Symmetry structure of special geometries [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Using techniques from supergravity and dimensional reduction, we study the full isometry algebra of K\"ahler and quaternionic manifolds with special geometry.

Similar or Different? Configurations of Authenticity Across Museum Types

open access: yesCurator: The Museum Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Authenticity is traditionally regarded as playing a crucial role in museums, science centers, and memorials. However, despite this fact, authenticity has very different meanings in different (institutional) settings. This complicates shared communications across museum practices.

Cosmological Observations in a Modified Theory of Gravity (MOG)

open access: yesGalaxies, 2013
Our Modified Gravity Theory (MOG) is a gravitational theory without exotic dark matter, based on an action principle. MOG has been used successfully tomodel astrophysical phenomena, such as galaxy rotation curves, galaxy cluster masses and lensing.

Perturbation Theory in Nonstandard Cosmology

open access: yesAdvances in Astrophysics, 2019
We explore a nonstandard model for the Universe in which we take a vacuum solution of Einstein’s equation as background and introduce visible matter and radiation as perturbations. The perturbation theory is greatly simplified by using the mapping on the inner Schwarzschild solution.

Aspects of compactifications and black holes in four-dimensional supergravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the 20th century, theoretical physics has seen the development of General Relativity and the Standard Model of elementary particles. These theories describe, with great precision, gravity and all known matter, respectively. However, it is not possible

Entropy and correlators in quantum field theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It is well known that loss of information about a system, for some observer, leads to an increase in entropy as perceived by this observer. We use this to propose an alternative approach to decoherence in quantum field theory in which the machinery of ...

Marxism and Decolonizing Praxis: From Decolonial Misinterpretations to Marxist Contributions

open access: yesDevelopment and Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article intervenes in postcolonial and decolonial critiques that portray Karl Marx and Marxism as intrinsically Eurocentric and inattentive to race, colonialism and non‐European revolutionary agency. It argues that such critiques often rely on selective, historically limited interpretations that overlook Marx's later writings, in which he

braneworld cosmology and holography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This thesis is devoted to studying two important aspects of braneworld physics: their cosmology and their holography. We examine the Einstein equations induced on a general (n - 2)-brane of arbitrary tension, embedded in some n-dimensional bulk.

The effective action of warped M-theory reductions with higher derivative terms — part I [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
M-theory accessed via eleven-dimensional supergravity admits globally consistent warped solutions with eight-dimensional compact spaces if background fluxes and higher derivative terms are considered.
