A reformulation of a physical theory in which measurements at the initial and final moments of time are treated independently is discussed, both on the classical and quantum levels. Methods of the standard quantum mechanics are used to…

In some insulators, corner charges are fractionally quantized, due to the topological invariant called a filling anomaly. The previous theories of fractional corner charges have been mostly limited to two-dimensional systems. In three…

We discuss the possibility of a central extension of the Poincar\'e algebra and the scaling Poincar\'e algebra. In more than two space-time dimensions, all the central extensions are trivial and can be removed. In two space-time dimensions,…

It is shown in the covariant phase space formalism that the Noether charges with respect to the diffeomorphism generated by vector fields and their horizontal variations in general relativity form a diffeomorphism algebra. It is also shown…

Different types of transformations of a dynamical system, that are compatible with the Hamiltonian structure, are discussed making use of a geometric formalism. Firstly, the case of canonoid transformations is studied with great detail and…

We calculate the central charges a, c and k_G of a large class of four-dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories arising from compactifying the six-dimensional N=(2,0) theory on a Riemann surface with regular and irregular punctures. We…

Gauge symmetries play a fundamental role in Physics, as they provide a mathematical justification for the fundamental forces. Usually, one starts from a non-interactive theory which governs `matter', and features a global symmetry. One then…

Some of the important non-classical aspects of quantum mechanics can be described in more intuitive terms if they are reformulated in a geometrical picture based on an extension of the classical phase space. This contribution presents…

One approach for formulating the classical dynamics of charged particles in non-Abelian gauge theories is due to Wong. Following Wong's approach, we derive the classical equations of motion of a charged particle in U(1) gauge theory on…

Inspired by holographic entanglement entropy, for geometries with non-zero abelian charges, we define a quantity which is sensitive to the background charges. One observes that there is a critical charge below that the system is mainly…

The logical line is traced of formulation of theory of mechanics founded on the basic correlations of mathematics of hypercomplex numbers and associated geometric images. Namely, it is shown that the physical equations of quantum, classical…

In Field theories with simple or semi-simple unitary, local or global symmetries, the electric charge is related to a global one. This is the case also in electroweak gauge theories even before the spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB), where…

The free algebra adjunction, between the category of algebras of a monad and the underlying category, induces a comonad on the category of algebras. The coalgebras of this comonad are the topic of study in this paper (following earlier…

Extra dimensions are introduced: 3 in Classical Mechanics and 6 in Relativistic Mechanics, which represent orientations, resulting from rotations, of a particle, described by quaternions, and leading to a 7-dimensional, respectively…

We consider a linearly elastic composite medium, which consists of a homogeneous matrix containing statistically inhomogeneous random set of heterogeneities and loaded by inhomogeneous remote loading. The new general integral equation is…

We propose a general notion of algebraic gauge theory obtained via extracting the main properties of classical gauge theory. Building on a recent work on transferring curved $A_{\infty}$-structures we show that, under certain technical…

Based on the assumption that time evolves only in one direction and mechanical systems can be described by Lagrangeans, a dynamical C*-algebra is presented for non-relativistic particles at atomic scales. Without presupposing any…

The classical electron is presented as made up of an electric charge and two Dirac monopoles of opposite charge performing a magnetic dipole. It is discussed that a valid variational principle for this system can be defined. The Dirac…

We show the existence of a noncommutative spacetime structure in the context of a complete discussion on the underlying spacetime symmetries for the physical system of a free massless relativistic particle. The above spacetime symmetry…

It is shown that the independence of the continuum hypothesis points to the unique definite status of the set of intermediate cardinality: the intermediate set exists only as a subset of continuum. This latent status is a consequence of…
