We study $4$-dimensional $SU(N)\times U(1)$ gauge theories with a single massless Dirac fermion in the $2$-index symmetric/antisymmetric representations and show that they are endowed with a noninvertible $0$-form $\widetilde {\mathbb…
In some of the physically interesting gauge systems, we show that the application of the Noether theorem does not lead to the deduction of the Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST charges that obey precisely the off-shell…
We extend the standard construction of conserved currents for matter fields in general relativity to general gauge theories. In the original construction the conserved current associated with a spacetime symmetry generated by a Killing…
Using the U(1)_Q invariance, the photon eigenstate and matching gauge coupling constants in SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_X models with beta arbitrary are given. The mass matrix of neutral gauge bosons is exactly diagonalized, and the photon…
The duality symmetry between electricity and magnetism hidden in classical Maxwell equations suggests the existence of dual charges, which have usually been interpreted as magnetic charges and have not been observed in experiments. In…
Ab initio quantum chemistry reveals how the charge-antisymmetric antihydrogenic antiHH+ state, deriving from conventional positional antisymmetry of a 3-unit charge system, is hidden in the PEC (potential energy curve) of the molecular…
We show that Lorentz symmetry is generally absent for noncommutative (abelian) gauge theories and obtain a compact formula for the divergence of the Noether currents that allows a throughout study of this instance of symmetry violation. We…
We describe recent progress in understanding the continuous symmetry properties of non-Hermitian, PT-symmetric quantum field theories. Focussing on a simple non-Hermitian theory composed of one complex scalar and one complex pseudoscalar,…
Motivated by recent discussions of fractons, we explore nonrelativistic field theories with a continuous global symmetry, whose charge is a spatial vector. We present several such symmetries and demonstrate them in concrete examples. They…
We extend the asymptotic symmetries of electromagnetism in order to consistently include angle-dependent $u(1)$ gauge transformations $\epsilon$ that involve terms growing at spatial infinity linearly and logarithmically in $r$, $\epsilon…
Quantum Electrodynamics can be formulated as the theory of an antisymmetric tensor gauge field. In this formulation the topological current of this field appears as an additional source for the electromagnetic field. The topological charge…
We show that QED in the Coulomb gauge can be considered as a low energy linear approximation of a non-linear $\sigma $-type model where the photon emerges as a vector Goldstone boson related to the spontaneous breakdown of Lorentz symmetry…
A new local, covariant and nilpotent symmetry is shown to exist for the interacting BRST invariant U(1) gauge theory in two dimensions of space-time. Under this new symmetry, it is the gauge-fixing term that remains invariant and the…
We formulate a quantum coherent state picture for topological and non-topological solitons. We recognize that the topological charge arises from the infinite occupation number of zero momentum quanta flowing in one direction. Thus, the…
A new supersymmetric standard model based on N=1 supergravity is constructed, aiming at natural explanation for the proton stability without invoking an ad hoc discrete symmetry through R parity. The proton is protected from decay by an…
It is shown how to break the symmetry of a Lagrangian with duality symmetry between electric and magnetic monopoles, so that at low energy, electric monopole interactions continue to be observed but magnetic monopole interactions become…
We give the generalization of a recent variational formulation for nonconservative classical mechanics, for fermionic and sypersymmetric systems. Both cases require slightly modified boundary conditions. The supersymmetric version is given…
We present results of numerical simulations for pure U(1) gauge theory in a non-commutative space. The theory is mapped onto a dimensionally reduced matrix model, which renders its numerical treatment feasible. New data on large lattices…
We discuss the gauge invariance of quark-quark potential in QCD in the perturbative treatment, and show that the gauge dependence of the quark-gluon interaction cannot be eliminated. Therefore, the quark-quark potential cannot properly be…
We investigate asymptotic symmetries which preserve the Bondi gauge conditions but do not preserve the asymptotic falloff conditions for the metric near the null boundary, and their connection to soft graviton theorems for scattering…
