The construction of field theories with space-time symmetries, including tensorial charges (i.e. of M-theory type), initiated in hep-th/9907011, is extended to include interaction. For SO(2,2) gravity in a tensorial space-time, with…

We consider a two-dimensional scalar field theory that modifies the standard $\phi^4$ model by introducing a smooth breaking of translational invariance through a hyperbolic generalizing function. This function explicitly breaks the…
We study the noncommutative $\phi^4$ theory with spontaneously broken global O(2) symmetry in 4 dimensions. We demonstrate the renormalizability at one loop. This does not require any choice of ordering of the fields in the interaction…
For each $N$ an infinite number of Conformal Field Theories is presented that has the same fusion rules as SO(N) level 2. These new theories are obtained as extensions of the chiral algebra of $SO(NM^2)$ level 2, and correspond to new…
We compute by Monte Carlo numerical simulations the critical exponents of two-dimensional scalar field theories at the $\lambda\phi^6$ tricritical point. The results are in agreement with the Zamolodchikov conjecture based on conformal…
The scalar field can behave like a fluid with equation of state $p_{\phi}=w\rho_{\phi}$, where $w \in [-1,1]$. In this Letter we derive a class of the scalar field potentials for which $w=$ const. Scalar field with such a potential can…
Guided by idealized but soluble nonrenormalizable models, a nontraditional proposal for the quantization of covariant scalar field theories is advanced, which achieves a term-by-term, divergence-free perturbation analysis of interacting…
We describe a novel duality symmetry of Phi(4)-theory defined on noncommutative Euclidean space and with noncommuting momentum coordinates. This duality acts on the fields by Fourier transformation and scaling. It is an extension, to…
We present a reconstruction technique for models of $f(R)$ gravity from the Chaplygin scalar field in flat de Sitter spacetimes. Exploiting the equivalence between $f(R)$ gravity and scalar-tensor theories, and treating the Chaplygin gas as…
Short distance scaling limits of a class of integrable models on two-dimensional Minkowski space are considered in the algebraic framework of quantum field theory. Making use of the wedge-local quantum fields generating these models, it is…
Schr\"odinger equations with nonlinearities concentrated in some regions of space are good models of various physical situations and have interesting mathematical properties. We show that in the semiclassical limit it is possible to…
