We argue that the non gauge invariant coupling between torsion and the Maxwell or Yang-Mills fields in Einstein-Cartan theory can not be ignored. Arguments based in the existence of normal frames in neighbourhoods, and an approximation to a…

Chiral gauge anomalies on noncommutative Minkowski Space-time are computed and have their origin elucidated. The consistent form and the covariant form of the anomaly are obtained. Both Fujikawa's method and Feynman diagram techniques are…
We show how the coupling of SO(N) gauge fields to galileons arises from a probe brane construction. The galileons arise from the brane bending modes of a brane probing a co-dimension N bulk, and the gauge fields arise by turning on certain…
We perform a canonical quantization of gravity in a second-order formulation, taking as configuration variables those describing a 4-bein, not adapted to the space-time splitting. We outline how, neither if we fix the Lorentz frame before…
An explanation for the large random velocities of pulsars is presented. Like many other models, we propose that the momentum imparted to the star is given at birth. The ultimate source of energy is provided by the intense optically thick…

We study the evolution of matter density perturbations in Galileon cosmology where the late-time cosmic acceleration can be realized by a field kinetic energy. We obtain full perturbation equations at linear order in the presence of five…
We reassess foundational aspects of Metric-Affine Gravity (MAG) in light of the Dressing Field Method, a tool allowing to systematically build gauge-invariant field variables. To get MAG started, one has to deal with the problem of "gauge…
A gauge-invariant field is found which describes physical configurations, i.e. gauge orbits, of non-Abelian gauge theories. This is accomplished with non-Abelian generalizations of the Poincare'-Hodge formula for one-forms. In a particular…
We show the inconsistency of the argument linking the integral quantum Hall effect to gauge invariance. The inconsistency mainly consists of equating gauge and real vector potential transformations for a particular system geometry. Correct…
At second-order, scalar perturbations can source traceless and transverse perturbations to the metric, called induced gravitational waves (IGW). The apparent gauge-dependence of the IGW obscures the interpretation of the stochastic…

This work investigates the dynamics of a charged scalar boson in the Melvin universe by solving the Klein-Gordon equation with minimal coupling in both inertial and non-inertial frames. Non-inertial effects are introduced through a rotating…
It is well-known that the original lattice Boltzmann (LB) equation deviates from the Navier-Stokes equations due to an unphysical velocity dependent viscosity. This unphysical dependency violates the Galilean invariance and limits the…
A new force is proposed in order to explain galactic rotation curves. CPT is chosen as the underlying symmetry of the new force because it is a universal spacetime symmetry. Local CPT transformations are presented for the Dirac field…
