Gravitational Anomaly and Hydrodynamics

Karl Landsteiner, Eugenio Megias, Luis Melgar +1

We study the anomalous induced current of a vortex in a relativistic fluid via the chiral vortical effect, which is analogous to the anomalous current induced by a magnetic field v…

On Asymptotic Darkness in Hořava-Lifshitz Gravity

Emilio Elizalde, Pedro J. Silva

Hořava-Lifshitz gravity is shown to exhibit a peculiar behavior, when scattering amplitudes are considered. At low energies it seems to classicalize i.e. the effective size of the…

Supersymmetric Aether

Oriol Pujolas, Sergey Sibiryakov

It has been suggested by Groot Nibbelink and Pospelov that Lorentz invariance can be an emergent symmetry of low-energy physics provided the theory enjoys a non-relativistic versio…

Gravitational cubic interactions for a simple mixed-symmetry gauge field in AdS and flat backgrounds

Nicolas Boulanger, E. D. Skvortsov, Yu. M. Zinoviev

Cubic interactions between the simplest mixed-symmetry gauge field and gravity are constructed in anti-de Sitter (AdS) and flat backgrounds. Nonabelian cubic interactions are obtai…

Pure Geometric Branes and Mass Hierarchy

Ke Yang, Yuan Zhong, Shao-Wen Wei +1

We consider a toy model with flat thin branes embedded in a 5-dimensional Weyl integrable manifold, where the geometric Weyl scalar provides the material that constitute the brane…

Gravitational cubic interactions for a massive mixed symmetry gauge field

Yu. M. Zinoviev

In a recent paper arXiv:1107.1872 cubic gravitational interactions for a massless mixed symmetry field in AdS space have been constructed. In the current paper we extend these resu…

Flux Periodicities and Quantum Hair on Holographic Superconductors

Marc Montull, Oriol Pujolas, Alberto Salvio +1

Superconductors in a cylindrical geometry respond periodically to a cylinder-threading magnetic flux, with the period changing from hc/2e to hc/e depending on whether the Aharonov-…

The Imperfect Fluid behind Kinetic Gravity Braiding

Oriol Pujolas, Ignacy Sawicki, Alexander Vikman

We present a standard hydrodynamical description for non-canonical scalar field theories with kinetic gravity braiding. In particular, this picture applies to the simplest galileon…

Asymptotic behavior in the scalar field theory

V. E. Rochev

An asymptotic solution of the system of Schwinger-Dyson equations for four-dimensional Euclidean scalar field theory with interaction is obtained. For $λ>λ_{cr}…

Renormalization group analysis of cosmological constraint on the mass of Higgs scalar

V. V. Kiselev, S. A. Timofeev

The Higgs boson of Standard Model, minimally coupled to the gravitation, is not able to produce the inflation of early Universe if its mass exceeds the threshold value, which is eq…
