In dilaton gravity theories, we consider a string-like topological defect formed during U(1) gauge symmetry-breaking phase transition in the early Universe, and far from the cosmic string we have vacuum solutions of the generalized Einstein…
Two-dimensional matterless dilaton gravity is a topological theory and can be classically reduced to a (0+1)-dimensional theory with a finite number of degrees of freedom. If quantization is performed, a simple gauge invariant quantum…
On the basis of dynamic quantization method we build in this paper a new mathematically correct quantization scheme of gravity. In the frame of this scheme we develop a canonical formalism in tetrad-connection variables in 4-D theory of…
We find the conditions under which scale-invariant Einstein-Cartan gravity with scalar matter fields leads to an approximate conformal invariance of the flat space particle theory up to energies of the order of the Planck mass. In the…
In this paper we view the sigma-model couplings of appropriate vertex operators describing the interaction of string matter with a certain type of string solitons (0-branes) as the quantum phase space of a point particle. The sigma-model is…
We consider a Higgs mechanism in scale-invariant theories of gravitation. It is shown that in spontaneous symmetry breakdown of scale invariance, gauge symmetries are also broken spontaneously even without the Higgs potential if the…
Nowadays it is widely accepted that the evolution of the universe was driven by some scalar degrees of freedom both on its early stage and at present. The corresponding cosmological models often involve some scalar fields introduced ad hoc.…
Perturbative canonical quantum gravity is considered, when coupled to a renormalizable model for matter fields. It is proposed that the functional integral over the dilaton field should be disentangled from the other integrations over the…
We perform canonical quantization of General Relativity, as an effective quantum field theory below the Planck scale, within the BRST-invariant framework. We show that the promotion of constraints to dynamical equations of motion for…
An elementary prediction of the quantization of the gravitational field is that the Newtonian interaction can entangle pairs of massive objects. Conversely, in models of gravity in which the field is not quantized, the gravitational…
We consider a non-minimally coupled Einstein-Maxwell gravity with no $U(1)$ symmetry property to study stability of an electrostatic star via canonical quantization approach and obtain that the stability is free of gauge field effects. By…
A new formalism for generation of solutions in the consistently truncated low-energy bosonic string theory is developed. This formalism gives a correspondence of the projection type between the theories toroidally compactified from the…
We investigate a recently identified class of six-dimensional supergravities without tensor multiplets whose primitive BPS strings are described by a rational superconformal field theory. Rationality imposes severe constraints on the…
As of today there exist consistent, gauge-invariant string field theories describing all string theories: bosonic open and closed strings, open superstrings, heterotic strings and type II strings. The construction of these theories require…
We find solutions of Einstein's field equation for topologically stable strings associated with the breaking of a U(1) symmetry. Strings form in many GUTs and are expected whenever the homotopy group $\Pi_1(M_0)$ is non-trivial. The…
We study the behavior of the scattering amplitudes of the bosonic string involving a soft massless state (graviton, dilaton and Kalb-Ramond antisymmetric tensor) and closed string tachyons or other closed string massless states. For a soft…
We present a class of simple scalar-tensor models of gravity with one scalar field (dilaton $\Phi$) and only one unknown function (cosmological potential $U(\Phi)$). These models might be considered as a stringy inspired ones with broken…
We examine the metric of an isolated self-gravitating abelian-Higgs vortex in dilatonic gravity for arbitrary coupling of the vortex fields to the dilaton. We look for solutions in both massless and massive dilaton gravity. We compare our…
The perturbations of string-theoretic black holes are analyzed by generalizing the method of Chandrasekhar. Attention is focussed on the case of the recently considered charged string-theoretic black hole solutions as a representative…
We consider the stochastic quantization equation associated with the weighted exponential quantum field model (or the H{\o}egh-Krohn model) on the two dimensional torus. Unlike in the case of the usual (unweighted) exponential model, the…
