We study the loss of hyperbolicity of perturbation equations for black hole solutions of scalar Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We consider a class of coupling functions allowing for static black hole solutions with arbitrary small masses. For masses…

We consider black $p$-brane solutions of the low energy string action, computing scalar perturbations. Using standard methods, we derive the wave equations obeyed by the perturbations and treat them analytically and numerically. We have…

Exact solutions are obtained in the quadratic theory of gravity with a scalar field for wave-like models of space-time with spatial homogeneity symmetry and allowing the integration of the equations of motion of test particles in the…

In this thesis we deal with different aspects of quantum field theory, particularly in non-perturbative but also perturbative regimes, applied to the intellectual construction that is the Standard Model for Particle Physics (SM), but also…

We consider the Nelson model which describes a quantum system of nonrelativistic identical particles coupled to a possibly massless scalar Bose field through a Yukawa type interaction. We study the limiting behaviour of that model in a…

We generalise our previous formulation of gauge-invariant PT-symmetric field theories to include models with non-Abelian symmetries and discuss the extension to such models of the Englert-Brout-Higgs-Kibble mechanism for generating masses…

We derive the action for the non-abelian field theory living on parallel non-BPS D3-branes in type IIA theory on the orbifold T^4/I_4(-1)^F_L. The classical moduli space for the massless scalars originating in the ``would be'' tachyonic…

Cosmological solutions of the Brans-Dicke theory are investigated by including a quantum effect coming from 1-loop correction of matter fields that couple to the scalar field. As the most serious result we face a cosmological ``constant''…

Brane cosmologies with static, five-dimensional and Z_2 symmetric bulks are analysed. A general solution generating mechanism is outlined. The qualatitive cosmological behaviour of all such solutions is determined. Conditions for avoiding…

We find nonperturbative solutions of a nonlocal scalar field equation, with cubic or exponential potential on a cosmological background. The former case corresponds to the lowest level effective tachyon action of cubic string field theory.…

Weak field gravitational wave solutions are investigated in Brans-Dicke (BD) theory in the presence of a cosmological constant. In this setting the background geometry is not flat but asymptotically de-Sitter. We investigate the linearised…

The low energy regime of cosmological BPS-brane configurations with a bulk scalar field is studied. We construct a systematic method to obtain five-dimensional solutions to the full system of equations governing the geometry and dynamics of…

Bouncing non-singular isotropic cosmological solutions are investigated in a simple model of scalar-tensor gravity. New families of such solutions are found and their properties are presented and analyzed using an effective potential as the…

Explicit Robinson--Trautman solutions with electromagnetic field satisfying nonlinear field equations are derived and analyzed. The solutions are generated from the spherically symmetric ones. In all cases the electromagnetic field…

We construct perturbative static solutions to the classical field equations of noncommutative U(1) gauge theory for the three cases: a) space-time noncommutativity, b) space-space noncommutativity and c) both a) and b). The solutions tend…

Inhomogeneous quantum cosmology is modeled as a dynamical system of discrete patches, whose interacting many-body equations can be mapped to a non-linear minisuperspace equation by methods analogous to Bose-Einstein condensation.…

We consider ``cosmologically symmetric'' (i.e. solutions with homogeneity and isotropy along three spatial dimensions) five-dimensional spacetimes with a scalar field and a three-brane representing our universe. We write Einstein's…

We discuss supersymmetric $SU(2)$ gauge theory with a single matter field in the $I=3/2$ representation. This theory has a moduli space of exactly degenerate vacua. Classically it is the complex plane with an orbifold singularity at the…

We use nonlinear perturbation theory to obtain new solutions for brane world models that incorporate a massive bulk scalar field. We then consider tensor perturbations and show that Newtonian gravity is recovered on the brane for both a…

Minisuperspace models derived from Kaluza-Klein theories and low energy string theory are studied. They are equivalent to one and two minimally coupled scalar fields. The general classical and quantum solutions are obtained. Gaussian…
