We prove a precise form of AdS bulk locality by deriving analytical two-sided bounds on bulk Wilson coefficients. Our bounds are on the Wilson coefficients themselves, rather than their ratios, as is typically found in the literature.…
Following Pasterski-Shao-Strominger we construct a new basis of states in the single-particle Hilbert space of massless particles as a linear combination of standard Wigner states. Under Lorentz transformation the new basis states transform…
We use Hamiltonian methods to study curved domain walls and cosmologies. This leads naturally to first order equations for all domain walls and cosmologies foliated by slices of maximal symmetry. For Minkowski and AdS-sliced domain walls…
The noncommutative space of light-like worldlines that is covariant under the light-like (or null-plane) $\kappa$-deformation of the (3+1) Poincar\'e group is fully constructed as the quantization of the corresponding Poisson homogeneous…
We show that an ansatz for $1+3+n$ dimensional static spacetime with spherical symmetry in three dimensions and Euclidean symmetry in $n$ dimensions, parametrized by only one function of radial coordinate, leads to a limited set of vacuum…
The space K^n of all n-dimensional { Lie} algebras has a natural non-Hausdorff topology k^n, which has characteristic limits, called transitions, A -> B, between distinct Lie algebras A and B. The entity of these transitions are the natural…
In many supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model the spectrum of states contains stable non-topological solitons, Q-balls. If formed in the Early Universe in sufficient amounts, Q-balls now contribute to cold dark matter. We discuss…
We describe how conformal Minkowski, dS- and AdS-spaces can be united into a single submanifold [N] of RP^5. It is the set of generators of the null cone in M^{2,4}. Conformal transformations on the Mink-, dS- and AdS-spaces are induced by…
Maximally supersymmetric spacetime algebras in eleven-dimensions, which are the isometry superalgebras of Minkowski space, AdS_7 x S^4, AdS_4 x S^7 and pp-wave background, are related by Inonu-Wigner contractions. The super-AdS_{4(7)} x…
Previous studies of the semilinear wave equation in Minkowski space have shown a type of critical behavior in which large initial data collapse to singularity formation due to nonlinearities while small initial data does not. Numerical…
A generic spacetime topology contains timelike boundaries. Making use of two such boundaries, we formulate a microscopic holographic dual that captures cosmological spacetime beyond the cosmic horizon patch, including the future wedge. We…
The NP constants of massless spin-0 fields propagating in Minkowski spacetime are computed close to spatial and null infinity by means of Friedrich's \emph{$i^0$-cylinder}. Assuming certain regularity condition on the initial data ensuring…
It is shown that the infinite tower of tree-level soft graviton symmetries in asymptotically flat 4D quantum gravity can be organized into a single chiral 2D Kac-Moody symmetry based on the wedge algebra of w(1+infinity). The infinite…
We study solutions of the Klein-Gordon, Maxwell, and linearized Einstein equations in $\mathbb{R}^{1,d+1}$ that transform as $d$-dimensional conformal primaries under the Lorentz group $SO(1,d+1)$. Such solutions, called conformal primary…
Using the concept of real tunneling configurations (classical signature change) and nucleation energy, we explore the consequences of an alternative minimization procedure for the Euclidean action in multiple-dimensional quantum cosmology.…
The discrete phase space and continuous time representation of relativistic quantum mechanics is further investigated here as a continuation of paper I [1]. The main mathematical construct used here will be that of an area-filling Peano…
In this paper, we prove the global nonlinear stability of Minkowski space in the context of the spacelike-characteristic Cauchy problem for Einstein vacuum equations. Spacelike-characteristic initial data are posed on a compact 3-disk and…
Spacetimes obtained by dimensional reduction along lattices containing a lightlike direction can admit semigroup extensions of their isometry groups. We show by concrete examples that such a semigroup can exhibit a natural order, which in…
We mainly study real Klein-Gordon theory on Anti de Sitter spacetimes, and apply the General Boundary Formulation (GBF) of Quantum Theory in order to compute a radial S-matrix. We consider first the classical theory, giving a complete list…
In 2507.17558, we provide a map from a scalar theory on $(D+2)$-dimensional Minkowski spacetime to a scalar theory with a continuous mass spectrum on $(D+1)$-dimensional de Sitter spacetime, and propose a link between celestial amplitudes…
