Recently, we have demonstrated that there exists a possible relationship between q-deformed algebras in two different contexts of Statistical Mechanics, namely, the Tsallis' framework and the Kaniadakis' scenario, with a local form of…

This work presents the variational principles and the intrinsic versions of several equations in field theories, in particular, for the Classical Euler-Lagrange field equations, the implicit Euler-Lagrange field equations and the…

Theories with an infinite number of derivatives are described by non-local Lagrangians for which the standard Hamiltonian formalism cannot be applied. Hamiltonians of special types of non-local theories can be constructed by means of the…

Motivated by theoretical studies of gravitational clustering in the Universe, we compute propagators (response functions) in the adhesion model. This model, which is able to reproduce the skeleton of the cosmic web and includes nonlinear…

We observe that a wide class of higher-derivative systems admits a bounded integral of motion that ensures the classical stability of dynamics, while the canonical energy is unbounded. We use the concept of a Lagrange anchor to demonstrate…

During inflation, higher derivative terms in the gravitational action may play a significant role. Building on new stable formulations of four-derivative scalar-tensor theories, we study the impact of these corrections in the case where the…

The Ostrogradsky instability of higher derivative Lagrangians is derived from first principles using Control theory and Lyapunov Stability Analysis. This result is then used to argue that Born-Infeld Lagrangians are viable modifications of…

We present our recent contributions to the theory of Lagrangian descriptors for discriminating ordered and deterministic chaotic trajectories. The class of Lagrangian Descriptors we are dealing with is based on the Euclidean length of the…

Dynamical systems invariant under the action of the l-conformal Newton-Hooke algebras are constructed by the method of nonlinear realizations. The relevant first order Lagrangians together with the corresponding Hamiltonians are found. The…

In this work, the conformable Bateman Lagrangian for the damped harmonic oscillator system is proposed using the conformable derivative concept. In other words, the integer derivatives are replaced by conformable derivatives of order…

Functional methods can be applied to the quantum effective action to efficiently determine counterterms and matching conditions for effective field theories. We extend the toolbox to two-loop order and beyond and show how to evaluate the…

The classical parabolic induction functor is a fundamental tool on the representation theoretic side of the Langlands program. In this article, we study its derived version. It was shown by the second author that the derived category of…

In this paper we find fractional Riemann-Liouville derivatives for the Takagi-Landsberg functions. Moreover, we introduce their generalizations called weighted Takagi-Landsberg functions which have arbitrary bounded coefficients in the…

The purpose of this article is to initiate a study of a class of Lorentz invariant, yet tractable, Lagrangian Field Theories which may be viewed as an extension of the Klein-Gordon Lagrangian to many scalar fields in a novel manner. These…

We use a description based on differential forms to systematically explore the space of scalar-tensor theories of gravity. Within this formalism, we propose a basis for the scalar sector at the lowest order in derivatives of the field and…

This work is an application of the second order gauge theory for the Lorentz group, where a description of the gravitational interaction is obtained which includes derivatives of the curvature. We analyze the form of the second field…

We construct a modification of the standard model which stabilizes the Higgs mass against quadratically divergent radiative corrections, using ideas originally discussed by Lee and Wick in the context of a finite theory of quantum…

Using a hybrid approach, based on the recursion relations for shape invariant potentials developed by Das and Huang and a time-dependent tranformation of variables, we derive the propagator for a radial oscillator. Although this is not a…

We extend, to the quantum domain, the results obtained in [Nucl. Phys. B 885 (2014) 150] and [Phys. Lett. B 738 (2014) 405] concerning the Niederer's transformation for the Pais-Uhlenbeck oscillator. Namely, the quantum counterpart (an…

Contrary to common belief, it is shown that theories whose field equations are higher than second order in derivatives need not be stricken with ghosts. In particular, the prototypical fourth-order derivative Pais-Uhlenbeck oscillator model…
