A gauged $SU_q(2)$ theory is characterized by two dual algebras, the first lying close to the Lie algebra of SU(2) while the second introduces new degrees of freedom that may be associated with non-locality or solitonic structure. The first…
This note addresses the question whether in a gauge theory coupled to gravity internal and spacetime transformation can be mixed. It is shown that if the VEV of the gauge field is flat, the symmetry group is always a product of internal and…
The gauge principle is a cornerstone of particle-physics model building. Nevertheless, many constructions leave certain global $U(1)$ redundancies ungauged. In this work, we take the gauge principle to its logical extreme by promoting all…
Reformulation of the Dirac equation in terms of the real Spacetime Algebra (STA) reveals hidden geometric structure, including a geometric role for the unit imaginary as generator of rotations in a spacelike plane. The STA and the real…
This paper is the SU(3) extension of the dynamically generated SU(2) linear $\sigma$ model Lagrangian worked out previously using dimensional regularization. After discussing the quark-level Goldberger-Treiman relations for SU(3) and the…
Within the framework of the universal algebra of the electromagnetic field, the impact of globally neutral configurations of external charges on the field is analyzed. External charges are not affected by the field, but they induce…
We study the phase diagram of the SU(2) lattice gauge theory with fundamental-adjoint Wilson plaquette action. We confirm the presence of a first order bulk phase transition and we estimate the location of its end-point in the bare…
Symmetry algebras deriving from towers of soft theorems can be deformed by a short list of higher-dimension Wilsonian corrections to the effective action. We study the simplest of these deformations in gauge theory arising from a massless…
We show that one can construct two equivalent gauge theories from a linking theory and give a general construction principle for linking theories which we use to construct a linking theory that proves the equivalence of General Relativity…
Just as gauge theory describes the parallel transport of point particles using connections on bundles, higher gauge theory describes the parallel transport of 1-dimensional objects (e.g. strings) using 2-connections on 2-bundles. A 2-bundle…
The problem of the gauge hierarchy is brought up in a hypercomplex scheme for a U(1) field theory; in such a scheme a compact gauge group is deformed through a \gamma-parameter that varies along a non-compact internal direction, transverse…
In this paper we put forward a systematic and unifying approach to construct gauge invariant composite fields out of connections. It relies on the existence in the theory of a group valued field with a prescribed gauge transformation. As an…
Within the recently proposed structure-inclusive algebraic formulation of quantum field theory, we show that a massless particle can acquire mass by special nonlinear coupling to a universal massless scalar field; establishing an…
We present an algorithm for simulation of $SU(2)$ lattice gauge theory under the MA gauge and first numerical results for the theory without abelian monopoles. The results support the idea that nonperturbative interaction arises between…
The measured values of two electroweak gauge couplings appear to obey an approximate 5% SU(3) relation. Unless this is an accident caused by fortuitous Planck-scale physics, it suggests the presence of an SU(3) symmetry near the electroweak…
We propose a framework in which visible matter interacts with matter from a hidden sector through mass mixings of St\"uckelberg U(1) gauge fields. In contrast to other Z' mediation scenarios, our setup has the added appealing features that…
We discuss an alternative to the Higgs mechanism which leads to gauge invariant masses for the electroweak bosons. The key idea is to reformulate the gauge invariance principle which, instead of being applied as usual at the level of the…
The spectrum-generating algebra (SGA) for charged superstrings placed in constant background magnetic fields is constructed. Contrary to the neutral string this algebra is characteristic of including the cyclotron frequency. The Regge…
The algebraic approach to quantum physics emphasizes the role played by the structure of the algebra of observables and its relation to the space of states. An important feature of this point of view is that subsystems can be described by…
SU(2)xU(1) electroweak gauge model without Higgs sector is extended by a new vector field C interacting with leptons and quarks of both chiralities. This interaction is treated under a dynamical assumption in a self-consistent…
