We discuss the generalization of the local renormalization group approach to theories in which Weyl symmetry is gauged. These theories naturally correspond to scale invariant - rather than conformal invariant - models in the flat space…

In this paper we examine an alternative formulation of the gauge principle in which the emphasis is shifted from the symmetry transformations to their generators. We show that the gauge principle can be entirely reformulated in terms of…

We discuss a no-go theorem for the novel Ricci-inverse theory of modified gravity. By considering a static spherically symmetric matter distribution embedded within a de Sitter cosmology, we demonstrate that achieving a stable Sub-Horizon…

Gauge theory on the q-deformed two-dimensional Euclidean plane R^2_q is studied using two different approaches. We first formulate the theory using the natural algebraic structures on R^2_q, such as a covariant differential calculus, a…

The emergent Weyl modes with the broken time-reversal symmetry or inversion symmetry provide large Berry curvature and chirality to carriers, offering the realistic platforms to explore topology of electrons in three-dimensional systems.…

The aim of the current paper is to study the multiscalar-tensor theories of gravity without derivative couplings. We construct a few basic objects that are invariant under a Weyl rescaling of the metric and transform covariantly when the…

We obtain exact black hole solutions for static and spherically symmetric sources in a Weyl conformal gauge theory of gravity. We consider a quadratic gravitational action built from the Weyl tensor within a dilation geometry. In a…

We consider Weyl gauge theories of gravity (WGTs), which are invariant both under local Poincar\'e transformations and local changes of scale. Such theories may be interpreted as gauge theories in Minkowski spacetime, but their…

We prove that, in a space-time of dimension n>3 with a velocity field that is shear-free, vorticity-free and acceleration-free, the covariant divergence of the Weyl tensor is zero if the contraction of the Weyl tensor with the velocity is…

We investigate the field equations of the conformally invariant models of gravity with curvature-matter coupling, constructed in Weyl geometry, by using the Palatini formalism. We consider the case in which the Lagrangian is given by the…

For the description of observables and states of a quantum system, it may be convenient to use a canonical Weyl algebra of which only a subalgebra $\mathcal A$, with a non-trivial center $\mathcal Z$, describes observables, the other Weyl…

The Higgs mechanism gives mass to Yang-Mills gauge bosons. According to the conventional wisdom, this happens through the spontaneous breaking of gauge symmetry. Yet, gauge symmetries merely reflect a redundancy in the state description and…

The methods of non-linear realizations have proven to be powerful in studying the low energy physics resulting from spontaneously broken internal and spacetime symmetries. In this paper, we reconsider how these techniques may be applied to…

We present a method where derivations of star-product algebras are used to build covariant derivatives for noncommutative gauge theory. We write down a noncommutative action by linking these derivations to a frame field induced by a…

A class of globally scale-invariant scalar-tensor theories have been proposed to be invariant under a larger class of transformations that take the form of local Weyl transformations supplemented by a restriction that the conformal factor…

It is shown that in a quadratic gravity based on Weyl's conformal geometry, not only the Einstein-Hilbert action emerges but also a Weyl gauge field becomes massive in the Weyl gauge condition, $\tilde R = k$, for a Weyl gauge symmetry…

We show that the requirements of renormalizability and physical consistency imposed on perturbative interactions of massive vector mesons fix the theory essentially uniquely. In particular physical consistency demands the presence of at…

We point out that the Cartan geometry known as the second-order conformal structure provides a natural differential geometric framework underlying gauge theories of conformal gravity. We are concerned by two theories: the first one will be…

Kerr-Schild perturbations in General Relativity provide a fruitful way of constructing new exact solutions starting from known ones, elucidating also the structure of the spacetimes. We initiate such a study in the context of string theory…

We explore a model of gravity that arises from the consideration of the Chern-Simons form in 2+1 dimensions for a spin connection with a contorsion described by a scalar and a vector field. The effective Lagrangian presents a local Weyl…
