We provide an explicit algorithm to calculate invariant tensors for the adjoint representation of the simple Lie algebra $sl(n)$, as well as arbitrary representation in terms of roots. We also obtain explicit formulae for the adjoint…

Contemporary presentation of the version 1 demonstrates briefly the development of our investigations and our future goals. The improved free of difficulties in interpretation and printing errors version is presented. The 256-dimensional…

A modification of the harmonic superfield formalism in $D=4, N=2$ supergravity using a subsidiary condition of covariance under the background supersymmetry with a central charge ($B$-covariance) is considered. Conservation of analyticity…

Within the context of top-down holography, we study a one-parameter family of regular background solutions of maximal gauged supergravity in seven dimensions, dimensionally reduced on a 2-torus. The dual, four-dimensional confining field…

The SO(2,10) covariant extension of M-theory superalgebra is considered, with the aim to construct a correspondingly generalized M-theory, or 11d supergravity. For the orbit, corresponding to the $11d$ supergravity multiplet, the simplest…

In this work we explore the dynamics of the generalized hybrid metric-Palatini theory of gravity in the weak-field, slow-motion regime. We start by introducing the equivalent scalar-tensor representation of the theory, which contains two…

The c-map of four dimensional non-linear theories of electromagnetism is considered both in the rigid case and in its coupling to gravity. In this way theories with antisymmetric tensors and scalars are obtained, and the three non-linear…

We study the semiclassical limit of a class of invariant tensors for infinite-dimensional unitary representations of $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ of the principal series, corresponding to generalized Clebsch-Gordan coefficients with $n\geq3$…

We develop a novel approach to gravity in which gravity is described by a matrix-valued symmetric two-tensor field and construct an invariant functional that reduces to the standard Einstein-Hilbert action in the commutative limit. We also…

We consider spinor representations of the conformal group. The spacetime is constructed by the 15-dimensional vectors in the adjoint representation of $SO(2,4)$. On the spacetime, we construct a gravitational model that is invariant under…

This thesis focuses on the application of numerical relativity methods to the solutions of problems in strong gravity. Our goal is the study of mergers of compact objects in the strong field regime where non-linear dynamics manifest and…

In the context of the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity, we show that the energy-momentum density for the gravitational field can be described by a true spacetime tensor. It is also invariant under local (gauge) translations of…

Let $G$ be a complex classical group, and let $V$ be its defining representation (possibly plus a copy of the dual). A foundational problem in classical invariant theory is to write down generators and relations for the ring of…

We find the set of generalized symmetries associated with the free graviton theory in four dimensions. These are generated by gauge invariant topological operators that violate Haag duality in ring-like regions. As expected from general QFT…

In part I of [1] we have developed the tensor and spin representation of SO(4) in order to apply it to the simplicial decomposition of the Barrett-Crane model. We attach to each face of a triangle the spherical function constructed from the…

We express the action of six-dimensional supergravity in terms of four-dimensional N=1 superfields, focusing on the moduli dependence of the action. The gauge invariance of the action in the tensor-vector sector is realized in a quite…

General Relativity extended through a dynamical scalar quartet is proposed as a theory of the scalar-vector-tensor gravity, generically describing the unified gravitational dark matter (DM) and dark energy (DE). The implementation in the…

In a attempt to treat a supergravity as a tensor representation, the 4-dimensional N-extended quaternionic superspaces are constructed from the (diffeomorphyc)graded extension of the ordinary Penrose-twistor formulation, performed in a…

We revisit an emergent gravity scenario in $(4+1)$ dimensions underlying a propagating geometric torsion ${\cal H}_3$ with a renewed interest. We show that a pair-symmetric $4$th order curvature tensor is sourced by a two-form Neveu-Schwarz…

We present an efficient method for finding the independent invariant tensors of a gauge theory. Our method uses a theorem relating invariant tensors and D-flat directions in field space. We apply our method to several examples-- SO(3) with…
