We present a reformulation of the canonical quantization of gravity, as referred to the minisuperspace; the new approach is based on fixing a Gaussian (or synchronous) reference frame and then quantizing the system via the reconstruction of…
We obtain a dynamical formulation of two-dimensional gravity from a non-Einsteinian phase in higher dimensions $(D=3+2n)$. The formalism is associated with (at least) one extra dimension of vanishing proper length, thus being inequivalent…
Recent work in the literature has shown that general relativity can be formulated in terms of a jet bundle which, in local coordinates, has five entries: local coordinates on Lorentzian space-time, tetrads, connection one-forms,…
We consider a Weyl-invariant formulation of gravity with a cosmological constant in d-dimensional spacetime and show that near two dimensions the classical action reduces to the timelike Liouville action. We show that the renormalized…
Hamiltonian constraints feature in the canonical formulation of general relativity. Unlike typical constraints they cannot be associated with a reduction procedure leading to a non-trivial reduced phase space and this means the physical…
We perform the canonical analysis of the Holst action for general relativity with a cosmological constant without introducing second-class constraints. Our approach consists in identifying the dynamical and nondynamical parts of the…
Einstein action of gravity is obtained from a gauge theory, if our spacetime was once in two folds with a double Lorentz symmetry. After the dual symmetry breaks spontaneously, Lorentz symmetry absorbs gauge symmetry, while the gauge field…
Hamiltonian formulation of the string with dynamical geometry and two-dimensional gravity with torsion is given. Canonical Hamiltonian equals to the linear combination of first class constraints satisfying closed algebra. It is the…
We use a canonical parametrization of twisted geometries describing the classical phase space of loop quantum gravity on a fixed graph, and establish its explicit correspondence with the associated frame bases and spinorial descriptions.…
In this paper we construct manifestly covariant relativistic coherent states on the entire complex plane which reproduce others previously introduced on a given $SL(2,R)$ representation, once a change of variables $z\in C\rightarrow z_D \in…
In these notes, based on the lectures given at 40th Winter School on Theoretical Physics, I review some aspects of Doubly Special Relativity (DSR). In particular, I discuss relation between DSR and quantum gravity, the formal structure of…
The Lorentz transformations are represented on the ball of relativistically admissible velocities by Einstein velocity addition and rotations. This representation is by projective maps. The relativistic dynamic equation can be derived by…
Lorentz covariant generalisations of the notions of supersymmetry, superspace and self-duality are discussed. The essential idea is to extend standard constructions by allowing tangent vectors and coordinates which transform according to…
This work is a continuation of our previous works concerning linear canonical transformations and phase space representation of quantum theory. It is mainly focused on the description of an approach which allows to establish spinorial…
Special relativity is reformulated as a symmetry property of space-time: Space-Time Exchange Invariance. The additional hypothesis of spatial homogeneity is then sufficient to derive the Lorentz transformation without reference to the…
Emergent modified gravity has shown that the canonical formulation of general relativity gives rise to a larger class of covariant modifications than action-based approaches, so far in symmetry-reduced models. This outcome is made possible…
It is well known that the Einstein-Hilbert action in two dimensions is topological and yields an identically vanishing Einstein tensor. Consequently one is faced with difficulties when formulating a non-trivial gravity model. We present a…
We recast the action of pure gravity into a form that is invariant under a twofold Lorentz symmetry. To derive this representation, we construct a general parameterization of all theories equivalent to the Einstein-Hilbert action up to a…
There is a possibility that spacetime itself is ultimately an emergent phenomenon, a near-universal "low-energy long-distance approximation", similar to the way in which fluid mechanics is the near-universal low-energy long-distance…
Doubly Special Relativity (DSR) theory is a recently proposed theory with two observer-independent scales (of velocity and mass), which is to describe a kinematic structure underlining the theory of Quantum Gravity. We observe that there is…
