We discuss various symmetry properties of the Lagrangian density of a four (3 + 1)-dimensional (4D) free Abelian 2-form gauge theory within the framework of Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) formalism. The present free Abelian gauge theory…

We present a general model of interacting metric fields with the sum of massless non-interacting spin 2 fields as the linear limit. In the non-interacting limit the model is reduced to a sum of general relativity actions, with the usual…

Itinerant ferromagnetism, i.e. spontaneous polarization of non-localized particles, is expected to occur for strong repulsive interactions in a spin-1/2 Fermi system. However, this state has proven notoriously hard to find experimentally,…
The antibracket in BRST theory is known to define a map $\rm{H^p \times H^q \longrightarrow H^{p+q+1}}$ associating with two equivalence classes of BRST invariant observables of respective ghost number p and q an equivalence class of BRST…
We consider the null-plane dynamics for a reduced-order version of the higher-derivatives Bopp-Podoslky generalized electrodynamics model. By introducing an auxiliary vector field, we achieve a simpler equivalent version with lower…
One of the main objectives of equilibrium state statistical physics is to analyze which symmetries of an interacting particle system in equilibrium are broken or conserved. Here we present a general result on the conservation of…
Let $G$ be a closed permutation group on a countably infinite set $\Omega$, which acts transitively but not highly transitively. If $G$ is oligomorphic, has no algebraicity and weakly eliminates imaginaries, we prove that any probability…
We show that the BRST/anti-BRST invariant 3+1 dimensional 2-form gauge theory has further nilpotent symmetries (dual BRST /anti-dual BRST) that leave the gauge fixing term invariant. The generator for the dual BRST symmetry is analogous to…
