In this paper the conditions, under which non-topological solitons are absent in the Yang-Mills theory coupled to a non-linear scalar field in Minkowski space, are obtained in a very simple way. It is also shown that non-topological…

We formalize Feynman's construction of the quantum mechanical path integral. To do this, we shift the emphasis in differential geometry from the tangent bundle onto the pair groupoid. This allows us to use the van Est map and the piecewise…
By doing a small $c$ (speed of light) expansion of $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills fields, we construct two different electric and two different magnetic sectors actions of Carrollian Yang-Mills theory. For both electric and magnetic cases, one sector…

We consider the approach to gravity in which four-dimensional curved spacetime is represented by a surface in a flat Minkowski space of higher dimension. After a short overview of the ideas and results of such an approach we concentrate on…
We study the Hamilton formalism for Connes-Lott models, i.e., for Yang-Mills theory in non-commutative geometry. The starting point is an associative $*$-algebra $\cA$ which is of the form $\cA=C(I,\cAs)$ where $\cAs$ is itself a…
