We quantize the Friedberg-Lee-Pang-Ren (FLPR) model within the framework of Batalin-Fradkin-Vilkovisky (BFV) formalism. We construct the nilpotent Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) charges using constraints and the fermionic gauge-fixing…
We generalize the analysis of the asymptotic higher spin symmetries developed in the first three parts of this series by considering the minimal coupling of Einstein Gravity and Yang-Mills theory. We show that there exist symmetry…
We construct a non-perturbative action of the higher spin symmetry algebra on the asymptotic Yang-Mills phase space. We introduce a symmetry algebroid which admits a realization on the asymptotic phase space generated by a Noether charge…
We convincingly argue that the true dynamical and gauge structure of the QCD ground state is much more complicated than its Lagrangian exact gauge symmetry supposes to be. The dynamical source of these complications has been identified with…
In this paper we investigate one Wakimoto-type construction of affine Kac-Moody algebras. We obtain a version of the regular representation, on which the affine algebra acts from the left and from the right with the sum of levels equal to…
Motivated by quantum gravity on spacetimes with multi-scale geometry, we analyze quantum field theories with a self-adjoint fractional power $(\Box^2)^{\gamma/2}$ of the d'Alem\-bert\-ian in the kinetic term, for any real $\gamma>0$.…
We show that the wavefunction of the universe in theories of conformally coupled scalars in power-law Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) cosmologies satisfies a graphical coaction, by means of which we can understand its complete analytic…
We study the coaction of cosmological wavefunction coefficients of conformally coupled scalars in FRW background of a two-site example, which turns out to have an elegant diagrammatic interpretation. We show how the coaction acts on the…
In Einstein gravity, matter with an arbitrarily small density can be a black hole. Pressure in the star diverges if size of the star is smaller than 9/8 of the Schwarzschild radius, implying the gravitational collapse into a black hole. By…
Quantum gravity may modify the fundamental symmetries that govern identical particles. In particular, noncommutative spacetime frameworks predict deformations of Bose and Fermi statistics. Here we develop a relativistic quantum field theory…
We study wavepackets of exotic excitations after two-dimensional fermions are scattered by the boundary condition constructed by Maldacena and Ludwig, which turns elementary excitations into exotic fractionally-charged objects. They are of…
Landau analysis in momentum twistor space can be formulated as the study of varieties of lines in three-dimensional projective space, together with their projections and discriminants. Within this framework, we define enumerative invariants…
We compute the one-loop contribution to the semiclassical partition function of near-extremal, asymptotically AdS black holes in five-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. In the absence of an exact analytic rotating solution at finite…
We investigate the renormalization group flow and beta functions of Yang-Mills theory and adjoint QCD in a strong, stable, self-dual background field $F$. In deep UV, theory runs according to the standard beta function, $\beta_0$. Treating…
We investigate the frequency-dependent (dynamical) tidal response of regular black holes for the Bardeen, Hayward, and Fan-Wang geometries. Our results are obtained by solving the coupled perturbation equations with appropriate boundary…
A charged massive spin-$\tfrac32$ field in a constant electromagnetic background admits two familiar realizations. In supergravity, where it is identified with a gravitino, its mass and charge are tied in Planck units. In the…
We consider a Universe with a three-torus topology which before inflation is devoid of any matter or radiation. Its pre-inflationary evolution is driven solely by Casimir energies of the existing fields, with a radiation-like equation of…
Current literature lacks consensus on how to theoretically describe spin polarization and its transport in matter. The underlying reason is the presence of the Belinfante-Rosenfeld (BR) ambiguity in the form of the energy-momentum and spin…
We study duality-invariant higher-derivative corrections to the charged black hole geometry in two-dimensional heterotic string theory. We illustrate how the conventional perturbative approach to determine the corrected geometry breaks…
String Newton-Cartan holography is a new example of gauge/gravity duality relating non-relativistic string theory and gauge theories. We review how to construct a family of string and $p$-brane Newton-Cartan holographic dualities by…
