The extension of nonlinear higher-spin equations in d=4 proposed in [arXiv:1504.07289] for the construction of invariant functional is shown to respect local Lorentz symmetry. The equations are rewritten in a manifestly Lorentz covariant…

We propose a novel formulation for a manifestly Lorentz-covariant spinor wave-packet basis. The traditional definition of the spinor wave packet is problematic due to its unavoidable mixing with other wave packets under Lorentz…

We investigate the relativistic dynamics of a spin half particle in the presence of a Lorentz-violating background within the framework of effective field theory. A modified Dirac Hamiltonian is considered, arising from a CPT odd coupling…

The properties of the high energy behavior of the scattering amplitude of massive, neutral and spinless particles in higher dimensional field theories are investigated. The axiomatic formulation of Lehmann, Symanzik and Zimmermann is…

We show that large gauge transformations modify the structure of momentum conservation leading to non-vanishing three-point amplitudes in a simple toy model of a gravitational wave event. This phenomenon resolves an apparent tension between…

Despite the tremendous empirical success of equivalence principle, there are several theoretical motivations for existence of a preferred reference frame (or aether) in a consistent theory of quantum gravity. However, if quantum gravity had…

Constants of Nature that have nongeneric values pose a riddle often referred to as the finetuning problem. The conspicuous values assumed by many physical constants (e.g., the vanishing effective cosmological constant, the smallness of the…

We study the fixed point problem for a system of multivariate operators that are coordinate-wise monotone (i.e., nondecreasing or nonincreasing in each of the variables, independently), in the setting of quasi-ordered sets. We show that…

In the minimal helicity-chirality formalism, we systematically construct higher-point massive amplitudes from the fundamental building blocks: the contact three-point and four-point massive amplitudes. The inclusion of four-point contact…

Pure massive gravity is strongly coupled at a certain low scale, known as Lambda_3. I show that the theory can be embedded into another one, with new light degrees of freedom, to increase the strong scale to a significantly larger value.…

We construct the unintegrated vertex operator at the first mass level of the open superstring from the OPE of massless vertices. Using BRST cohomology manipulations, the tree amplitude of two massless and one massive state is rewritten in…

In this letter, we investigate the effects of Lorentz symmetry violation on a relativistic neutral scalar boson within the framework of the Klein-Gordon formalism. We consider a tensor $(K_F)_{\mu \nu \alpha \beta}$ out of the Standard…

Covariant first and second quantization of the free d=4 massless superparticle are implemented with the introduction of purely gauge auxiliary spinor Lorentz harmonics. It is shown that the general solution of the condition of maslessness…

A structural explanation of the coupling constants in the standard model, i.e the fine structure constant and the Weinberg angle, and of the gauge fixing contributions is given in terms of symmetries and representation theory. The coupling…

We study asymptotics of three point coefficients (light-light-heavy) and two point correlators in heavy states in unitary, compact $2$D CFTs. We prove an upper and lower bound on such quantities using numerically assisted Tauberian…

For the five-dimensional spacetimes whose four-dimensional sections are static, spherically symmetric ($SO(3)$) and flat asymptotically, we study the behavior of Arnowitt-Deser-Misner mass, tension and momentum densities characterizing such…

Within the light-front approach in flat space, we study the closure of the Poincare algebra at the quartic order, specifically the nonholomorphic constraint involving both MHV and anti-MHV vertices. We first recover some well-established…

If textbook Lorentz invariance is actually a property of the equations describing a sector of matter above some critical distance scale, several sectors of matter with different critical speeds in vacuum can coexist and an absolute rest…

The Lorentz symmetry group entails physical equations whose solutions are retarded. This leads to the concept of a relativistic engine resulting from retardation of electromagnetic fields. We have shown that Newton'n third law cannot…

In this work we investigate the matrix elements of the energy-momentum tensor for massless on-shell states in four-dimensional unitary, local, and Poincar\'e covariant quantum field theories. We demonstrate that these matrix elements can be…
