A new synthesis of the principles of relativity and quantum mechanics is developed by replacing the Poincar\'e group for the de Sitter one. The new relativistic quantum mechanics is an indefinite mass theory which is reduced to the standard…
The problem of the classical non-relativistic electromagnetically kicked oscillator can be cast into the form of an iterative map on phase space. The original work of Zaslovskii {\it et al} showed that the resulting evolution contains a…
We find the Lie point symmetries for non-relativistic two-dimensional charged particle motion. These symmetries comprise a quasi-invariance transformation, a time-dependent rotation, a time-dependent spatial translation and a dilation. The…
The gravitational charge algebra of generic asymptotically locally (A)dS spacetimes is derived in $n$ dimensions. The analysis is performed in the Starobinsky/Fefferman-Graham gauge, without assuming any further boundary condition than the…
Point particle may interact to traceless symmetric tensors of arbitrary rank. Free gauge theories of traceless symmetric tensors are constructed, that provides a possibility for a new type of interactions, when particles exchange by those…
We investigate symmetry properties of vector-valued diffusion and Schr\"odinger equations. For a separable Hilbert space $H$ we characterize the subspaces of $L^2(\Omega, H)$ that are local (i.e., defined pointwise) and discuss the issue of…
We consider two-dimensional N=(2,2) supersymmetric gauge theory on discretized Riemann surfaces. We find that the discretized theory can be efficiently described by using graph theory, where the bosonic and fermionic fields are regarded as…
The fundamental role of on-shell diagrams in quantum field theory has been recently recognized. On-shell diagrams, or equivalently bipartite graphs, provide a natural bridge connecting gauge theory to powerful mathematical structures such…
This talk discusses the relation between spacetime-dependent scalars, such as couplings or fields, and the violation of Lorentz symmetry. A specific cosmological supergravity model demonstrates how scalar fields can acquire time-dependent…
An intriguing feature of the Standard Model is that the representations of the unbroken gauge symmetries are vector-like whereas those of the spontaneously broken gauge symmetries are chiral. Here we provide a toy model which shows that a…
Standard lore uses local anomalies to check the kinematic consistency of gauge theories coupled to chiral fermions, e.g. Standard Models (SM). Based on a systematic cobordism classification, we examine constraints from invertible quantum…
Supersymmetry does not dictate the way we should quantize the fields in the supermultiplets, and so we have the freedom to quantize the Standard Model (SM) particles and their superpartners differently. We propose a generalized quantization…
In 1948, Schwinger developed a local Lorentz covariant formulation of relativistic quantum electrodynamics in space-time which is fundamentally inconsistent with any delocalized interpretation of quantum mechanics. An interpretation…
A novel algorithm is provided to couple a Galilean invariant model with curved spatial background by taking nonrelativistic limit of a unique minimally coupled relativistic theory, which ensures Galilean symmetry in the flat limit and…
In the past decade we have witnessed remarkable developments in the gauge-gravity duality, which suggested a new approach to superstring theory and quantum space-time. In this context it is important to study supersymmetric large-N gauge…
Starting from a generic generally covariant classical theory we introduce the logarithmic correction to the quantum wave equation. We demonstrate the emergence of the evolution time from the group of automorphisms of the von Neumann algebra…
Discrete translational symmetry plays a fundamental role in condensed matter physics and lattice gauge theories, enabling the analysis of systems that would otherwise be intractable. Despite this, many open problems remain. Quantum…
The study of toy models in loop quantum gravity (LQG), defined as truncations of the full theory, is relevant to both the development of the LQG phenomenology, in cosmology and astrophysics, and the progress towards the resolution of the…
Field theories are usually quantized by performing a path integral over configurations of classical fields. This is the case both in perturbation theory and in Wilson's nonperturbative lattice field theory. D-theory is an alternative…
Based on local gauge invariance, four different kinds of fundamental interactions in Nature are unified in a theory which has $SU(3)_c \otimes SU(2)_L \otimes U(1) \otimes_s Gravitational Gauge Group$ gauge symmetry. In this approach,…
