There are supersymmetric gauge theories which do not possess any parameters nor flat directions, and hence cannot be studied anywhere in the field space using holomorphy (``non-calculable''). Some of them are believed to break supersymmetry…
We propose a general scheme for separation of variables in the integrable Hamiltonian systems on orbits of the loop algebra $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\Complex)\times \mathcal{P}(\lambda,\lambda^{-1})$. In particular, we illustrate the scheme by…
Many black hole spacetimes with a 3-form field exhibit a hidden symmetry encoded in a torsion generalization of the principal Killing--Yano tensor. This tensor determines basic properties of such black holes while also underlying the…
Scalar, vector and tensor perturbations on the Kerr spacetime are governed by equations that can be solved by separation of variables, but the same is not true in generic stationary and axisymmetric geometries. This complicates the…
We derive the non-relativistic limit of a massive vector field. We show that the Cartesian spatial components of the vector behave as three identical, non-interacting scalar fields. We find classes of spherical, cylindrical, and planar…
We consider the volume of the gauge orbit space for gauge fields on four-dimensional complex projective space. The analysis uses a parametrization of gauge fields where gauge transformations act homogeneously on the fields, facilitating a…
We embed Kerr-Newman-AdS black holes into $\mathcal{N} = 8$ gauged supergravity and study quadratic fluctuations around the black hole backgrounds of all fields in the larger theory. The equations of motion of the perturbations are…
Separable coordinate systems are introduced in the complex and real four-dimensional flat spaces. We use maximal Abelian subgroups to generate coordinate systems with a maximal number of ignorable variables. The results are presented (also…
We investigate the vector, axial and pseudo scalar mass spectrum of an SO(4) - MWT gauge theory with fermions in the vector representation of SO(4). Here we present the preliminary lattice results for the masses of vector and axial vector…
Vector fields can arise in the cosmological context in different ways, and we discuss both abelian and nonabelian sector. In the abelian sector vector fields of the geometrical origin (from dimensional reduction and Einstein-Eddington…
We study properties of a recently proposed new ansatz for separation of variables in the Maxwell equations in four dimensional Kerr-NUT-(A)dS spacetime. We demonstrate that a dual field, which is also a solution of the source-free Maxwell…
We discuss mixing/segregation phenomena in a schematic hard spheres lattice model for binary mixtures of granular media, by analytical evaluation, within Bethe-Peierls approximation, of Edwards' partition function. The presence of…
We consider the problem of the decomposition of the R\'enyi entanglement entropies in theories with a non-abelian symmetry by doing a thorough analysis of Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) models. We first consider $SU(2)_k$ as a case study and then…
In this paper we study the abelian cosets of the H(4) WZW model. They coincide or are related to several interesting three-dimensional backgrounds such as the Melvin model, the conical point-particle space-times and the null orbifold. We…
We propose a new procedure to embed second class systems by introducing Wess-Zumino (WZ) fields in order to unveil hidden symmetries existent in the models. This formalism is based on the direct imposition that the new Hamiltonian must be…
We investigate propagations of graviton and additional scalar on four-dimensional anti de Sitter (AdS$_4$) space using $f(R)$ gravity models with external sources. It is shown that there is the van Dam-Veltman-Zakharov (vDVZ) discontinuity…
Some spontaneously broken gauge theories with left couplings to fermions, like the abelian model that we propose here, can be endowed with a composite scalar sector and Wess-Zumino field ; their quantization in the functionnal integral…
Supersymmetric models, in most cases, suffer from the lack of non-perturbative techniques. Recently, an approach based on Dyson-Schwinger equations has been proposed for the massless Wess-Zumino model. In this case, the equations for the…
We analyze equations describing gravitational waves in the Myers-Perry and Gibbons-Lu-Page-Pope geometries with arbitrary rotation parameters. Assuming that at least one rotation parameter vanishes, we demonstrate full separability of…
Theories with more than one scalar field often exhibit phase transitions producing potentially detectable gravitational wave (GW) signal. In this work we study the semi-annihilating $\mathbb{Z}_3$ dark matter model, whose dark sector…
