We construct the Wightman function for symmetric traceless tensors and Dirac fermions in dS$_{d+1}$ in a coordinate and index free formalism using a $d+2$ dimensional ambient space. We expand the embedding space formalism to cover spinor…

Chiral orbifold models are defined as gauge field theories with a finite gauge group $\Gamma$. We start with a conformal current algebra A associated with a connected compact Lie group G and a negative definite integral invariant bilinear…

We use classical (Penrose) two-component spinors to set up the differential geometry of two parabolic contact structures in five dimensions, namely $G_2$ contact geometry and Legendrean contact geometry. The key players in these two…

We study symplectic manifolds $(M^{2l},\omega)$ equipped with a symplectic torsion-free affine (also called Fedosov) connection $\nabla$ and admitting a metaplectic structure. Let $\mathcal{S}$ be the so called symplectic spinor bundle and…

We present explicit formulas for the spectra of higher spin operators on the subbundle of the bundle of spinor-valued trace free symmetric tensors that are annihilated by the Clifford multiplication over the standard sphere in odd…

We classify locally homogeneous quasi-Sasakian manifolds in dimension five that admit a parallel spinor $\psi$ of algebraic type $F \cdot \psi = 0$ with respect to the unique connection $\nabla$ preserving the quasi-Sasakian structure and…

In this paper, we write down Seiberg-Witten equations on contact metric manifolds of dimension 5. Any contact metric manifold has a spin^c structure. For Dirac equation we use Dirac type operators associated to the generalized…

One step towards realistic Kaluza-Klein[like] theories and a loop hole through the Witten's "no-go theorem" is presented for cases which we call an effective two dimensionality cases: In $d=2$ the equations of motion following from the…

We study duality twisted reductions of the Double Field Theory (DFT) of the RR sector of massless Type II theory, with twists belonging to the duality group $Spin^+(10,10)$. We determine the action and the gauge algebra of the resulting…

We develop a spinorial description of CR structures of arbitrary codimension. More precisely, we characterize almost CR structures of arbitrary codimension on (Riemannian) manifolds by the existence of a Spin$^{c, r}$ structure carrying a…

Four-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric Spin(N) gauge theories with matter in the vector and spinor representations are considered. Dual descriptions are known for some of these theories. It is noted that when masses are given to all fields in…

Let F be a global field and A its ring of adeles. Let G:=SL(2). We study the bilinear form B on the space of K-finite smooth compactly supported functions on G(A )/G(F) defined by the formula B (f,g):=B'(f,g)-(M^{-1}CT (f),CT (g)), where B'…

In this article we study field-theoretical aspects of multipolar topological insulators. Previous research has shown that such systems naturally couple to higher-rank tensor gauge fields that arise as a result of gauging dipole or subsystem…

Pure spinor formalism implies that supergravity equations in space-time are equivalent to the requirement that the worldsheet sigma-model satisfies certain properties. Here we point out that one of these properties has a particularly…

This article reveals a significant connection in geometry: when the Lee form $\theta$ is normal to an almost Hermitian manifold $N$, it implies that $N$ possesses a nearly K\"ahler structure. Investigating locally conformally Spin(7)…

The algebra of the generators for infinitesimal transformations of the $\Gamma={1 \over 2}$ representation of causal spinor fields (Dirac fields) \emph{explicitly} constructs the Minkowski metric \emph{within} the internal group space as a…

Starting from the zero modes of the Dirac-Weyl equation for Landau levels in the symmetric gauge, we propose a novel mechanism to construct the eigenvalues and its eigenfunctions. We show that the problem may be addressed without numerical…

Using an approach based on the Casimir operators of the de Sitter group, the conformal invariant equations for a fundamental spin-2 field are obtained, and their consistency discussed. It is shown that, only when the spin-2 field is…

We study ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric $Spin(10)$ chiral gauge theories with a single spinor representation and $N$ vector representations. We present a dual description in terms of an ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric $SU(N-5)$ chiral gauge theory…

A decade ago, it was shown that associated with any model for $\mathsf{U}(1)$ duality-invariant nonlinear electrodynamics there is a unique $\mathsf{U}(1)$ duality-invariant supersymmetric nonlinear sigma model formulated in terms of chiral…
