Direct calculation of the one-loop contributions to the energy density of bosonic and supersymmetric phi-to-the-fourth kinks exhibits: (1) Local mode regularization. Requiring the mode density in the kink and the trivial sectors to be equal…
We consider the total energy decay together with L^2-bound of the solution itself of the Cauchy problem for wave equations with a localized damping and a short-range potential. We treat it in the one dimensional Euclidean space R. We adopt…
We derive new inequalities between the boundary capacity of an asymptotically flat 3-manifold with nonnegative scalar curvature and boundary quantities that relate to quasi-local mass; one relates to Brown--York mass and the other is new.…
We consider models of bosons on curved 3+1 dimensional space-time embedded in a higher dimensional flat ambient space. We propose to derive (rather than postulate) equations of motions by assuming that a standard Klein-Gordon field on…
There are two important statements regarding the Trautman-Bondi mass at null infinity: one is the positivity, and the other is the Bondi mass loss formula, which are both global in nature. In this note, we compute the limit of the Wang-Yau…
We examine the Kaluza-Klein theory for warped flux compactifications of type $II\ b $ string theory on a Minkowski spacetime $ M_4$ times a conic Calabi-Yau orientifold $X_6$. The region glued along the internal space directions to the bulk…
We review recent progress in understanding the notion of locality in integrable quantum lattice systems. The central concept are the so-called quasilocal conserved quantities, which go beyond the standard perception of locality. Two…
The purpose of this work is to investigate root finding problems defined on (quasi-)metric spaces, and ranging in Euclidean spaces. The motivation for this line of inquiry stems from recent models in biology and phylogenetics, where…
The quantisation of a scalar field in the five-dimensional model suggested by Randall and Sundrum is considered. Using the Kaluza-Klein reduction of the scalar field, discussed by Goldberger and Wise, we sum the infinite tower of modes to…
We propose a definition of quasi-local mass based on the Penrose Inequality. Two further definitions are given by measuring distortions of the exponential map.
In this second part of the paper, dedicated to theories with extra dimensions, a new physical notion about the "tensor length scale" is introduced, based on the gravitational theories with covariant and contravariant metric tensor…
Recently Brown and York have devised a new method for defining quasilocal energy in general relativity. Their method yields expressions for the quasilocal energy and momentum surface densities associated with the two-boundary of a spacelike…
We study on the third quantization of a Kaluza-Klein toy model. In this model time ($x$) is defined by the scale factor of universe, and the space coordinate ($y$) is defined by the ratio of the scales of the ordinary space and the internal…
We present a kinetic energy tensor that unifies a scalar kinetic energy density commonly used in meta-Generalized Gradient Approximation functionals and the vorticity density that appears in paramagnetic current-density-functional theory.…
The classical value of the Hamiltonian for a system with timelike boundary has been interpreted as a quasilocal energy. This quasilocal energy is not positive definite. However, we derive a `quasilocal dominant energy condition' which is…
The bicrossproduct model \lambda-Minkowski (or `\kappa-Minkowski') quantum spacetime has an anomaly for the action of the Poincar\'e quantum group which was resolved by an extra cotangent direction \theta' not visible classically. We show…
We compactify the ten-dimensional spacetime in heterotic supergravity leaving four-dimensional Minkowski spacetime. We search for nonsupersymmetric, non-Ricci-flat solutions of the equations of motion with the quadratic curvature term. By…
In this article, we study the small sphere limit of the Wang-Yau quasi-local energy defined in [18,19]. Given a point $p$ in a spacetime $N$, we consider a canonical family of surfaces approaching $p$ along its future null cone and evaluate…
Beginning with the Pauli-Fierz theory, we construct a model for multi-graviton theory. Couplings between gravitons belonging to nearest-neighbor ``theory spaces'' lead to a discrete mass spectrum. Our model coincides with the Kaluza-Klein…
We show that the quasilocal mass defined by Wang and Yau is not well-defined at spatial infinity. It approaches neither the ADM mass nor the ADM energy. We suggest an alternative scheme which retains all the desirable characteristics of the…
