Field-Dependent Metrics and Higher-Form Symmetries in Duality-Invariant Theories of Non-Linear Electrodynamics

Christian Ferko, Cian Luke Martin

We prove that a theory of non-linear electrodynamics has equations of motion which are equivalent to those of the Maxwell theory in curved spacetime, but with the usual metric…

Interacting Chiral Form Field Theories and -like Flows in Six and Higher Dimensions

Christian Ferko, Sergei M. Kuzenko, Kurt Lechner +2

In this paper we initiate the study of six-dimensional non-linear chiral two-form gauge theories as deformations of free chiral two-form gauge theories driven by stress-tensor $T\o…

Quantum vacuum effects in non-relativistic quantum field theory

Matthew Edmonds, Antonino Flachi, Marco Pasini

Nonlinearities in the dispersion relations associated with different interactions designs, boundary conditions and the existence of a physical cut-off scale can alter the quantum v…

On curvature-squared invariants of minimal five-dimensional supergravity from superspace

Gregory Gold, Jessica Hutomo, Saurish Khandelwal +1

We elaborate on the off-shell superspace construction of curvature-squared invariants in minimal five-dimensional supergravity. This is described by the standard Weyl multiplet of…
