Fundamental assumptions which form the basis of models for large-scale structure in the Universe are sketched in light of a Lagrangian description of inhomogeneities. This description is introduced for Newtonian self-gravitating flows. On…

We consider extra dimensional gauge theories on an interval. We first review the derivation of the consistent boundary conditions (BC's) from the action principle. These BC's include choices that give rise to breaking of the gauge…

A new method of deriving the Higgs Lagrangian from vector-like gauge theories is explored. After performing a supersymmetric extension of gauge theories we identify the auxiliary field associated with the "meson" superfield, in the low…

A geometric perspective of the Higgs Mechanism is presented. Using Thom's Catastrophe Theory, we study the emergence of the Higgs Mechanism as a discontinuous feature in a general family of Lagrangians obtained by varying its parameters. We…

This paper explores the argument structure of the concept of spontaneous symmetry breaking in the electroweak gauge theory of the Standard Model: the so-called Higgs mechanism. As commonly understood, the Higgs argument is designed to…

Using a four fermion interaction Lagrangian, we demonstrate that the spontaneous breaking of vector symmetries requires the existence of a light (comparing with the heavy fermion mass) scalar particle and the low energy effective theory…

In gauge theories, the physical, experimentally observable spectrum consists only of gauge-invariant states. This spectrum can be different from the elementary spectrum even at weak coupling and in the presence of the Brout-Englert-Higgs…

We propose a new, twistor string theory inspired formalism to calculate loop amplitudes in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. In this approach, maximal helicity violating (MHV) tree amplitudes of N=4 super Yang-Mills are used as vertices, using…

We extend our previous results on the evolution of quantum fermi fields in Minkowski gauge field backgrounds to the case of spontaneously broken gauge theories. We obtain a selection rule which relates the amount of fermion number violation…

The quantization of spontaneously broken gauge theories in noncommutative geometry(NCG) has been sought for some time, because quantization is crucial for making the NCG approach a reliable and physically acceptable theory. Lee, Hwang and…

We consider first the standard model Lagrangian with $\mu_h^2$ Higgs potential term set to zero. We point out that this clasically scale invariant theory potentially exhibits radiative electroweak/scale symmetry breaking with very high…

In calculations of the elementary scalar spectra of spontaneously broken gauge theories there is a number of subtleties which, though often unnecessary to deal with in the order-of-magnitude type of calculations, have to be taken into…

We report on some recent investigations of the structure of the four dimensional gauged supergravity Lagrangian which emerges from flux and Scherk-Schwarz compactifications in higher dimensions. Special attention is given to the gauge…

If an extra supersymmetric U(1) gauge factor exists at the TeV energy scale, which is then broken together with the supersymmetry, there will be several interesting and important phenomenological consequences, not only at the TeV scale, but…

We discuss some issues related to spontaneous N=2-> N=1 supersymmetry breaking. In particular, we state a set of geometrical conditions which are necessary that such a breaking occurs. Furthermore, we discuss the low energy N=1 effective…

We explore a novel way of deriving the effective Higgs Lagrangian from strongly interacting vector-like gauge theories. We consider the N=1 supersymmetric extension of gauge theories and interpret the auxiliary field associated with the low…

We discuss the amplitudes describing N-gluon scattering in type I superstring theory, on a disk world-sheet. After reviewing the general structure of amplitudes and the complications created by the presence of a large number of vertices at…

The light-cone Hamiltonian approach is applied to the super D2-brane, and the equivalent area--preserving and U(1) gauge-invariant effective Lagrangian, which is quadratic in the U(1) gauge field, is derived. The latter is recognised to be…

The spontaneous symmetry breaking (and Higgs) mechanism in the theory quantized on the light-front ({\it l.f.}), in the {\it discretized formulation}, is discussed. The infinite volume limit is taken to obtain the {\it continuum version}.…

Based on recent developments, in this letter we study the one parameter deformation of 2+1 dimensional gauge theories with scale invariance and N = 8 supersymmetry, which is expected to be the field theory living on a stack of M2 branes.…
