We review efforts in string model building, focusing on the heterotic orbifold compactifications. We survey how one can, starting from an explicit string theory, obtain models which resemble Nature. These models exhibit the standard model…
The lambda model is a one parameter deformation of the principal chiral model that arises when regularizing the non-compactness of a non-abelian T dual in string theory. It is a current-current deformation of a WZW model that is known to be…
The symplectic quantization technique is applied to open free membrane and strings in pp-wave background and background gauge field obtained by compactifying the open membrane in the presence of a background anti-symmetric 3--form field. In…
Non commutative superspaces can be introduced as the Moyal-Weyl quantization of a Poisson bracket for classical superfields. Different deformations are studied corresponding to constant background fields in string theory. Supersymmetric and…
The Hamiltonian analysis of Polyakov action is reviewed putting emphasis in two topics: Dirac observables and gauge conditions. In the case of the closed string it is computed the change of its action induced by the gauge transformation…
We introduce a natural nondegeneracy condition for Poisson structures, called holonomicity, which is closely related to the notion of a log symplectic form. Holonomic Poisson manifolds are privileged by the fact that their deformation…
In this paper we view the sigma-model couplings of appropriate vertex operators describing the interaction of string matter with a certain type of string solitons (0-branes) as the quantum phase space of a point particle. The sigma-model is…
Nonrelativistic quantum mechanics and conformal quantum mechanics are deformed through a Jordanian twist. The deformed space coordinates satisfy the Snyder noncommutativity. The resulting deformed Hamiltonians are pseudo-Hermitian…
The multisymplectic Hamiltonian formalism is a generalization of the Hamiltonian formalism that manifestly preserves covariance in the description of fields and that has been proposed as a possible framework for developing a…
In this work we examine noncommutativity of position coordinates in classical symplectic mechanics and its quantisation. In coordinates $\{q^i,p_k\}$ the canonical symplectic two-form is $\omega_0=dq^i\wedge dp_i$. It is well known in…
This paper is the sequel to [PTVV] (IHES Vol. 117, 2013). We develop a general and flexible context for differential calculus in derived geometry, including the de Rham algebra and polyvector fields. We then introduce the formalism of…
Poisson electrodynamics is the semi-classical limit of $U(1)$ non-commutative gauge theory. It has been studied so far as a theoretical model, where an external field would be the source of the non-commutative effects in space-time. Being…
In this paper we present a novel approach to the geometric formulation of solid and fluid mechanics within the port-Hamiltonian framework, which extends the standard Hamiltonian formulation to non-conservative and open dynamical systems.…
In this article, we use the language of $\mathbb{P}_0$-factorization algebras to articulate a classical bulk-boundary correspondence between 1) the observables of a Poisson Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) theory on a manifold $N$ and 2) the…
Reparametrization invariant Lagrangian theories with higher derivatives are considered. We investigate the geometric structures behind these theories and construct the Hamiltonian formalism in a geometric way. The Legendre transformation…
Perturbative deformations of symmetry structures on noncommutative spaces are studied in view of noncommutative quantum field theories. The rigidity of enveloping algebras of semi-simple Lie algebras with respect to formal deformations is…
We present a first attempt to apply the approach of deformation quantization to linearized Einstein's equations. We use the analogy with Maxwell equations to derive the field equations of linearized gravity from a modified Maxwell…
Preliminary results toward the analysis of the Hamiltonian structure of multifield theories describing complex materials are mustered: we involve the invariance under the action of a general Lie group of the balance of substructural…
This paper develops new aspects of the interplay between shifted symplectic geometry and classical Poisson geometry, focusing on lagrangian morphisms into 2-shifted symplectic groups. We establish a Lie-type correspondence between such…
We consider the non-trivial boundary conformal field theory with exactly marginal boundary deformation. In recent years this deformation has been studied in the context of rolling tachyons and S-branes in string theory. Here we study the…
