Abstract:
In analogy with the electromagnetic theory, we resolve the Riemann curvature into electric and magnetic parts and consider the analogous duality transformation which keeps the Einstein action for vacuum invariant. It is remarkable that the duality symmetry of the action also leads to the vacuum field equation without cosmological constant. Further invariance of the vacuum equation and the action under the gravito-electric duality require gravitational constant to change sign.

Abstract:
I propose that self-duality in quantum phase-space provides the criteria for the selection of the quantum gravity vacuum. The evidence for this assertion arises from two independent considerations. The first is the phenomenological success of the free fermionic heterotic-string models, which are constructed in the vicinity of the self-dual point under T-duality. The relation between the free fermionic models and the underlying Z2×Z2 toroidal orbifolds is discussed. Recent analysis revealed that the Z2×Z2 free fermionic orbifolds utilize an asymmetric shift in the reduction to three generations

Abstract:
By resolving the gravitational field into electric and magnetic parts, we define an electrogravity duality transformation and discover an interesting property of the field. Under the duality transformation, a vacuum/flat space–time maps into the original space–time with a topological defect of global monopole/texture. The electrogravity-duality is thus a topological defect generating process. It turns out that all black hole solutions possess dual solutions that imbibe a global monopole.

Quantum field theory (QFT) and general relativity (GR) are pillars of modern physics, each supported by extensive experimental evidence. QFT operates within Lorentzian spacetime, while GR ensures local Lorentzian geometry. Despite their successes, these frameworks diverge significantly in their estimations of vacuum energy density, leading to the cosmological constant problem—a discrepancy where QFT estimates exceed observed values by 123 orders of magnitude. This paper addresses this inconsistency by tracing the cooling evolution of the universe’s gauge symmetries—from SU(3)×SU(2)×U(1) at hig

This is a quantum effect, and is a consequence of an anomaly related to the classical invariance under electric-magnetic duality rotations in Maxwell theory.

Abstract:
We have obtained the general solution of the Einstein vacuum equation for the axially symmetric stationary metric in which both the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for particle motion and the Klein - Gordon equation are separable. It can be interpreted to describe the gravitational field of a rotating dyon, a particle endowed with both gravoelectric (mass) and gravomagnetic (NUT parameter) charges. Further, there also exists a duality relation between the two charges and the radial and the polar angle coordinates which keeps the solution invariant. The solution can however be transformed into the kno

Abstract:
We show how classical Markov processes can be obtained from quantum Lévy processes. It is shown that quantum Lévy processes are quantum Markov processes, and sufficient conditions for restrictions to subalgebras to remain quantum Markov processes are given. A classical Markov process (which has the same time-ordered moments as the quantum process in the vacuum state) exists whenever we can restrict to a commutative subalgebra without losing the quantum Markov property.8 Several examples, including the Azéma martingale, with explicit calculations are presented. In particular, the action of the

As a generalization of DHR analysis, the superselection sectors are studied in the absence of the spectrum condition for the reference representation. Considering a net of local observables in 4-dimensional Minkowski spacetime, we associate to a set of representations, that are local excitations of a reference representation fulfilling Haag duality, a symmetric tensor C*-category [Formula: see text] of bimodules of the net, with subobjects and direct sums. The existence of conjugates is studied introducing an equivalent formulation of the theory in terms of the presheaf associated with the obs

Abstract:
A well-known mystery in quantum mechanics is wave–particle duality: Is an electron a point mass or a physical wave? What is the physical meaning of its wave function? About a hundred years ago, there was a famous debate between Bohr and Einstein on this topic. Their question is still open today. This paper reviews a new theoretical framework to address this problem. Here, it is hypothesized that both photons and electrons are quantized excitation waves of the vacuum, the physical properties of which can be modeled based on the Maxwell theory.

Abstract We first make more precise a recent “Hamiltonian” reformulation of the Hohm-Zwiebach approach to the tree-level, O(d,d)-invariant string cosmology equations at all orders in the α' expansion, and recall how it allows to give a simple characterization of a large class of cosmological scenarios connecting, through a non-singular bounce, two duality-related perturbative solutions at early and late times. We then discuss the effects of adding to the action a non-perturbative, O(d,d)-breaking, dilaton potential V(ϕ). The resulting cosmological solutions, assumed to approach at early times

Abstract:
The D-dimensional superstring theory is known to be invariant under the duality symmetry b ↔ α'/b, where [Formula: see text] is the constant radius of the N-dimensional internal space and α′ is the slope parameter, the (M+1)-dimensional physical space-time being flat, where D= M+N+1. It is shown, starting from the D-dimensional, vacuum Einstein theory, that this symmetry can be generalized to a curved space-time, with β(t)=–α(t) and [Formula: see text], where t is comoving time, but it will only be an isometry of the (conformally transformed) physical space if this is characterized by a single

We test the gauge/gravity duality between the N = 6 mass-deformed ABJM theory with Uk(N) × U-k(N) gauge symmetry and the 11-dimensional supergravity on LLM geometries with SO(4)=ℤk × SO(4)=ℤk isometry. Our analysis is based on the evaluation of vacuum expectation values of chiral primary operators from the supersymmetric vacua of mass-deformed ABJM theory and from the implementation of Kaluza-Klein (KK) holography to the LLM geometries. We focus on the chiral primary operator (CPO) with conformal dimension Δ = 1. The non-vanishing vacuum expectation value (vev) implies the breaking of conforma

Abstract:
The magnetic-field–tuned superconductor-to-insulator transition was studied in a hybrid system of superconducting indium islands, deposited on an indium oxide (InOx) thin film, which exhibits global superconductivity at low magnetic fields. Vacuum annealing was used to tune the conductivity of the InOx film, thereby tuning the inergrain coupling and the nature of the transition. The hybrid system exhibits a “giant” magnetoresistance above the magnetic-field–tuned superconductor-to-insulator transition (H-SIT), with critical behavior similar to that of uniform InOx films but at much lower magne

We investigate an effective torsion curvature in a second-order formalism underlying a two-form world-volume dynamics in a D5-brane. In particular, we consider the two form in presence of a background (open string) metric in a U(1) gauge theory. Interestingly the formalism may be viewed via a noncoincident pair of [Formula: see text]-brane with a global Nereu–Schwarz (NS) two form on an anti-brane and a local two form on a brane. The energy–momentum tensor is computed in the six-dimensional (6D) conformal field theory (CFT). It is shown to source a metric fluctuation on a vacuum created pair o

The background to the article is the classic and quantum understandings of the vacuum and the use of imaginary numbers in quantum models. The purpose of the article is to outline the possible understanding of the vacuum as imaginary space always coupled with the real space in the complex space of complex numbers. This understanding relates to the duality real-potential, collapsed–collapsible, and superimpositions of waves-phenomena as in quantum mechanics. The incomputability of the imaginary parts may represent the physical meaning of the permanent potential pending nature of the vacuum. The
