We give a brief overview of the properties of a higher dimensional generalization of matrix model which arises naturally in the context of a background independent approach to quantum gravity, the so called group field theory. We show that…
This is an introduction to the quantum groups, or rather to the simplest quantum groups. The idea is that the unitary group $U_N$ has a free analogue $U_N^+$, whose standard coordinates $u_{ij}\in C(U_N^+)$ are allowed to be free, and the…
A very simple field theory in noncommutative phase space X^{M},P^{M} in d+2 dimensions, with a gauge symmetry based on noncommutative u*(1,1), furnishes the foundation for the field theoretic formulation of Two-Time Physics. This leads to a…
We give a rough description of the 'categories' formed by quantum field theories. A few recent mathematical conjectures derived from quantum field theories, some of which are now proven theorems, will be presented in this language.
Quantization of Free Fields: The non-interacting field belonging to a new {\bf SO(1,3)\/} gauge field theory equivalent to General Relativity is canonically quantized in the Lorentz gauge and the physical Fock space for free gauge particles…
Non-standard topics underlying a partly original approach to gauge field theory are concisely introduced, expressing ideas that were broached in several papers and, eventually, exposed in an organized form in a recently published book. By…
It is shown how the theory of the fields can be constructed in a consistent way in quantized spaces. All constructions are connected with unitary irreducible representations of real forms of six dimensional rotation algebras O(1,5), O(2,4),…
A procedure for constructing topological actions from centrally extended Lie groups is introduced. For a \km\ group, this produces \3al \cs, while for the \vir\ group the result is a new \3al \tft\ whose physical states satisfy the \vir\…
We propose relativistic Luttinger fermions as a new ingredient for the construction of fundamental quantum field theories. We construct the corresponding Clifford algebra and the spin metric for relativistic invariance of the action using…
The theory of the free Maxwell field in two moving frames on the de Sitter spacetime is investigated pointing out that the conserved momentum and energy operators do not commute to each other. This leads us to consider new plane waves…
From the modern viewpoint and by the geometric method, this paper provides a concise foundation for the quantum theory of massless spin-3/2 field in Minkowski spacetime, which includes both the one-particle's quantum mechanics and the…
The light-front quantization of gauge theories in light-cone gauge provides a frame-independent wavefunction representation of relativistic bound states, simple forms for current matrix elements, explicit unitary, and a trivial vacuum. The…
We prove a Tits alternative theorem for groups acting on CAT(0) cubical complexes. Namely, suppose that $G$ is a group for which there is a bound on the orders of its finite subgroups. We prove that if $G$ acts properly on a…
Pure gauge theories for de Sitter, anti de Sitter and orthogonal groups, in four-dimensional Euclidean spacetime, are studied. It is shown that, if the theory is asymptotically free and a dynamical mass is generated, then an effective…
We show that a quantum field theoretic model of anyons cannot be ``free'' in the (restrictive) sense that the basic fields create only one-particle states out of the vacuum.
Classical-particle trajectories are calculated for the static Einstein universe without requiring that the 3-space be closed and curved. Freely-moving test particles are found to return to their starting positions because of strong…
It is shown how to write the first order action for gravity in a gauge theoretic formalism where the spin connection and frame field degrees of freedom are assimilated together into a gauge connection. It is then shown how to couple the…
We formulate Noncommutative Qauntum Field Theory in terms of fields defined as mean value over coherent states of the noncommutative plane. No *-product is needed in this formulation and noncommutativity is carried by a modified Fourier…
The anti self-adjoint operators of imaginary coordinate and momentum, together with the self-adjoint operators of real coordinate, momentum, energy and time are used in construction of the quantum field theory in operator form. This…
An approach to field theory is studied in which fields are comprised of $N$ constituent random neurons. Gaussian theories arise in the infinite-$N$ limit when neurons are independently distributed, via the Central Limit Theorem, while…
