For nonlinear models of an Abelian vector supermultiplet coupled to N = 2 supergravity in four dimensions, we formulate the self-duality equation which expresses invariance under U(1) duality rotations. In the flat space limit, this…
The non-linear duality relation between the gravity and dual gravity fields are found in E theory by carrying out $E_{11}$ variations of previously found duality relations. We also find the dual graviton equation of motion up to the…
A self-consistent non-minimal non-Abelian Einstein-Yang-Mills model, containing three phenomenological coupling constants, is formulated. The ansatz of a vanishing Yang-Mills induction is considered as a particular case of the self-duality…
Non-abelian higher gauge theory has recently emerged as a generalization of standard gauge theory to higher dimensional (2-dimensional in the present context) connection forms, and as such, it has been successfully applied to the…
Quantum field theories provide fundamental models of complex interacting systems, from high-energy physics and cosmology to condensed matter. However, solving these models in non-perturbative and dynamical regimes is often extremely…

We give the Lagrangian formulation of a generic non-minimally extended Einstein-Maxwell theory with an action that is linear in the curvature and quadratic in the electromagnetic field. We derive the coupled field equations by a first order…

A model of two--dimensional gravity with an action depending only on a linear connection is considered. This model is a topological one, in the sense that the classical action does not contain a metric or zweibein at all. A metric and an…
Known as a symmetry of vacuum Maxwell equations, the electric-magnetic duality can be lifted actually to a symmetry of an action. The Lagrangian of this action is written in terms of two vector potentials, one electric and one magnetic, and…
A non-abelian generalisation of a theory of gravity coupled to a 2-form gauge field and a dilaton is found, in which the metric and 3-form field strength are Lie algebra-valued. In the abelian limit, the curvature with torsion is self-dual…
In this thesis we analyze extensions of classical electromagnetic dualities to the noncommutative (NC) 3D and 4D space-times. It is known that the noncomutativity parameter theta becomes its Hodge dual *theta through the NC 4D…
We show that three-dimensional General Relativity, augmented with two vector fields, allows for a non-relativistic limit, different from the standard limit leading to Newtonian gravity, that results into a well-defined action which is of…
We examine three versions of non-relativistic electrodynamics, known as the electric and magnetic limit theories of Maxwell's equations and Galilean electrodynamics (GED) which is the off-shell non-relativistic limit of Maxwell plus a free…

We study a tachyon model with non-minimal derivative coupling to gravity in the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker flat cosmology. We propose the special re-definition of the tachyon field which allows us to represent tachyon field equation…
By resolving the Riemann curvature relative to a unit timelike vector into electric and magnetic parts, we consider duality relations analogous to the electromagnetic theory. It turns out that the duality symmetry of the Einstein action…
