We derive new representations of the Einstein-Hilbert action in which graviton perturbation theory is immensely simplified. To accomplish this, we recast the Einstein-Hilbert action as a theory of purely cubic interactions among gravitons…
On the space of three-dimensional conformal field theories with U(1) symmetry and a chosen coupling to a background gauge field, there is a natural action of the group $SL(2,{\bf Z})$. The generator $S$ of $SL(2,{\bf Z})$ acts by letting…

Closed forms are derived for the effective actions for free, massive spinless fields in anti-de Sitter spacetimes in arbitrary dimensions. The results have simple expressions in terms of elementary functions (for odd dimensions) or multiple…
Instanton calculations in semiclassical quantum mechanics rely on integration along trajectories which solve classical equations of motion. However in systems with higher dimensionality or complexified phase space these are rarely…
There exist lattice actions which give cut--off independent physical predictions even on coarse grained lattices. Rotation symmetry is restored, the spectrum becomes exact and, in addition, the classical equations have scale invariant…
A model of two--dimensional gravity with an action depending only on a linear connection is considered. This model is a topological one, in the sense that the classical action does not contain a metric or zweibein at all. A metric and an…
A universal minimal spinor set of linear differential equations describing anyons and ordinary integer and half-integer spin fields is constructed with the help of deformed Heisenberg algebra with reflection. The construction is generalized…
We recast the action of pure gravity into a form that is invariant under a twofold Lorentz symmetry. To derive this representation, we construct a general parameterization of all theories equivalent to the Einstein-Hilbert action up to a…
The Palatini action is based on vector-valued one forms or frames and SL(2,C) connections on R^4. Using the spacetime split of R^4 as a direct sum of R^3 and R^1, the Gauss law in this paper is treated on a Hilbert space. This is achieved…
We consider solutions of the 2x2 matrix Hamiltonians of the physical systems within the context of the su(2) and su(1,1) Lie algebra. Our technique is relatively simple when compared with the others and treats those Hamiltonians which can…
Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of a free spinning particle in 2+1-dimensions or {\it anyon} are established, following closely the analysis of Hanson and Regge. Two viable (and inequivalent) Lagrangians are derived. It is also…
The physics of the bare Seiberg-Witten action, without supersymmetric partners, is considered in the framework of standard Quantum Field Theory. The topological analysis related to the solutions of the Seiberg-Witten equations is performed…
In a space-time $M$ with a Killing vector field $\xi^a$ which is either everywhere timelike or everywhere spacelike, the collection of all trajectories of $\xi^a$ gives a 3-dimension space $S$. Besides the symmetry-reduced action from that…
A single mode realization of SU(1,1) algebra is proposed. This realization makes it possible to reduce the problem of two nonlinear interacting oscillators to the problem of free moving particle.
Let $(M,\omega)$ be a connected symplectic manifold on which a connected Lie group $G$ acts properly and in a Hamiltonian fashion with moment map $\mu:M \lra \mf g^*$. Our purpose is investigate multiplicity-free actions, giving criteria to…
Poisson plane and sphere --- homogeneous spaces of Poisson groups E(2) and SU(2) (resp.) --- have phase spaces (corresponding symplectic groupoids), in which a free Hamiltonian is naturally defined. We solve the equations of motion and…

We consider SL$(2,\mathbb{Z})$ action on quantum field theories with U(1) subsystem symmetry in five dimensions. This is an analog of the SL$(2,\mathbb{Z})$ action considered in arXiv:hep-th/0307041. We show that the exotic level 1 BF…
