Charge Asymmetry in the Brane World and Formation of Charged Black Holes

Herman J. Mosquera Cuesta, André Penna-Firme, Abdel Pérez-Lorenzana

In theories with an infinite extra dimension, free particles localized on the brane can leak out to the extra space. We argue that if there were color confinement in the bulk, elec…

The Spherical Landau Problem

Cesar Castilho, Andre Penna-Firme

The magnetization for electrons on a two-dimensional sphere, under a spherically symmetrical normal magnetic field has been studied in the large field limit. This allows us to use…

Conformal symmetry, anomaly and effective action for metric-scalar gravity with torsion

J. A. Helayel-Neto, A. Penna-Firme, I. L. Shapiro

We consider some aspects of conformal symmetry in a metric-scalar-torsion system. It is shown that, for some special choice of the action, torsion acts as a compensating field and…

(2,0)-Super-Yang-Mills Coupled to Non-Linear Sigma-Model

M. S. Goes-Negrao, M. R. Negrao, A. B. Penna-Firme

Considering a class of (2,0)-super-Yang-Mills multiplets that accommodate a pair of independent gauge potentials in connection with a single symmetry group, we present here their c…

Anti-symmetric Tensor Matter Fields and Non-Linear Sigma-Model

M. G. Negrao, A. Penna-Firme, J. A. Helayel-Neto

The equivalence between rank-2 anti-symmetric tensor fields, considered as gauge potentials, and torsionless non-linear -models suggests us to study the possibility of coupling…
