Discrete Floquet time crystals (DFTC) are characterized by the spontaneous breaking of the discrete time-translational invariance characteristic of Floquet driven systems. In analogy with equilibrium critical points, also time-crystalline…
The idea that the quantum space-time of microphysics may be fractal everywhere was intensively investigated recently, and several authors have presented the geodesic equations of different fractal space - times. In the present work we…
We discuss the theoretical analysis and interpretation of space-time separated clock experiments in the context of a space-time varying scalar field that is non-universally coupled to the standard model fields. If massive, such a field is a…
In this letter, we exploit the Damour-Deruelle solution to derive the analytical expression of the coordinate time in terms of the polar angle. This formula has advantageous applications in both pulsar timing and gravitational-wave theory.
This article investigates the stability of pantograph delay differential equations, in which the delayed argument is proportional to the present time. We derive analytic criteria that partition the parameter plane into unstable,…
The aim of this short note is to give a synthetic presentation of the mathematical elements that are used to solve the elastic wave system of equations in a bounded anisotropic elastic body, in a general framework. In particular, the proof…
A generalized covariant method of analysis applicable to frames for which time is not orthogonal to space, such as spacetime around a star possessing angular momentum or on a rotating disk, is presented. Important aspects of such an…
This paper presents a numerical investigation of acoustic wave propagation in an obstacle with periodically time-modulated material parameters. We focus on the numerical construction of Floquet$-$Bloch solutions, which are quasi-periodic…
Spacetime is composed of a fluctuating arrangement of bubbles or loops called spacetime foam, or quantum foam. We use the holographic principle to deduce its structure, and show that the result is consistent with gedanken experiments…
The notion of spacetime symmetry is essential to describe gravitating physical systems like planets, stars, black holes, or the universe as a whole, since they possess, at least to good approximation, spherical, axial, or spatially…
We show the emergence of Floquet time crystal (FTC) phases in the Floquet dynamics of periodically driven $p$-spin models, which describe a collection of spin-1/2 particles with all-to-all $p$-body interactions. Given the mean-field nature…
Several stochastic processes with virtual particles in two dimensional space-time are presented whose mean field equations coincide with Schr\"odinger, Dirac, Klein-Gordon and the quantum mechanic equation for a photon. These processes…
We investigate timelike geodesics around Damour-Solodukhin wormholes, which are Schwarzschild-like geometries characterized by a deformation parameter $\lambda$ that determines the radius of the throat, $r_{\rm th}$. The radial potential…
In general relativity, cosmology and quantum field theory, spacetime is assumed to be an orientable manifold endowed with a Lorentz metric that makes it spatially and temporally orientable. The question as to whether the laws of physics…
We introduce the concept of effective phononic crystals, which combine periodicity with varying isotropic material properties to force periodic coefficients in the elastic equations of motion in a non-Cartesian basis. Periodic coefficients…
Difficulties around the idea of spontaneous breaking of time translation symmetry in a closed quantum mechanical system are identified, and then overcome in a simple model. The possibility of ordering in imaginary time is also discussed.
The behavior of a Bloch particle in a complex crystal with PT symmetry subjected to a sinusoidal ac force is theoretically investigated. For unbroken PT symmetry and in the single-band approximation, it is shown that time reversal symmetry…
We investigate the structure of the $\delta=2$ Tomimatsu-Sato spacetime. We show that this spacetime has degenerate horizons with two components, in contrast to the general belief that the Tomimatsu-Sato solutions with even $\delta$ do not…
We develop an analytical formalism for studying optical analogues of spherically symmetric black-hole spacetimes. We demonstrate the exact similarity between the electromagnetic wave equations in an inhomogeneous medium in flat spacetime…
We examine the distinct discrete time crystals (DTCs) that emerge in the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model, subjected to spatially nonuniform periodic driving. Intriguingly, we demonstrate that by appropriately tailoring the drive protocol,…
