We consider general five-dimensional gauge theories compactified on on an orbifold S1/Z2 with all fields propagating in the bulk. We propose a generalized set of boundary conditions and derive the general features of the low…
Unimodularity is localized to a complete stationary type, and its properties are analysed. Some variants of unimodularity for definable and type-definable sets are introduced, and the relationship between these different notions is studied.…
Cosmology with a three-form field interacting with cold dark matter is considered. In particular, the mass of the dark matter particles is assumed to depend upon the amplitude of the three-form field invariant. In comparison to coupled…
The effects of boundary conditions of the fields for the compactified space directions on the supersymmetric theories are discussed. The boundary conditions can be taken to be periodic up to the degrees of freedom of localized $U(1)_{R}$…
It is shown in first order perturbation theory that anharmonic oscillators in non-commutative space behave smoothly in the commutative limit just as harmonic oscillators do. The non-commutativity provides a method for converting a problem…
We reinterpret N=(2,1) strings as describing the continuum limit of matrix theory with all spatial dimensions compactified. Thus they may characterize the full set of degrees of freedom needed to formulate the theory.
The fields nonlinear modes quantization scheme is discussed. New form of the perturbation theory achieved by unitary mapping the quantum dynamics in the space $W_G$ of (action, angle)-type collective variables. It is shown why the…
By combining swampland conjectures with observational data, it was recently suggested that the cosmological hierarchy problem (i.e. the smallness of the dark energy in Planck units) could be understood as an asymptotic limit in field space,…
Compactifications of type II theories on Calabi-Yau threefolds including electric and magnetic background fluxes are discussed. We derive the bosonic part of the four-dimensional low energy effective action and show that it is a…
A paper is devoted to study of one class of space mappings which are more general than mappings with bounded distortion. It is showed that a locally uniformly limit of a sequence of mappings $f:D\rightarrow {\Bbb R}^n$ of domain…
We examine the large volume compactification of Type IIB string theory or its F theory limit and the associated supersymmetry breakdown and soft terms. It is crucial to incorporate the loop-induced moduli mixing, originating from radiative…
We investigate the cosmological consequences of having quantum fields living in a space with compactified dimensions. We will show that the equation of state is not modified by topological effects and so the dynamics of the universe remains…
Recently it has been claimed that ordinary perturbation theory (OPT) gives incorrect weak coupling expansions for lattice O(N) non-linear sigma models in the infinite volume limit, and in particular that the two-dimensional non-abelian…
Carrying out perturbations around a lattice topological field theory in two dimensions, we show that it is on a first order phase transition fixed point with multiplicity ${n(n-1)/2}$, where $n$ is the number of its independent physical…
In this paper we study duality properties of the M(atrix) theory compactified on a circle. We establish the equivalence of this theory to the strong coupling limit of type IIB string theory compactified on a circle. In the M(atrix) theory…
We consider how the principles of causality and equivalence restrict the background in which matter field theories are defined; those constraints develop in restrictions for these matter field theories: the simplest matter field theory…
Relativistic length contraction is revisited and a simple but new thought experiment is proposed in which an apparent asymmetric situation is developed between two different inertial frames regarding detection of light that comes from a…
There has been some work in the literature on limit theorems for the trace of commutators for compact Lie groups. We revisit this from the perspective of combinatorial representation theory.
This article aims to explain essential elements of perturbation theory and their conceptual underpinnings. It is not meant as a summary of popular perturbation methods, though some illustrative examples are given to underline the main…
The concordance model of cosmology predicts a universe which finishes in a finite amount of conformal time at a future conformal boundary. We show that for particular cases we study, the background variables and perturbations may be…
