We formalise the teleparallel version of extended geometry (including gravity) by the introduction of a complex, the differential of which provides the linearised dynamics. The main point is the natural replacement of the two-derivative…
Non-Hermitian systems have been widely explored in platforms ranging from photonics to electric circuits. A defining feature of non-Hermitian systems is exceptional points (EPs), where both eigenvalues and eigenvectors coalesce. Tropical…
We describe a generic infrastructure for time evolution simulations in numerical relativity using multiple grid patches. After a motivation of this approach, we discuss the relative advantages of global and patch-local tensor bases. We…
In "Classical Electrodynamics" (Jackson) a theorem is proved on the average of an electrostatic or magnetostatic field over a spherical volume. The proof of the theorem is based on an expansion in spherical harmonics and it is useful for…
We investigate the general relativistic phase of an electromagnetic wave as it propagates in the gravitational field of the Earth, which is modeled as an isolated, weakly aspherical gravitating body. We introduce coordinate systems to…
We present the "endpoint" formalism for the calculation of electromagnetic radiation and illustrate its applications in astroparticle physics. We use the formalism to explain why the coherent radiation from the Askaryan effect is not in…
I study the entanglement entropy (EE) across a deformed sphere in conformal field theories (CFTs). I show that the sphere (locally) minimizes the universal term in EE among all shapes. In arXiv:1407.7249 it was derived that the sphere is a…
We revisit the fundamentals of two different methods for calculating classical observables: the eikonal method, which is a scattering amplitude-based method, and the worldline quantum field theory (WQFT) method. The latter has been…
The Eisenhart geometric formalism, which transforms an Euclidean natural Hamiltonian $H=T+V$ into a geodesic Hamiltonian ${\cal T}$ with one additional degree of freedom, is applied to the four families of quadratically superintegrable…
Many real-life signals are defined on spherical domains, in particular in geophysics and physics applications. In this work, we tackle the problem of extending the iterative filtering algorithm, developed for the decomposition of…
We develop the embedding formalism for conformal field theories, aimed at doing computations with symmetric traceless operators of arbitrary spin. We use an index-free notation where tensors are encoded by polynomials in auxiliary…
The Aether Scalar Tensor (AeST) theory is an extension of General Relativity (GR), proposed for addressing galactic and cosmological observations without dark matter. By casting the AeST theory into a $3+1$ form, we determine its full…
The non-Hermitian formalism is used at present in many papers for the description of open quantum systems. A special language developed in this field of physics which makes it difficult for many physicists to follow and to understand the…
In this paper, we discuss gravitational collapse of spherically symmetric spacetimes. We derive a general formalism by taking two arbitrary spherically symmetric spacetimes with $g_{00}=1$. Israel's junction conditions are used to develop…
We point out that results obtained by M. Ribaric and L. Sustersic, hep-th/0403084, and by M. Blasone, P. Jizba and H. Kleinert, quant-ph/0409021, suggest that the path-integral formalism is the key to a derivation of quantum physics from…
In this paper we study a unified formalism for Thermal Quantum Field Theories, i.e., for the Matsubara approach, Thermo Field Dynamics and the Path Ordered Method. To do so, we employ a mechanism akin to the Hawking effect which explores a…
A method is presented for the evaluation of integrals on tetrahedra where the integrand has an integrable singularity at one vertex. The approach uses a transformation to spherical polar coordinates which explicitly eliminates the…
We discuss the Equivalence Theorem (ET) in the BRST formalism. The existence of a local inverse of the field transformation (at least as a formal power expansion) suggests a formulation of the ET, which allows a nilpotent BRST symmetry.…
We present a new evolution system for Einstein's field equations which is based on tetrad fields and conformally compactified hyperboloidal spatial hypersurfaces which reach future null infinity. The boost freedom in the choice of the…
The two-body problem in General Relativity has been the subject of many analytical investigations. After reviewing some of the methods used to tackle this problem (and, more generally, the N-body problem), we focus on a new, recently…
