Recently, a two-matrix-model with a new type of interaction [1] has been introduced and analyzed using bi-orthogonal polynomial techniques. Here we present the complete 1/N^2 expansion for the formal version of this model, following the…
We consider some generalizations of Freedman-Townsend models of self-interacting antisymmetric tensors, involving couplings to further form fields introduced by Henneaux and Knaepen. We show how these fields can provide masses to the…
We show that the chiral Gross-Neveu model in $2+ \epsilon$ dimensions has for a small number $N$ of fermions two phase transitions corresponding to pair formation and pair condensation. In the first transition, fermions and antifermions…
Two-dimensional N=1,2 supersymmetric chiral models and their dual extensions are introduced and canonically quantized. Working within a superspace formalism, the non-manifest invariance under 2D-superPoincare' transformations is proven. The…
The Arkani-Hamed-Dimopoulos-Dvali and the Randall-Sundrum models with extra spacelike dimensions, recently proposed as a solution to the hierarchy problem, are reviewed. We discuss their basic properties and phenomenological effects of…
The discovery of topological states of matter has profoundly augmented our understanding of phase transitions in physical systems. Instead of local order parameters, topological phases are described by global topological invariants and are…
Recently various phenomenological implications of the existence of extra space-time dimensions have been investigated. In this letter, we construct a model with realistic fermion mass hierarchy with (large) extra dimensions beyond the usual…
A criterion given by Castejon-Amenedo and MacCallum (1990) for the existence of (locally) hypersurface-orthogonal generators of an orthogonally-transitive two-parameter Abelian group of motions (a $G_2I$) in spacetime is re-expressed as a…
We analyze (2+1)-dimensional gravity with a Chern--Simons term and a negative cosmological constant, primarily at the weak field level. The full theory is expressible as the sum of two higher derivative SL(2,R) "vector" Chern-Simons terms,…
The O(n) non-linear $\sigma$-model is simulated on 2-dimensional regular and random lattices. We use two different levels of randomness in the construction of the random lattices and give a detailed explanation of the geometry of such…
Partially massless theory in three dimensions is revisited and its relationship with the self-dual massive gravity is considered. The only mode of the partially massless theory is shown explicitly through an action for a scalar field on…
Relations between the various formulations of nonlinear p-form electrodynamics with conformal-invariant weak-field and strong-field limits are clarified, with a focus on duality invariant (2n-1)-form electrodynamics and chiral 2n-form…
The chiral Gross-Neveu model is one of the most popular toy models for QCD. In the past, it has been studied in detail in the large-N limit. In this paper we study its small-N behavior at finite temperature in 2+1 dimensions. We show that…
A topological model in three dimensions is proposed. It combines the Chern-Simons action with a BFK-model which was investigated recently by the authors of hep-th/9906146. The finiteness of the model to all orders of perturbation theory is…
We study the relationship between three non-Abelian topologically massive gauge theories, viz. the naive non-Abelian generalization of the Abelian model, Freedman-Townsend model and the dynamical 2-form theory, in the canonical framework.…
We propose a model, in the framework of 5D with warped geometry, in which small neutrino Majorana masses are generated by tree level coupling of lepton doublets to a SU(2)_{L}-triplet scalar field, which is coupled to a bulk SM-singlet. The…
Spacetimes generated by a lightlike particle source for topologically massive gravity and its limits - Einstein gravity and the pure gravitational Chern-Simons model - are obtained both by solving the field equations and by infinite boosts…
We put forward an idea that physical phenomena have to be treated in 5-dimensional space where the fifth coordinate is the interval S. Thus, we considered the (1+4) extended space G(T;X,Y,Z,S). In addition to Lorentz transformations (T;X),…
In unified $\mathcal{N}=1$ supergravity scenario the gaugino masses can be non-universal. The patterns of these non-universalities are dictated by the vacuum expectation values of non-singlet chiral super-fields in visible sector. Here, we…
In this paper we consider generation of naturally small neutrino masses from a dimension-7 operator. Such a term can arise in presence of a scalar quadruplet and a pair of vector-like fermion triplets and enables one to obtain small…
