A generalization of classical gauge theory is presented, in the framework of a noncommutative-geometric formalism of quantum principal bundles over smooth manifolds. Quantum counterparts of classical gauge bundles, and classical gauge…

Around 1920, Kaluza and Klein had the idea to add a fifth dimension to the classical 4-dimensional spacetime of general relativity to create a geometric theory of gravitation and electromagnetism. Today, theoretical evidences, like string…

An operator generalisation of the notion of geometric phase has been recently proposed purely based on physical grounds. Here we provide a mathematical foundation for its existence, while uncovering new geometrical structures in quantum…

The topological properties of field configurations in gauge theory contain important data about the (generalized) global symmetries of the theory as well as potential inconsistencies in the form of gauge anomalies. In this work we modify…

A new formalism for spinors on curved spaces is developed in the framework of variational calculus on fibre bundles. The theory has the same structure of a gauge theory and describes the interaction between the gravitational field and…

In classical field theory, the composite fibred manifolds Y -> Z -> X provides the adequate mathematical formulation of gauge models with broken symmetries, e.g., the gauge gravitation theory. This work is devoted to connections on…

We introduce a geometric construction of a gauge field theory of a complex adaptive system. It is based on a suitable simplicial formulation of a discrete geometry that manifests relevant properties valid in the classical differentiable…

Projective spaces for finite-dimensional vector spaces over general fields are considered. The geometry of these spaces and the theory of line bundles over these spaces is presented. Particularly, the space of global regular sections of…

We review the concept of a graded bundle, which is a generalisation of a vector bundle, its linearisation, and a double structure of this kind. We then present applications of these structures in geometric mechanics including systems with…

In this article we investigate charged particles in gauge theories. After reviewing the physical and theoretical problems, a method to construct charged particles is presented. Explicit solutions are found in the Abelian theory and a…

Based on the equivalence between a gauge theory for the translation group and general relativity, a teleparallel version of the non-abelian Kaluza-Klein theory is constructed. In this theory, only the fiber-space turns out to be…

The scope of this review is to give a pedagogical introduction to some new calculations and methods developed by the author in the context of quantum groups and their applications. The review is self- contained and serves as a "first aid…

Relying upon the equivalence between a gauge theory for the translation group and general relativity, a teleparallel version of the original Kaluza-Klein theory is developed. In this model, only the internal space (fiber) turns out to be…

Geometric phases are ubiquitous in physics; they act as memories of the transformation of a physical system. In optics, the most prominent examples are the Pancharatnam-Berry phase and the spin-redirection phase. Recent technological…

We study the response of quantum many-body systems to coupling some of their degrees of freedom to external gauge fields. This serves to understand the current Green functions and transport properties of interacting many-body systems. Our…

In these notes we discuss the topological nature of some problems in condensed matter physics. We adopt the language of differential geometry to present this subject and our aim is to develop some intuition towards concepts like curvature,…

We derive the anomaly 8-form of 6-dimensional gauge theories arising in F theory compactifications on elliptic Calabi-Yau threefolds. The result allows to determine the matter content of certain such theories in terms of intersection…

In this work, we present a brief but insightful overview of the gauge theories, which are defined on $ n $-dimensional lattices by using finite gauge groups, in order to show how they can be interpreted as a Hamiltonian system with…

This thesis develops the theory of bundle gerbes and examines a number of useful constructions in this theory. These allow us to gain a greater insight into the structure of bundle gerbes and related objects. Furthermore they naturally lead…

This review paper is concerned with the generalizations to field theory of the tangent and cotangent structures and bundles that play fundamental roles in the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of classical mechanics. The paper…
