Dilatation, i.e. scale, symmetry in the presence of the dilaton in Minkowski space is derived from diffeomorphism symmetry in curved spacetime, incorporating the volume-preserving diffeomorphisms. The conditions for scale invariance are…

Hadrons are located at the orthogonal intersections of 4-branes that wrap 1-cycles of a rectangular compact space. The 4-branes are arranged in a regular network. We reveal the conspicuous locations on the rectangle of the lightest mesons,…

In this paper we consider $\phi^2$ scalar field potential as a candidate to dark matter. If it is an ultralight boson particle, it condensates like a Bose-Einstein system at very early times and forms the basic structure of the Universe.…
