We study the semi-classical thermodynamics of two-dimensional de Sitter space ($\text{dS}_{2}$) in Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity coupled to conformal matter. We extend the quasi-local formalism of Brown and York to $\text{dS}_{2}$, where a…
The aim of this paper is to create a large geometrical background on the dual 1-jet space J^{1*}(T,M) for a multi-time Hamiltonian approach of the electromagnetic and gravitational physical fields. Our geometric-physical construction is…
The present paper deals to the quintom model of dark energy. We introduce a first-order formalism, which shows how to relate the potential that specifies the scalar field model to Hubble parameter. Reviewing briefly the quintom scenario of…
In this second article of a series we propose to base criteria of stability on the hamiltonian functional that is provided by the variational principle, to replace the reliance that has often been placed on {\it ad hoc} definitions of the…
The applicability of the factorization method is extended to the case of quantum fractional-differential Hamiltonians. In contrast with the conventional factorization, it is shown that the `factorization energy' is now a…
The diagonalization of the metrical and canonical Hamilton operators of a scalar field with an arbitrary coupling, with a curvature in N-dimensional homogeneous isotropic space is considered in this paper. The energy spectrum of the…
We derive the gravitational Hamiltonian starting from the Gauss-Bonnet action, keeping track of all surface terms. This is done using the language of orthonormal frames and forms to keep things as tidy as possible. The surface terms in the…
We extend to the Horndeski realm the irreversible thermodynamics description of gravity previously studied in "first generation" scalar-tensor theories. We identify a subclass of Horndeski theories as an out-of--equilibrium state, while…
We introduce a Hamiltonian framework for nonlocal Lagrangian systems without relying on infinite-derivative expansions. Starting from a (trajectory-based) variational principle and a generalized Noether theorem, we define the canonical…
We establish the Hamiltonian analysis and the canonical path integral for a local formulation of vacuum energy sequestering. In particular, by considering the state of the universe as a superposition of vacuum states corresponding to…
We derive a formula describing the transformation of the Hawking-Hayward quasi-local energy under a conformal rescaling of the spacetime metric. A known formula for the transformation of the Misner-Sharp-Hernandez mass is recovered as a…
We consider the cubic and quintic Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) hierarchies in $d$ dimensions, for focusing and defocusing interactions. We introduce new higher order energy functionals and prove that they are conserved for solutions of energy…
A new treatment of the gravitational energy on the basis of 4-index gravitational equations is reviewed. The gravitational energy for the Schwarzschild field is considered.
We construct the covariant nonlocal action for recently suggested long-distance modifications of gravity theory motivated by the cosmological constant and cosmological acceleration problems. This construction is based on the special…
We define a numerical scheme that allows to approximate a given Hamiltonian by an effective one, by requiring several constraints determined by exact properties of generic ''short range'' Hamiltonians. In this way the standard lattice fixed…
Consider a homogenous fluid membrane described by the Helfrich-Canham energy, quadratic in the mean curvature of the membrane surface. The shape equation that determines equilibrium configurations is fourth order in derivatives and cubic in…
We show that in a generic scalar-tensor theory of gravity, the ``referenced'' quasilocal mass of a spatially bounded region in a classical solution is invariant under conformal transformations of the spacetime metric. We first extend the…
Pointlike objects cause many of the divergences that afflict physical theories. For instance, the gravitational binding energy of a point particle in Newtonian mechanics is infinite. In general relativity, the analog of a point particle is…
We define, as local quantities, the least energy and momentum allowed by quantum mechanics and special relativity for physical realizations of some classical lattice dynamics. These definitions depend on local rates of finite-state change.…
A long-wavelength, low energy hamiltonian is derived to describe the dynamic of a single hole in a quantum antiferromagnet in two or higher spatial dimensions. In this {\em exactly solvable} limit a {\em new} kind of symmetry is important…
