It is demonstrated that fermionic/bosonic symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases across different dimensions and symmetry classes can be organized using geometric constructions that increase dimensions and symmetry-forgetting maps that…

We consider two-dimensional chiral, first-order conformal field theories governing maps from the Riemann sphere to the projective light cone inside Minkowski space -- the natural setting for describing conformal field theories in two fewer…

We study equivariant localization formulas for phase space path integrals when the phase space is a multiply connected compact Riemann surface. We consider the Hamiltonian systems to which the localization formulas are applicable and show…

We perform a reduced phase space quantization of gravity using four Klein-Gordon scalar fields as reference matter as an alternative to the Brown-Kuchar dust model in [1], where dust scalar fields are used. We compare our results to an…

We define a complex relativistic phase space which is the space $\mathbb{C}^4$ equipped with the Minkowski metric and with a geometric tri-product on it. The geometric tri-product is similar to the triple product of the bounded symmetric…

We study non-interacting electrons in disordered materials which exhibit a spectral gap, in each of the ten Altland--Zirnbauer symmetry classes, in all space dimensions. We define an appropriate space of Hamiltonians and a topology on it so…

In the presence of classical phase space singularities the standard methods are insufficient to attack the problem of quantization.In certain situations the difficulties can be overcome by means of K\"ahler quantization on stratified…

As a natural analog of Urysohn's inequality in Euclidean space, Gao, Hug, and Schneider showed in 2003 that in spherical or hyperbolic space, the total measure of totally geodesic hypersurfaces meeting a given convex body K is minimized…

We construct two types of phase spaces for asymptotically de Sitter Einstein-Hilbert gravity in each spacetime dimension $d \ge 3$. One type contains solutions asymptotic to the expanding spatially-flat ($k=0$) cosmological patch of de…

In this article a description of the reduced phase space of the standard model coupled to gravity is given. For space or time-like boundaries this is achieved as the reduction of a symplectic space with respect to a coisotropic submanifold…

The geometric phase requires the multivaluedness of solutions to Fuchsian second-order equations. The angle, or its complement, is given by half the area of a spherical triangle in the case of three singular points, or half the area of a…

The Kerr-Schild (KS) geometry is linked tightly with the auxiliary \emph{flat} Minkowski background. Nevertheless, it describes many curved space-times and the related physical models, starting from cosmology and black holes to the…

We investigate topology changing processes in the WKB approximation of four dimensional quantum cosmology with a negative cosmological constant. As Riemannian manifolds which describe quantum tunnelings of spacetime we consider constant…

We derive an effective Hamiltonian for a quantum system constrained to a submanifold (the constraint manifold) of configuration space (the ambient space) by an infinite restoring force. We pay special attention to how this Hamiltonian…

In stochastic quantization, ordinary 4-dimensional Euclidean quantum field theory is expressed as a functional integral over fields in 5 dimensions with a fictitious 5th time. This is advantageous, in particular for gauge theories, because…

The imposition of symmetries or special geometric properties on submanifolds is less restrictive than to impose them in the full space-time. Starting from this idea, in this paper we study irrotational dust cosmological models in which the…

Starting from the canonical phase space for discretised (4d) BF-theory, we implement a canonical version of the simplicity constraints and construct phase spaces for simplicial geometries. Our construction allows us to study the connection…

Over the past decades, many authors advertised models on complexified spacetime algebras for use in describing gravity. This work aims at providing phenomenological support to such claims, by introducing a one-parameter real phase $\alpha$…

Manifold reconstruction has been extensively studied for the last decade or so, especially in two and three dimensions. Recently, significant improvements were made in higher dimensions, leading to new methods to reconstruct large classes…

We apply the reduced phase space quantization to the Kasner universe. We construct the kinematical phase space, find solutions to the Hamilton equations of motion, identify Dirac observables and arrive at physical solutions in terms of…
