electronic angular momentum including both spin (S) and orbital (L) contributions in magnetic systems. We start with the relativistic Dirac-Kohn-Sham Hamiltonian under…
We analytically calculate some orbital effects induced by the Lorentz-invariance/momentum-conservation PPN parameter $\alpha_3$ in a gravitationally bound binary system made of a compact primary orbited by a test particle. We neither…
It is shown that the field equations derived from an effective interaction hamiltonian for Maxwell and gravitational fields in the semiclassical approximation of loop quantum gravity using rotational invariant states (such as weave states)…
We show that for isolated relativistic systems with spin the conservation of total angular momentum implies that, instead of the center of mass, it is a modified center of mass and spin which behaves inertially. This requires a change in…
We derive conservation laws for energy-momentum (canonical and dynamical) and angular momentum for a general Lorentz connection.
We identify a fairly general class of field configurations (of spins 0, 1/2 and 1) which preserve Lorentz invariance in effective field theories of Lorentz violation characterized by a constant timelike vector. These fields concomitantly…
Predicting when a chaotic trajectory will switch between the lobes of the Lorenz attractor is a long-standing challenge in nonlinear dynamics. This work shows that algebraic conservation laws, constructed by augmenting phase space with…
