Different approaches to define transverse-momentum dependent parton distribution functions are considered from the point of view of their renormalization-group properties. The associated one-loop anomalous dimensions of these quantities are…
A complete and systematic approach to compute the causal boundary of wave-type spacetimes is carried out. The case of a 1-dimensional boundary is specially analyzed and its critical appearance in pp-wave type spacetimes is emphasized. In…
The electromagnetic wave propagation in an anisotropic dielectric media with two generic matrices $\epsilon^{ij}$ and $\mu^{ij}$ of permittivity and permeability is studied. These matrices are not required to be symmetric, positive…
We report on an experimental investigation of the propagation of gravity-capillary waves in a narrow channel with a pinned contact line. By using Fourier Transform Profilometry (FTP) we measure the static curved meniscus as well as the…
Geometrical approach to the phenomenological theory of phase transitions of the second kind at constant pressure $P$ and variable temperature $T$ is proposed. Equilibrium states of a system at zero external field and fixed $P$ and $T$ are…
We discuss the propagation of gravitational waves in a recently discussed class of theories containing N >= 2 metric tensors and a corresponding number of standard model copies. Using the formalism of gauge-invariant linear perturbation…
Somewhat surprisingly, in many of the widely used monographs and review articles the term Transverse-Traceless modes of linearized gravitational waves is used to denote two entirely different notions. These treatments generally begin with a…
According to Penrose, the fundamental conflict between the superposition principle of quantum mechanics and the principle of general covariance of general relativity entails the existence of wavefunction collapse, e.g. a quantum…
The relationship between $T\bar{T}$ deformations and the uniform light-cone gauge, first noted in arXiv:1804.01998, provides a powerful generating technique for deformed models. We recall this construction, distinguishing between changes of…
We study extensions of N-wave systems with PT-symmetry. The types of (nonlocal) reductions leading to integrable equations invariant with respect to P- (spatial reflection) and T- (time reversal) symmetries is described. The corresponding…
4D cylindrical gravitational waves with aligned polarizations (Einstein-Rosen waves) are shown to be described by a weight 1/2 massive free field on the double cover of AdS_2. Thorn's C-energy is one of the sl(2,R) generators, the…
We define and study the $T\bar{T}$ deformation of a random matrix model, showing a consistent definition requires the inclusion of both the perturbative and non-perturbative solutions to the flow equation. The deformed model is well defined…
In a modified gravity theory, the propagation equation of gravitational waves will be presented in a non-standard way. Therefore this tenor mode perturbation of time-space, as a complement to the scalar mode perturbation, provides a unique…
We summarize the renormalization-group properties of transverse-momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribution functions (PDF)s arguing that in the light-cone gauge the overlapping ultraviolet and rapidity divergences cannot be solely…
We consider generalised pp-waves with purely axial torsion, which we previously showed to be new vacuum solutions of quadratic metric-affine gravity. Our analysis shows that classical pp-waves of parallel Ricci curvature should not be…
Standard practice attempts to remove coordinate influence in physics through the use of invariant equations. Trans-coordinate physics proceeds differently by not introducing space-time coordinates in the first place. Differentials taken…
When dealing with highly accurate modeling of time and frequency transfers into arbitrarily moving dielectrics medium, it may be convenient to work with Gordon's optical spacetime metric rather than the usual physical spacetime metric.…
In a series of recent papers we developed a formulation of general relativity in which spacetime and the dynamics of matter evolve with a Poincar\'e invariant parameter $\tau$. In this paper, we apply the formalism to derive the metric…
We introduce two tractable analytical models to describe dynamic effects at resonant light scattering by subwavelength particles. One of them is based on generalization of the temporal coupled-mode theory, and the other employs the normal…
Run-and-tumble particles (RTPs) have emerged as a paradigmatic example for studying nonequilibrium phenomena in statistical mechanics. The invariant measure of a wide class of RTPs subjected to a potential possesses a density that is…
