A class of negative definite kernels is defined in terms of measure spaces. Using this concept, property (T) for a countable group $\G$ is characterized in terms of measure preserving actions of $\G$, as follows. If a set $S$ is translated…

We develop a geometric approach to Poisson electrodynamics, that is, the semi-classical limit of noncommutative $U(1)$ gauge theory. Our framework is based on an integrating symplectic groupoid for the underlying Poisson brackets, which we…

We deform two-dimensional topological gravity by making use of its gauge theory formulation. The obtained noncommutative gravity model is shown to be invariant under a class of transformations that reduce to standard diffeomorphisms once…

We define a group of extended non-Abelian gauge transformations for tensor gauge fields. On this group one can define generalized field strength tensors, which are transforming homogeneously with respect to the extended gauge…

Let $\Omega=\{1,2,...,n\}$ where $n \ge 2$. The {\em shape} of an ordered set partition $P=(P_1,..., P_k)$ of $\Omega$ is the integer partition $\lambda=(\lambda_1,...,\lambda_k)$ defined by $\lambda_i = |P_i|$. Let G be a group of…

Gauge symmetries emerge from a redundant description of the effective action for light degrees of freedom after the decoupling of heavy modes. This redundant description avoids the use of explicit constraints in configuration space. For…

The four-dimensional gauge group of general relativity corresponds to arbitrary coordinate transformations on a four-manifold. Theories of gravity with a dynamical structure remarkably like Einstein's theory can be obtained on the basis of…

It was shown that in the small Wigner group there is a one-parameter subgroup of the Lorentz transformations, which leave unchanged not only the momentum of the fermion with spin h/2, but also its spin characteristics. This is the group of…

Let $X$ be a nonempty set and $\mathcal{P}=\{X_i\colon i\in I\}$ a partition of $X$. Denote by $T(X)$ the full transformation semigroup on $X$, and $T(X, \mathcal{P})$ the subsemigroup of $T(X)$ consisting of all transformations that…

We study spacetime diffeomorphisms in Hamiltonian and Lagrangian formalisms of generally covariant systems. We show that the gauge group for such a system is characterized by having generators which are projectable under the Legendre map.…

We demonstrate that the non-Hermitian quantum geometric tensor (QGT) governs nonlinear electrical responses in systems with a spectral line gap. The quantum metric, which is the symmetric component of the QGT and takes complex values in…

Using connection with quantum field theory, the infinitesimal covariant abelian gauge transformation laws of relativistic two-particle constraint theory wave functions and potentials are established and weak invariance of the corresponding…

In the semi-light cone gauge $g_{ab}=e^{2\phi}\delta_{ab}$, $\bar{\gamma}^+\theta=0$, we evaluate the $\phi$-dependent effective action for the pp-wave Green-Schwarz (GS) superstring in both harmonic and group coordinates. When we compute…

It is shown that non-commutative spaces, which are quotients of associative algebras by ideals generated by non-linear relations of a particular type, admit extremely simple formulae for deformed or star products. Explicit construction of…

The concept of (global) gauge symmetry breaking plays an important role in many areas of physics. Since the corresponding symmetry is a gauge symmetry, its breaking is actually gauge-dependent. Thus, it is possible to design gauges which…

The translation group T(2), contained in Wigner's little group for massless particles, is shown to generate gauge transformations in the Kalb-Ramond theory, exactly as happens in Maxwell case. For the topologically massive ($B\wedge$F)…

The damped nonlinear wave equation, also known as the nonlinear telegraph equation, is studied within the framework of semigroups and eigenfunction approximation. The linear semigroup assumes a central role: it is bounded on the domain of…

We give extensions of results on nonnegative matrix semigroups which deduce finiteness or boundedness of such semigroups from the corresponding local properties, e.g., from finiteness or boundedness of values of certain linear functionals…

We study the constraint structure of Fierz -Pauli action in both flat and curved space in the framework of Hamiltonian formalism. We observe an abrupt change in the constraint algebra and the characteristics of the constraints when the mass…

Gauge symmetries generally appear as a constraint algebra, under which one expects all physical states to be singlets. However, quantum anomalies and boundary conditions introduce central charges and change this picture, thus causing…
