The 2d Gross-Neveu Model for Pseudovector Fermions and Tachyonic Mass Generation
V. K. Oikonomou
Recent observations in the OPERA experiment suggest that the neutrino could propagate with speed that is superluminal. Based on early theoretical work on tachyonic fermions we shal…
Witten Index and Superconducting Strings
V. K. Oikonomou
The Yukawa interaction sector of superstring inspired models that give superconducting strings, can be described in terms of a supersymmetric quantum mechanics algebra. We relate t…
Slab Bag Fermionic Casimir effect, Chiral Boundaries and Vector Boson - Majorana Fermion Pistons
V. K. Oikonomou, N. D. Tracas
In this article we consider the Casimir energy and force of massless Majorana fermions and vector bosons between parallel plates. The vector bosons satisfy perfect electric conduct…
Kaluza-Klein Pistons with non-Commutative Extra Dimensions
V. K. Oikonomou
We calculate the scalar Casimir energy and Casimir force for a Kaluza-Klein piston setup in which the extra dimensional space contains a non-commutative 2-sphere,…
On Casimir Pistons
V. K. Oikonomou
In this paper we study the Casimir force for a piston configuration in with one dimension being slightly curved and the other two infinite. We work for two different cases wi…
Inverse and Dynamical Supersymmetry Breaking in
V. K. Oikonomou
In this paper we study the influence of hard supersymmetry breaking terms in a N=1, supersymmetric model, in spacetime topology. It is found that for some int…
