In this work we study how scalar fields may affect solar observables, and use the constraint on the Sun's central temperature to extract bounds on the parameters of relevant models. Also, a scalar field driven by a suitable potential is…

We constructed a simple cosmological model which approximates the Einstein-de Sitter background with periodically distributed dust inhomogeneities. By taking the metric as a power series up to the third order in some perturbative parameter…

We address two central open problems in the theory of anomalous Mpemba-like relaxations: their extension beyond one spatial dimension and their consistent formulation in the thermodynamic limit. Our framework is the antiferromagnetic Ising…
In a conformal field theory with weakly broken higher spin symmetry, the leading order anomalous dimensions of the broken currents can be efficiently determined from the structure of the classical non-conservation equations. We apply this…
We apply the $\delta$-expansion perturbation scheme to the $\lambda \phi^{4}$ self-interacting scalar field theory in 3+1 D at finite temperature. In the $\delta$-expansion the interaction term is written as $\lambda (\phi^{2})^{ 1 +…
During a de Sitter stage of expansion the spectator fields of different spin are constrained by the critical density bound and by further requirements determined by their specific physical nature. The evolution of spectator electric fields…
We investigate de Sitter/conformal field theory (dS/CFT) correspondence in two dimensions. We define the conserved mass of de Sitter spacetime and formulate the correspondence along the lines of anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory…
Scalar perturbations of Friedmann-Lemaitre cosmologies can be analyzed in a variety of ways using Einstein's field equations, the Ricci and Bianchi identities, or the conservation equations for the stress-energy tensor, and possibly…
The Ashkin-Teller model can be formulated as a pair of 2D Ising models, interacting via a four-spin interaction. I consider the case of weak anisotropy (slight a-symmetry between the two Ising layers) and weak coupling. I show that the…
The asymptotical behavior of physical quantities, like the order parameter, the replicon and longitudinal masses, is studied around the zero-field spin glass transition point when a small external magnetic field is applied. An effective…
Equilibrium finite temperature observables of a CFT can be described by a local effective action for background fields -- a "thermal effective action." This effective action determines the asymptotic density of states of a CFT as a detailed…
