We consider the importance of the second-order dissipative self force for gravitational wave dephasing for an extreme or intermediate mass ratio system moving along a quasi-circular Schwarzschild orbit. For the first-order self force we use…

We present generic form of the covariant nonlocal action for infrared modifications of Einstein theory recently suggested within the weak-field curvature expansion. In the lowest order it is determined by two nonlocal operators -- kernels…

We propose a new gauge field theory which is an extension of ordinary string field theory by assembling multiple state spaces of the bosonic string. The theory includes higher spin fields in its massless spectrum together with the infinite…

Precise knowledge of magnetic fields is crucial in many medical imaging applications like magnetic resonance imaging or magnetic particle imaging (MPI) as they are the foundation of these imaging systems. For the investigation of the…

We give in this paper an explicit construction of the covariant quantization of the rank-two massless tensor field on de Sitter space (linear covariant quantum gravity on a de Sitter background). The main ingredient of the construction is…

We analize the algebraic structure of consistent and covariant anomalies in gauge and gravitational theories: using a complex extension of the Lie algebra it is possible to describe them in a unified way. Then we study their representations…

The application of a gauge covariant derivative to the Euler-Lagrange equation yields a shortcut to the equations of motion for a field subject to an external force. The gauge covariant derivative includes an external force as an intrinsic…

The seminal paper of Francfort and Marigo [FM] introduced a variational formulation for Griffith fracture that has resulted in substantial theoretical and practical progress in modeling and simulating fracture. In particular, it led to the…

The success of the moving puncture method for the numerical simulation of black hole systems can be partially explained by the properties of stationary solutions of the 1+log coordinate condition. We compute stationary 1+log slices of the…

Following our previous work wherein the leading order effective action was computed in the covariant effective field theory of gravity, here we specialize the effective action to the FRW spacetime and obtain the effective Friedmann…

In order to extract physical parameters from the waveform of an extreme-mass-ratio binary, one requires a second-order--accurate description of the motion of the smaller of the two objects in the binary. Using a method of matched asymptotic…

We study the structure of scalar, vector, and tensor currents for on-shell massive particles of any spin. When considering higher values for the spin of the particle, the number of form factors (FFs) involved in the decomposition of the…

The covariant phase space of a Lagrangian field theory is the solution space of the associated Euler-Lagrange equations. It is, in principle, a nice environment for covariant quantization of a Lagrangian field theory. Indeed, it is…

All standard measures of bipartite entanglement in one-dimensional quantum field theories can be expressed in terms of correlators of branch point twist fields, here denoted by $\mathcal{T}$ and $\mathcal{T}^\dagger$. These are symmetry…

In this paper, we investigate a three-dimensional gravitational model known as Minimal Massive Gravity (MMG), which includes an auxiliary field, using the covariant phase space method. Our analysis reveals the presence of three gauge…

In earlier work, using the light cone picture, a world sheet field theory that sums planar phi^3 graphs was constructed and developed. Since this theory is both non-local and not explicitly Lorentz invariant, it is desirable to have a…

We recast the action of pure gravity into a form that is invariant under a twofold Lorentz symmetry. To derive this representation, we construct a general parameterization of all theories equivalent to the Einstein-Hilbert action up to a…

We continue the development of the effective covariant methods for calculating the heat kernel and the one-loop effective action in quantum field theory and quantum gravity. The status of the low-energy approximation in quantum gauge…

Particle localization within quantum field theory is revisited. Canonical quantization of a free scalar field theory is performed in a manifestly Lorentz covariant way with respect to an arbitrary 3-surface $\Sigma$, which is the…

Post-adiabatic models of extreme- and intermediate-mass-ratio inspirals will require calculations of second-order gravitational self-force effects in the spacetime of a spinning, Kerr black hole. We take a step toward such calculations by…
