Something Anomalies can tell about SM and Gravity
Loriano Bonora, Stefano G. Giaccari
This ia a review/research paper on anomalies applied to a bottom-up approach to standard model and gravity. It is divided in two parts. The first consists in a review proper of ano…
On the particle content of MHS theory
Maro Cvitan, Predrag Dominis Prester, Stefano Giaccari +2
The Moyal-Higher-Spin (MHS) formalism, involving fields dependent on spacetime and auxiliary coordinates, is an approach to studying higher spin (HS)-like models. To determine the…
Running of the Number of Degrees of Freedom in Quantum Conformal Gravity
Stefano Giaccari, Petr Jizba, Jaroslav Kňap +1
We study how the number of degrees of freedom in Weyl conformal gravity runs with the energy scale from the UV fixed point. To this end we employ two approaches. First, we utilize…
Rotations and boosts of Hermite functions
Maro Cvitan, Predrag Dominis Prester, Stefano Giaccari +2
We provide transformation matrices for arbitrary Lorentz transformations of multidimensional Hermite functions in any dimension. These serve as a valuable tool for analyzing spacet…
Topological defects in K3 sigma models
Roberta Angius, Stefano Giaccari, Roberto Volpato
We consider the topological defect lines commuting with the spectral flow and the superconformal symmetry in two dimensional non-linear sigma models on K3. By s…
A fresh view on string orbifolds
Stefano Giaccari, Roberto Volpato
In quantum field theory, an orbifold is a way to obtain a new theory from an old one by gauging a finite global symmetry. This definition of orbifold does not make sense for quantu…
