A novel differential calculus with central inner product is introduced for kappa-Minkowski space. The `bad' behaviour of this differential calculus is discussed with reference to symplectic quantisation and A-infinity algebras. Using this…
In this note we analyse two different models of two interacting conformal Carroll particles that can be obtained as the Carrollian limit of two relativistic conformal particles. The first model describes particles with zero velocity and…
We construct examples of renormalizable Carrollian theories with finite effective central charge and non-trivial dynamics. These include critical points that are not scale-invariant but rather exhibit hyperscaling violation. All of our…
We construct a new class of perturbative asymptotically Anti-de Sitter pp-wave spacetimes by performing a long-wavelength expansion of Kaigorodov metrics in arbitrary spacetime dimensions. Holographically, these spacetimes are described by…
The asymptotic structure of three-dimensional Carroll gravity with negative cosmological constant is studied. We formulate a consistent set of boundary conditions preserved by an infinite-dimensional extension of the AdS$_3$ Carroll…
We examine the cosmological implications of space-time non-commutativity, discovering yet another realization of the varying speed of light model. Our starting point is the well-known fact that non-commutativity leads to deformed dispersion…
We study the thermodynamics of Einstein gravity with vanishing cosmological constant subjected to conformal boundary conditions. Our focus is on comparing the series of subextensive terms to predictions from thermal effective field theory,…
Recently, a morphological transition in the velocity distribution of a relativistic gas has been pointed out which shows hallmarks of a critical phenomenon. Here, we provide a general framework which allows for a thermodynamic approach to…
We study a new approach to generally covariant quantum mechanics applied in the case of an FLRW cosmological background. For positive spatial curvature we find a discrete series of solutions of the Klein-Gordon equation that can reasonably…
We classify and relate unitary irreducible representations (UIRs) of the Carroll and dipole groups, i.e., we define elementary quantum Carroll and fracton particles and establish a correspondence between them. Whenever possible, we express…
We describe Carroll particles with nonzero energy (i.e., particles that remain at rest) within the framework of two-time (2T) physics developed by Bars and collaborators. In a spacetime with one additional time and one additional space…
We investigate aspects of non-equilibrium dynamics of strongly coupled field theories within holography. We establish a hydrodynamic description for anomalous quantum field theories subject to a strong external field for the first time in…
We study string propagation in an anisotropic, cosmological background. We solve the equations of motion and the constraints by performing a perturbative expansion of the string coordinates in powers of c^2, the world-sheet speed of light.…
Asymptotic symmetries of electric and magnetic Carrollian gravitational theories with a negative cosmological constant $\Lambda$ are analyzed in 3+1 space-time dimensions. In the magnetic theory, the asymptotic symmetry algebra is given by…
We attempt to find new symmetries in the space-time structure, leading to a modified gravitation at large length scales, which provides the foundations of a quantum gravity at very low energies. This search begins by considering a unified…
We construct rotating black holes in Carroll gravity using two distinct approaches. In one of them, we exploit the freedom in the Carroll compatible connection to encode rotation. In particular, we construct rotating solutions in magnetic…
We propose definitions for covariance and local Lorentz invariance applicable when the speed of light $c$ is allowed to vary. They have the merit of retaining only those aspects of the usual definitions which are invariant under unit…
We investigate anisotropic conformal Carroll field theories and their holographic duals. On the field theory side, we focus on the case with scaling exponent $z=0$ in two and three spacetime dimensions. These theories exhibit…
Conformal Carrollian groups are known to be isomorphic to Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) groups that arise as the asymptotic symmetries at the null boundary of Minkowski spacetime. The Carrollian algebra is obtained from the Poincare algebra by…
According to the black hole membrane paradigm, the black hole event horizon behaves like a 2+1 dimensional fluid. The fluid has nonzero momentum density but zero velocity. As a result, it does not respond to tidal forces in the usual way.…
