It has been proposed that any coupling constant in a covariant action can be treated as a conserved charge by promoting the coupling constant to auxiliary fields, typically realized by a scalar field paired with a higher-form gauge field.…
In a previous paper we showed that the electromagnetic superenergy tensor, the Chevreton tensor, gives rise to a conserved current when there is a hypersurface orthogonal Killing vector present. In addition, the current is proportional to…
In this work we take into consideration a generalization of Gauge Theories based on the analysis of the structural characteristics of Maxwell theory, which can be considered as the prototype of such kind of theories (Maxwell-like). Such…
Magnetic fields in upper main-sequence stars, white dwarfs, and neutron stars are known to persist for timescales comparable to their lifetimes. From a theoretical perspective this is problematic, as it can be shown that simple magnetic…
We propose a new class of higher derivative scalar-tensor theories without the Ostrogradsky's ghost instabilities. The construction of our theory is originally motivated by a scalar field with spacelike gradient, which enables us to fix a…
We consider inclusion of interactions between the higher derivative extended Chern-Simons and charged scalar field. We demonstrate that the order $N$ extended Chern-Simons and order $2n$ charged scalar admit the $(N+n)$-parameter series of…
