Some formulae for the perturbations of the matter fields are summarized within the framework of the second-order gauge-invariant cosmological perturbation theory in a four dimensional homogeneous isotropic universe, which is developed in…
A five-dimensional theory of relativity is presented which suggests that gravitation and electromagnetism may be unified using a degenerate metric. There are four fields (in the four-dimensional sense): a tensor field, two vector fields and…
The analytic structure of the Regge action on a cone in $d$ dimensions over a boundary of arbitrary topology is determined in simplicial minisuperspace. The minisuperspace is defined by the assignment of a single internal edge length to all…
We examine localized kinetic terms for gauge fields which can propagate into compact extra dimensions. We find that such terms are generated by radiative corrections in both theories with matter fields confined to branes and in theories…
The arguments were given in a number of our papers that the discrete quantum gravity based on the Regge calculus possesses nonzero vacuum expectation values of the triangulation lengths of the order of Plank scale $10^{-33}cm$. These…
We study the ground state wave function for a universe which is topologically a lens space within the Regge calculus approach. By restricting the four dimensional simplicial complex to be a cone over the boundary lens space, described by a…
We consider a new action of a two-dimensional field theory interacting with gravitational field. The action is interpreted as the area of a surface imbedded into four-dimensional Mincowski target space. In addition to reparametrization…
It is shown how the theory of the fields can be constructed in a consistent way in quantized spaces. All constructions are connected with unitary irreducible representations of real forms of six dimensional rotation algebras O(1,5), O(2,4),…
Old folklore says that there is no non-trivial renormalization group fixed point with $U(1)$ gauge symmetry in four dimensions, but it can be circumvented by the existence of magnetic monopoles. We propose to construct (potentially…
In the double field theory, gauge symmetries are realized as generalized diffeomorphisms in the doubled spacetime. By consistency of the theory, dependence of tensor fields on the doubled coordinates is strongly constrained. This causes…
On the lattice some of the salient features of pure gauge theories and of gauge theories with fermions in complex representations of the gauge group seem to be lost. These features can be recovered by considering part of the theory in the…
We investigate pinched geometries in a two-dimensional Lorentzian model of quantum Regge calculus (QRC) using the tensor renormalization group (TRG) method. A pinched geometry refers to a configuration with an infinitely long temporal…
A Lorentz and gauge symmetry preserving regularization method is discussed in four dimension based on momentum cutoff. We use the conditions of gauge invariance or equivalently the freedom of shift of the loop momentum to define the…
We propose a version of the 2D Regge calculus, in which the areas of all triangles are equal to each other. In this discretization Lund - Regge measure over link lengths is simplified considerably. Contrary to the usual Regge models with…
The possibility of the existence of small correction terms to the canonical commutation relations and the uncertainty relations has recently found renewed interest. In particular, such correction terms could induce finite lower bounds…
Considered are I class constraints in the tetrad-connection formulation of Regge calculus. One of these is well-known Gauss law which generates rotations in the local frames associated with tetrahedrons in the continuous time 3D section.…
A unified field theory based on the compactification of a higher D-dimensional Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs action is developed. The extra D-4 dimensions form a compact internal space with scale size R. An anomaly-free unified chiral model of…
This is a further explanation of a new and simple renormalization approach recently proposed by the author (hep-th/9708104, Ref. [1], that is somewhat sketchy) for any ordinary QFT (whether renormalizable or not) in any spacetime dimension.…
For scalar field theory, a new generalization of the Exact RG to curved space is proposed, in which the conformal anomaly is explicitly present. Vacuum terms require regularization beyond that present in the canonical formulation of the…
We extend the discussion of arXiv:1007.5254 on massive Regge excitations on the first mass level of four-dimensional superstring theory. For the lightest massive modes of the open string sector, universal supermultiplets common to all…
