This is a brief review where some basic elements of non-commutative geometry are given. The rules and ingredients that enter in the construction of the standard model and grand unification models in non-commutative geometry are summarized.…
Harmonic coordinate conditions in stationary asymptotically flat spacetimes with matter sources have more than one solution. The solutions depend on the degree of smoothness of the metric and its first derivatives, which we wish to impose…
In the event symmetric approach to quantum gravity it is assumed that the fundamental laws of physics must be invariant under exchange of any two space-time events. The fact that this symmetry if obviously not observed is attributed to the…
The symmetries of Unimodular Gravity are clarified somewhat.
In this letter we show a kind of \mt gauge symmetry can be unified into a simple group with the standard model gauge symmetry in the context of coset space unification. We also discuss some implication from one of this kind of unification.
One characteristic feature of many fractonic lattice models, and a defining property of the exotic field theories developed to describe them, are subsystem symmetries including a conservation of not just net electric charge but also…

Physical systems with symmetry arise abundantly in applications, and are endowed with interesting mathematical structures. The present paper focusses on linear reciprocal and input-output Hamiltonian systems. Their characterization is…

Every spacetime is defined by its metric, the mathematical object which further defines the spacetime curvature. From the relativity principle, we have the freedom to choose which coordinate system to write our metric in. Some coordinate…
In this talk I review various notions of generalised global symmetry: higher-form, higher-group, and non-invertible symmetry. All these notions have had profound impact on quantum field theory research in the last decade. I highlight…
We briefly review ideas about ``noncommutativity of space-time'' and approaches toward a corresponding theory of gravity.
The proposed temporal fluctuations model attempt for a unitary vision on gravity, electromagnetism and inertia. On obtain Newton law of gravitation and Coulomb law by starting from simple principles. On obtain too the main results of…
The model of a stationary universe and the notion of local times presented in [10] are reviewed with some alternative formulation of the consistent unification of the Riemannian and Euclidean geometries of general relativity and quantum…
An ensemble with random n-body interactions is investigated in the presence of symmetries. A striking emergence of regularities in spectra, ground state spins and isospins is discovered in both odd and even-particle systems. Various types…
A five-dimensional cosmological theory of gravitation that unifies space, time and velocity is presented
Supersymmetric models with Lorentz violation can be formulated in superspace. Two theories based on the Wess-Zumino model are discussed. A compactification of superspace can be employed to understand the chiral superfield that arises in the…
