There is a conjecture in the literature that indicates the tree-level S-matrix elements of graviton become symmetric under the $SL(2,Z)$ transformation after including the loops and the nonperturbative effects. Using the Ward identity…
We examine the impact of adding a Coulomb term to a constrained system of 147 particles interacting via a Lennard-Jones (LJ) potential, finding that the inclusion of the coulombic interaction produces a shift, but no qualitative changes in…
We evaluate the covariance matrix of the matter power spectrum using perturbation theory up to dominant terms at 1-loop order and compare it to numerical simulations. We decompose the covariance matrix into the disconnected (Gaussian) part,…
Motivated by the work of Kalloniatis, Pauli and Pinsky, we consider the theory of light-cone quantized $QCD_{1+1}$ on a spatial circle with periodic and anti-periodic boundary conditions on the gluon and quark fields respectively. This…
We develop the continuum mechanics of quantum many-body systems in the linear response regime. The basic variable of the theory is the displacement field, for which we derive a closed equation of motion under the assumption that the…
Commutative $d$-torsion $K$-theory is a variant of topological $K$-theory constructed from commuting unitary matrices of order dividing $d$. Such matrices appear as solutions of linear constraint systems that play a role in the study of…
The influence of Coulomb interaction on transport properties of spinless electrons in small disordered two dimensional systems is studied within a tight binding model. Spatial correlations, inverse participation ratio, and multifractal…
In this paper we make an SL(2,Z)-covariant generalisation of the noncommutative theories, NCYM and NCOS on the D3-brane, and NCOS on the D5-brane in type IIB. Usually, the noncommutative theories are obtained by studying perturbative…
The S-matrix is invariant with respect to the variation of any (global) parameter involved in the gauge fixing conditions, if that variation is accompanied by a certain redefinition of the basis of polarization vectors. Renormalizability of…
We investigate the transition form factors between nucleon and $\Delta$(1232) particles by using a covariant quark-spectator-diquark field theory model in (3+1) dimensions. Performing a light-front calculation in parallel with the…
We develop a rigorous theory of external influences on finite discrete dynamical systems, going beyond the perturbation paradigm, in that the external influence need not be a small contribution. Indeed, the covariance condition can be…
The recent discovery of non-perturbatively stable two-dimensional string backgrounds and their dual matrix models allows the study of complete scattering matrices in string theory. In this note we adapt work of Moore, Plesser, and Ramgoolam…
In this paper we consider a reduction of a non-homogeneous linear system of first order operator equations to a totally reduced system. Obtained results are applied to Cauchy problem for linear differential systems with constant…
We provide a new method to construct the S-matrix in quantum field theory. This method implements crossing symmetry manifestly by erasing the a priori distinction between in- and out-states. It allows the description of processes where the…
We discuss the obstacles for defining a set of observable quantities analogous to an S-matrix which are needed to formulate string theory in an accelerating universe. We show that the quintessence models with the equations of state $-1 < w…
The zero modes and zero resonances of the Dirac operator $H=\alpha\cdot D + Q(x)$ are discussed, where $\alpha= (\alpha_1, \alpha_2, \alpha_3)$ is the triple of $4 \times 4$ Dirac matrices, $ D=\frac{1}{i} \nabla_x$, and $Q(x)=\big(q_{jk}…
We consider constraints on the S-matrix of any gapped, Lorentz invariant quantum field theory in 1 + 1 dimensions due to crossing symmetry and unitarity. In this way we establish rigorous bounds on the cubic couplings of a given theory with…
We formalize a notion of discrete Lorentz transforms for Quantum Walks (QW) and Quantum Cellular Automata (QCA), in (1 + 1)-dimensional discrete spacetime. The theory admits a diagrammatic representation in terms of a few local, circuit…
We analyze Mode Coupling discontinuous transition in the limit of vanishing discontinuity, approaching the so called "$A_3$" point. In these conditions structural relaxation and fluctuations appear to have universal form independent from…
The effective action for the membrane dynamics on the background geometry of the $N$-sector DLCQ $M$ theory compactified on a two-torus is computed via supergravity. We compare it to the effective action obtained from the matrix theory,…
