Nontrivial constitutive laws and unified structures in constrained BF theory

Priidik Gallagher

Does a nontrivial gravitational excitation require a modified internal gauge theory constitutive law? As there is no canonical mapping between differential forms valued in distinct…

Canonical aspects of pregeometric vector-based first order gauge theory

Priidik Gallagher

A recently proposed pregeometric auxiliary vector mediated gauge theory is studied in its canonical domain, by performing the Legendre transform on a curved background and by consi…

Consistent first order action functional for gauge theories

Priidik Gallagher, Tomi S. Koivisto, Luca Marzola +2

A novel first order action principle has been proposed as the possible foundation for a more fundamental theory of General Relativity and the Standard Model. It is shown in this ar…

Pregeometric First Order Yang-Mills Theory

Priidik Gallagher, Tomi Koivisto, Luca Marzola

The standard description of particles and fundamental interactions is crucially based on a regular metric background. In the language of differential geometry, this dependence is e…

The and the CDM as integration constants

Priidik Gallagher, Tomi Koivisto

Notoriously, the two main problems of the standard CDM model of cosmology are the cosmological constant and the cold dark matter, CDM. This essay shows that both the and…

Gauge dependence of the gauge boson projector

E. M. Priidik Gallagher, Stefan Groote, Maria Naeem

The propagator of a gauge boson, like the massless photon or the massive vector bosons and of the electroweak theory, can be derived in two different ways, namely via G…
