The existence of a minimal length is predicted by theories of quantum gravity and it is generally accepted that this minimal length should be of the order of the Planck length and hence can be observed in high energy phenomenon. We study…
This paper concerns the existence of positive ground state solutions for generalized quasilinear Schr\"odinger equations in $\mathbb{R}^N$ with critical growth which arise from plasma physics, as well as high-power ultrashort laser in…
The free action for massless Ramond-Ramond fields is derived from closed superstring field theory using the techniques of Siegel and Zwiebach. For the uncompactified Type IIB superstring, this gives a manifestly Lorentz-covariant action for…
The properties of (N X N)-matrix-valued-field theories, in the limit N goes to infinity, are harder to obtain than those for isovector-valued field theories. This is because we know less about the sum of planar diagrams than the sum of…
Novel techniques are presented, which identify the chiral power-counting regime (PCR), and realize the existence of an intrinsic energy scale embedded in lattice QCD results that extend outside the PCR. The nucleon mass is considered as a…
In this work, we present two brane-world-type solutions in a two-dimensional (2D) dilaton gravity model with singular space-time backgrounds. By employing a first-order superpotential formalism, we first construct the 2D analogues of the…
We investigate matrix models in three dimensions where the global $\text{SU}(N)$ symmetry acts via the adjoint map. Analyzing their ground state which is homogeneous in space and can carry either a unique or multiple fixed charges, we show…

Scalar fields coupled to gravity via $\xi R {\Phi}^2$ in arbitrary Friedmann-Robertson-Walker backgrounds can be represented by an effective flat space field theory. We derive an expression for the scalar energy density where the effective…

The present paper is devoted to existence results for time-periodic solutions of generalized nonlinear wave equations in a closed Riemannian manifold M. Our main focus lies on the doubly degenerate setting where the associated generalized…
We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of nonlinear Schr\"odinger ground states on $d$-dimensional periodic metric grids in the limit for the length of the edges going to zero. We prove that suitable piecewise-affine extensions of such…
Taking $\mathbf{O}(D,D)$ covariant field variables as its truly fundamental constituents, Double Field Theory can accommodate not only conventional supergravity but also non-Riemannian gravities that may be classified by two non-negative…
Using the background field method, we, in the large $N_f$ approximation, calculate the beta function of scalar quantum electrodynamics at the first nontrivial order in $1/N_f$ by two different ways. In the first way, we get the result by…
The linearized massive gravity in three dimensions, over any maximally symmetric background, is known to be presented in a self-dual form as a first order equation which encodes not only the massive Klein-Gordon type field equation but also…
Domain wall, wormhole, particlelike, and cosmic string general relativistic solutions supported by two interacting phantom or ordinary scalar fields with 4th-, 6th-, and 8th-order potentials are studied. Numerical calculations indicate that…
We consider positive and spatially decaying solutions to the Gross-Pitaevskii equation with a harmonic potential. For the energy-critical case, there exists a ground state if and only if the frequency belongs to (1,3) in three dimensions…
We review and extend several recent results on the existence of the ground state for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) equation on a metric graph. By ground state we mean a minimizer of the NLS energy functional constrained to the manifold…
We consider the generic nonanticommutative model of chiral-antichiral superfields on ${\cal N}={1\over 2}$ superspace. The model is formulated in terms of an arbitrary K\"ahlerian potential, chiral and antichiral superpotentials and can…
