Newtonian Counterparts of Spin 2 Massless Discontinuities

S. Deser, Bayram Tekin

Massive spin 2 theories in flat or cosmological () backgrounds are subject to discontinuities as the masses tend to zero. We show and explain physically why their Newtonian…

Fluctuations of a (Tensionless) Brane World

Bayram Tekin

We compute the quantum fluctuations of a 3-brane with tension, energy density and stiffness. As a result of the fluctuations there are induced forces between massive objects living…

Higher Dimensional Operators or Large Extra Dimensions?

Bayram Tekin

We deform gravity with higher curvature terms in four dimensions and argue that the non-relativistic limit is of the same form as the non-relativistic limit of the theories with la…

Phase Transition in Compact QED(3) and the Josephson Junction

Vakif K. Onemli, Murat Tas, Bayram Tekin

We study the finite temperature phase transition in 2+1 dimensional compact QED and its dual theory: Josephson junction. Duality of these theories at zero temperature was establish…

Deconfinement at N>2: SU(N) Georgi-Glashow model in 2+1 dimensions

Ian. I Kogan, Alex Kovner, Bayram Tekin

We analyse the deconfining phase transition in the SU(N) Georgi-Glashow model in 2+1 dimensions. We show that the phase transition is second order for any N, and the universality c…

Instanton molecules at high temperature - the Georgi-Glashow model and beyond

Ian I. Kogan, Alex Kovner, Bayram Tekin

We show that correlators of some local operators in gauge theories are sensitive to the presence of the instantons even at high temperature where the latter are bound into instanto…
