Besides the two fundamental postulates, (i) the principle of relativity and (ii) the constancy of the one-way velocity of light in all inertial frames of reference, the special theory of relativity employs another assumption. This…
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…
In this work we address several issues associated with orbital angular momentum relevant for leading twist polarized deep inelastic scattering. We present a detailed analysis of the light-front helicity operator (generator of rotations in…
In relative locality theories the geometric properties of phase space depart from the standard ones given by the fact that spaces of momenta are linear fibers over a spacetime base manifold. In particular here it is assumed that the…
The standard approaches of phenomenology of Quantum Gravity have usually explicitly violated Lorentz invariance, either in the dispersion relation or in the addition rule for momenta. We investigate whether it is possible in 3+1 dimensions…
We studied the orbit of an electron revolving around an infinitely massive nucleus of a large classical Hydrogen atom subject to an AC electric field oscillating perpendicular to the electron's circular orbit. Using perturbation theory in…
We discuss the possibility of explaining the observation of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays with energy above the GZK cutoff, saving the relativity principle and the (possibly deformed) Lorentz symmetry, as proposed recently by several…
In relativistic physics, angular momentum is paired with a lesser known conserved quantity, the "mass moment", which appears as the time-space components of the angular momentum tensor. Calculations of mass moment in electromagnetic and…
Lorentz invariant scalar functions of the magnetic field are defined in an ideal relativistic plasma. These invariants are advected by the plasma fluid motion and play the role of the {\it potential magnetic field} introduced by R. Hide in…
With a well-motivated extension of higher order holonomy corrections, the quantum theory of loop quantum cosmology (LQC) for the $k=0$ Friedmann-Robertson-Walker model (with a free massless scalar) is rigorously formulated. The analytical…
Front form dynamics is not a manifestly rotational invariant formalism. In particular, the requirement of an invariance under rotations around the transverse axes is difficult to fulfill.In the present work it is investigated, to which…
The Lorentz transformation is derived without the postulate of the universal limiting speed, and the general Edwards transformation is obtained by using the principle of permutation invariance (covariance). It is shown that the existences…
While conformal transformations of the plane preserve Laplace's equation, Lorentz-conformal mappings preserve the wave equation. We discover how simple geometric objects, such as quadrilaterals and pairs of crossing curves, are transformed…
We study remaining Lorentz symmetry, i.e. Lorentz transformations which leave the noncommutativity parameter $\theta^{\mu\nu}$ invariant, within the approach of time-ordered perturbation theory (TOPT) to space-time noncommutative theories.…
It is generally expected from intuition that the electromagnetic force exerted on a charged particle should remain unchanged when observed in different reference frames in uniform translational motion. In the special relativity, this…
General relativity predicts that energy and momentum conservation laws hold and that preferred frames do not exist. The parametrised post-Newtonian formalism (PPN) phenomenologically quantifies possible deviations from general relativity.…
The light-front quantization of QCD provides an alternative to lattice gauge theory for computing the mass spectrum, scattering amplitudes, and other physical properties of hadrons directly in Minkowski space. Nonperturbative light-front…
We develop a formulation of particle mechanics in which the functional relation between force and kinetic energy is derived directly from local conservation mechanical energy $E$, rather than postulated through Newton's second law or a…

Topological invariants play an important r\^{o}le in the theory of gravitational lensing by constraining the image number. Furthermore, it is known that, for certain lens models, the image magnifications $\mu_i$ obey invariants of the form…
