It was argued in a number of papers that the gravitational potential calculated by using the modified QFT that follows from the Planck-length deformed uncertainty relation implies the existence of black-hole remnants of the order of the…
Dark photon dark matter may be produced by the cosmic strings in association with the dark U(1) gauge symmetry breaking. We perform three-dimensional lattice simulations of the Abelian-Higgs model and follow the evolution of cosmic strings.…
Making use of the octonion operator, the electromagnetic field generates an adjoint field theoretically. The source of adjoint field includes the adjoint charge and the adjoint current. The adjoint charge has an impact on the gravitational…
In this contribution, the peculiarities of the behaviour of strange quark matter in respect to ordinary ions in silicon are investigated, and a tentative to identify possible observable effects of degradation is made.
A procedure is considered which upgrades the Lagrangian description of quantum relativistic particles to the Lagrangian of a proper field theory in the case that the Klein-Gordon wave equation is classically interpreted in terms of a…
We describe a new method to parameterise dark energy theories including massive gravity, elastic dark energy and tensor-metric theories. We first examine a framework to describe any second order Lagrangian which depends on the variation of…
Several works in the last few years devoted to measure fundamental probes of contemporary cosmology have suggested the existence of a delocalized dominant component (the "dark energy"), in addition to the several-decade-old evidence for…
Motivated by the swampland conjectures, we study cosmological signatures of a quintessence potential which induces time variation in the low energy effective field theory. After deriving the evolution of the quintessence field, we…
In this pedestrian approach I give my personal point of view on the various problems posed by dark matter in the universe. After a brief historical overview I discuss the various solutions stemming from high energy particle physics, and the…
We review the field of collisionless numerical simulations for the large-scale structure of the Universe. We start by providing the main set of equations solved by these simulations and their connection with General Relativity. We then…
We discuss the use of the variational principle within quaternionic quantum mechanics. This is non-trivial because of the non commutative nature of quaternions. We derive the Dirac Lagrangian density corresponding to the two-component Dirac…
It is suggested that the apparently disparate cosmological phenomena attributed to so-called 'dark matter' and 'dark energy' arise from the same fundamental physical process: the emergence, from the quantum level, of spacetime itself. This…
Cosmological scaling solutions are particularly important in solving the coincidence problem of dark energy. We derive the equations of sub-Hubble linear matter perturbations for a general scalar-field Lagrangian--including quintessence,…
Effective theories provide a powerful tool for testing the Standard Model and for searching for the effects of new physics in a model-independent manner. In general one assumes that the effects of new physics characterized by a high-energy…
It is proposed that an ultra-light fermionic species, dubbed cosmic magnino has condensed into a ferromagnetic state in the Universe. The extended structure of domain walls associated with this ferromagnetism accounts for the observed Dark…
The paper aims to consider the electromagnetic adjoint-field in the complex octonion space as the dark matter field, describing some properties of dark matter, especially the origin, particle category, existence region, and force and so…
We show that a recent constraint on the cosmic birefringence effect due to dark energy can be related to the constraints on the coupling of axion dark matter to photon, by relying on a simple model of two-axion alignment mechanism with…
We propose a new out-of-equilibrium production mechanism of light dark matter: resonance scanning. If the dark matter mass evolved in the early Universe, resonant production may have occurred for a wide range of light dark matter masses…
I discuss consequences of electroweak symmetry breaking by strong dynamics, assuming the existence of a light composite scalar appearing as a pseudo-Goldstone boson of some global symmetry of the new strongly interacting sector. In such a…
While real Hamiltonian mechanics and Hermitian quantum mechanics can both be cast in the framework of complex canonical equations, their complex generalisations have hitherto been remained tangential. In this paper quaternionic and…
