Equivalence of two solutions of physical massive gravity
Haresh Raval, Krishnanand Kr. Mishra, Bhabani Prasad Mandal
We study some aspects of linearized gravity as gauge theory, with massive deformation. Recently it has been shown that there are two distinct solutions, which represent physical ma…

Deconfinement to Confinement as PT phase transition
Haresh Raval, Bhabani Prasad Mandal
We consider SU(N) QCD in a new quadratic gauge which highlights certain characteristic of the theory in the non-perturbative sector. By considering natural hermiticity property of…

Absence of the Gribov ambiguity in a quadratic gauge
Haresh Raval
The Gribov ambiguity exists in various gauges except algebraic gauges. However, algebraic gauges are not Lorentz invariant, which is their fundamental flaw. In addition, they are n…
