We investigate the two flavor chiral Gross-Neveu model in the Schroedinger functional on the lattice. The procedure necessary to recover chiral symmetry in the continuum limit of this model with Wilson fermions is discussed. We introduce…
We consider quantum aspects of a class of generalized Gross-Neveu models, which in special cases reduce to sigma models. We show that, in the case of gauged models, an admissible gauge is $A_\mu=0$, which is a direct analogue of the…
We study some symmetry and integrability properties of four-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell gravity with nonvanishing cosmological constant in the presence of Killing vectors. First of all, we consider stationary spacetimes, which lead, after…
An infinite number of topological conformal algebras with varying central charges are explicitly shown to be present in $2d$ gravity (treated both in the conformal gauge and in the light-cone gauge) coupled to minimal matter. The central…
In this lecture I address the issue of possible large distance modification of gravity and its observational consequences. Although, for the illustrative purposes we focus on a particular simple generally-covariant example, our conclusions…
Some approaches to $2d$ gravity developed for the last years are reviewed. They are physical (Liouville) gravity, topological theories and matrix models. A special attention is paid to matrix models and their interrelations with different…
We use matrix model results to investigate the Sine-Gordon model coupled to two dimensional gravity. For relevant (in the RG sense) potentials, we show that the $c=1$ string, which appears in the ultraviolet limit of this model, flows to a…
The coupling of gravity to a scalar field raises a number of interesting questions of principle since the usual minimal coupling obtained by replacing ordinary derivatives with covariant derivatives is not available -- they are the same…
In this work we explore the viability of nonminimally coupled matter- curvature gravity theories, namely the conditions required for the absence of tachyon instabilities and ghost degrees of freedom. We contrast our finds with recent claims…
We find the novel class of the supersymmetric deformation of the $\mathbb{CP}^{1}$ $\sigma$-model and its equivalence with the generalised chiral Gross-Neveu. This construction allows the use of field-theoretic techniques and particularly…
We obtain nonperturbative results in the framework of continuous Liouville theory. In particular, we express the specific heat ${\cal Z}$ of pure gravity in terms of an expansion of integrals on moduli spaces of punctured Riemann spheres.…
In the background of a Kerr-Newman black hole, the motion of a scalar particle is integrable by virtue of an extra conserved charge known as Carter charge. When the particle is endowed with spin, it is known that another conserved charge,…
We look for a classical double copy structure between gravity and electrodynamics by connecting the descriptions of the scattering of two point masses, and of two point charges, in terms of perturbative (post-Minkowskian or post-Lorentzian)…
The symmetries of generic 2D dilaton models of gravity with (and without) matter are studied in some detail. It is shown that $\delta_2$, one of the symmetries of the matterless models, can be generalized to the case where matter fields of…
The zigzag model is a relativistic $N$-body system arising in the high energy limit of the worldsheet scattering in adjoint two-dimensional QCD. We prove classical Liouville integrability of this model by providing an explicit construction…
We investigate the Liouvillian integrability of Hamiltonian systems describing a universe filled with a scalar field (possibly complex). The tool used is the differential Galois group approach, as introduced by Morales-Ruiz and Ramis. The…
We consider a generalization of nonrelativistic Schr\"odinger-Higgs Lagrangian by introducing a nonstandard kinetic term. We show that this model is Galilean invariant, we construct the conserved charges associated to the symmetries and…
It is found that the induced gravity with conformal couplings requires the conformal invariance in both classical and quantum levels for consistency. This is also true for the induced gravity with an extended conformal coupling interacting…
In this short note we address the problem of integrability of a double pendulum in the constant gravity field. We show its non-integrability using the combination of algebraic and numerical approaches, namely we compute the non-commuting…
In this work we apply the Weiss, Tabor and Carnevale integrability criterion (Painlev\'e analysis) to the classical version of the two dimensional Bukhvostov-Lipatov model. We are led to the conclusion that the model is not integrable…
