We consider theories which break the invariance under diffeomorphisms (Diff) down to transverse diffeomorphisms (TDiff) in the matter sector, consisting of multiple scalar fields. In particular, we regard shift-symmetric models with two…

We extend ideas developed for the loop representation of quantum gravity to diffeomorphism-invariant gauge theories coupled to fermions. Let P -> Sigma be a principal G-bundle over space and let F be a vector bundle associated to P whose…

We outline a new, systematic way of constructing and analysing field theories, where all possible continuous symmetries of a given model are derived using the method of Lie point symmetries. If the model has free parameters, and…
