We investigate a coupled system of a Dirac particle and a pseudoscalar field in the form of a soliton in (1+1) dimensions and find some of its exact solutions numerically. We solve the coupled set of equations self-consistently and…
We investigate the conformal invariance of massless Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau theory coupled to riemannian space-times. We show that, as usual, in the minimal coupling procedure only the spin 1 sector of the theory -which corresponds to the…

We consider scalar lattice differential equations posed on square lattices in two space dimensions. Under certain natural conditions we show that wave-like solutions exist when obstacles (characterized by "holes") are present in the…
Propagation of unsteady waves under the effect of a step point load on a square lattice of spring-connected masses is investigated. The problem is solved by two methods. Asymptotic solutions at large time intervals, which describe the…
Fermionic totally symmetric arbitrary spin massless fields in AdS space of dimension greater than or equal to four are studied. Using Poincar\'e parametrization of AdS space, CFT adapted gauge invariant formulation for such fields is…
We study the 2-dimensional Ising model at critical temperature on a simply connected subset $\Omega_{\delta}$ of the square grid $\delta\mathbb{Z}^{2}$. The scaling limit of the critical Ising model is conjectured to be described by…
In this article we explore the R-symmetry of the (2,2) 2d Wess-Zumino model. We study whether or not this symmetry is approximately realized in the Q-exact lattice version of this theory. Our study is nonperturbative: it relies on Monte…
The drift method, introduced by the second author, provides a new formulation of the Einstein constraint equations, either in vacuum or with matter fields. The natural of the geometry underlying this method compensates for its slightly…
Simplicity of fundamental physical laws manifests itself in fundamental symmetries. While systems with an infinity of strongly interacting degrees of freedom (in particle physics and critical phenomena) are hard to describe, they often…
Alternative to the embedding formalism, we provide a group theoretic approach to the conformal primary basis for the massless field with arbitrary helicity. To this end, we first point out that $sl(2,\mathds{C})$ isometry gets enhanced to…
Qualitative characteristics and the rigorous definition of a concept of the double symmetry is given. We use some double symmetry for constructing a theory of fields not investigated before which transform as the proper Lorentz group…
We derive, in 3+1 spacetime dimensions, two alternative systems of quasi-linear wave equations, based on Friedrich's conformal field equations. We analyse their equivalence to Einstein's vacuum field equations when appropriate constraint…
