The traditional standard theory of quantum mechanics is unable to solve the spin-statistics problem, i.e. to justify the utterly important \qo{Pauli Exclusion Principle} but by the adoption of the complex standard relativistic quantum field…

We discuss the cosmological evolution of the Weyl conformal geometry and its associated Weyl quadratic gravity. The Einstein gravity (with a positive cosmological constant) is recovered in the spontaneously broken phase of Weyl gravity;…

We construct a Weyl x SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y invariant theory by extending four-dimensional Weyl quadratic gravity with Weyl-invariant scalar, fermion, Yukawa and gauge sectors. The quadratic structure (R^tilde - mu^2 |phi|^2)^2 allows the Weyl…

We set analytical constraints on the parameter space of models of gravity containing a term quadratic in Weyl curvature $-\alpha C^2$. In this class of models, there are four propagating tensorial degrees of freedom, two vector degrees of…

We apply a new and mathematically rigorous method for the quantization of constrained systems to two-dimensional gauge theories. In this method, which quantizes Marsden-Weinstein symplectic reduction, the inner product on the physical state…

A variety of quantum systems exhibits Weyl points in their spectra where two bands cross in a point of three-dimensional parameters space with conical dispersion in the vicinity of the point. We consider theoretically the soft constraint…

In this paper we explore the physical consequences of assuming Weyl invariance of the laws of gravity from the classical standpoint exclusively. Actual Weyl invariance requires to replace the underlying Riemannian geometrical structure of…

Just after Weyl's paper (Weyl in Gravitation und Elektrizit\"at, Sitzungsber. Preuss. Akad., Berlin, 1918) Einstein claimed that a gravity model written in a spacetime geometry with non-metricity suffers from a phenomenon, the so-called…

We study the Moyal quantization for the constrained system. One of the purposes is to give a proper definition of the Wigner-Weyl(WW) correspondence, which connects the Weyl symbols with the corresponding quantum operators. A Hamiltonian in…

The divergence of the constraint quantities is a major problem in computational gravity today. Apparently, there are two sources for constraint violations. The use of boundary conditions which are not compatible with the constraint…

Weyl geometry is a natural extension of conformal geometry with Weyl covariance mediated by a Weyl connection. We generalize the Fefferman-Graham (FG) ambient construction for conformal manifolds to a corresponding construction for Weyl…

For quantum observables $H$ truncated on the range of orthogonal projections $\Pi_N$ of rank $N$, we study the corresponding Weyl symbol in the phase space in the semiclassical limit of vanishing Planck constant $\hbar\to0$ and large…

We discuss the generalization of the local renormalization group approach to theories in which Weyl symmetry is gauged. These theories naturally correspond to scale invariant - rather than conformal invariant - models in the flat space…
