Lorentz covariance is the fundamental principle of every relativistic field theory which insures consistent physical descriptions. Even if the space-time is noncommutative, field theories on it should keep Lorentz covariance. In this paper,…

We show that Lorentz symmetry is generally absent for noncommutative (abelian) gauge theories and obtain a compact formula for the divergence of the Noether currents that allows a throughout study of this instance of symmetry violation. We…

We develop a BRST symmetric gaugeon formalism for the Abelian rank-2 antisymmetric tensor field in the Lorentz breaking framework. The Lorentz breaking is achieved here by considering a proper subgroup of Lorentz group together with…

We propose the mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking of a bulk vector field as a way to generate the selection of bulk dimensions invisible to the standard model confined to the brane. By assigning a non-vanishing vacuum value to the…

A model of spontaneous Lorentz violation in four dimension is given, which seems to provide a Lorentz invariant effective theory. An SU(2) Yang-Mills gauge field and an auxiliary U(1) vector field generate gravity and other interactions…

Binary pulsars are excellent laboratories to test the building blocks of Einstein's theory of General Relativity. One of these is Lorentz symmetry which states that physical phenomena appear the same for all inertially moving observers. We…

The properties of the effective field theory relevant for the low energy structure generated by the Goldstone bosons of a spontaneously broken symmetry are reexamined. It is shown that anomaly free, Lorentz invariant theories are…

The Standard Model Extension (SME) provides the most general observer-independent field theoretical framework for investigations of Lorentz violation. The SME lagrangian by definition contains all Lorentz-violating interaction terms that…

The dual Meissner effect is described and numerically observed in a gauge-invariant way in lattice Monte-Carlo simulations of pure SU(2) QCD. A gauge-invariant Abelian-like field strength is defined in terms of a unit-vector in color space…

A brief summary of some of the main consequences of spontaneous Lorentz violation in gravity is presented, including evasion of a no-go theorem, concomitant spontaneous diffeomorphism breaking, the appearance of massless Nambu-Goldstone…

We re-examine three-dimensional gauge theory with a Chern-Simons term in which the Lorentz invariance is spontaneously broken by dynamical generation of a magnetic field. A non-vanishing magnetic field leads, through the Nambu-Goldstone…

We study the effect of spontaneous Lorentz violation on neutrinos. We consider two kinds of effects: static effects, where the neutrino acquires a Lorentz-violating dispersion relation, and dynamic effects, which arise from the interactions…

The possibility of non-trivial representations of the gauge group on wavefunctionals of a gauge invariant quantum field theory leads to a generation of mass for intermediate vector and tensor bosons. The mass parameters "m" show up as…

Spontanous symmetry breaking usually gives spin 0 Goldstone bosons for the case of internal symmetries and spin 1/2 fermions for the supersymmetry. The spontaneous breaking of higher dimensional Lorentz symmetry can give vector Goldstone…

We discuss $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Abelian gauge field theories, as well as their extension to the Englert-Brout-Higgs mechanism for generating a mass for a vector boson. Gauge invariance is not straightforward, and we discuss the…

Motivated by ideas from quantum gravity, Lorentz invariance has undergone many stringent tests over the past decade and passed every one. Since there is no conclusive reason from quantum gravity that the symmetry \textit{must} be violated…

While Lorentz invariance, the fundamental symmetry of Einstein's theory of General Relativity, has been tested to a great level of detail, Grand Unified Theories that combine gravity with the other three fundamental forces may result in a…

Generic violations of Lorentz symmetry can be described by an effective field theory framework that contains both general relativity and the standard model of particle physics called the Standard-Model Extension (SME). We obtain new…

In the context of conventional quantum field theory, we present a general Lorentz-violating extension of the minimal SU(3) x SU(2) x U(1) standard model including CPT-even and CPT-odd terms. It can be viewed as the low-energy limit of a…

It is argued that the massive non-Abelian gauge field theory without involving Higgs bosons may be well established on the basis of gauge-invariance principle because the dynamics of the field is gauge-invariant in the physical space…
