The noncovariant gauges in 3-form theories
We study the 3-form gauge theory in the context of generalized BRST formulation. We construct the finite field-dependent BRST (FFBRST) symmetry for such a theory.

Gauge-invariant fields and flow equations for Yang-Mills theories [PDF]
We discuss the concept of gauge-invariant fields for non-abelian gauge theories. Infinitesimal fluctuations around a given gauge field can be split into physical and gauge fluctuations. Starting from some reference field the gauge-invariant fields are constructed by consecutively adding physical fluctuations.

Symmetry Transformation Parameters as Classical Dynamic Variables in the Gauge Theory
A modification of the gauge theory is proposed, in which the set of generalized coordinates is supplemented with symmetry transformation parameters, and the condition is additionally imposed on the latter, which ensures the classical character of their ...

Charge completeness and the massless charge lattice in F-theory models of supergravity
We prove that, for every 6D supergravity theory that has an F-theory description, the property of charge completeness for the connected component of the gauge group (meaning that all charges in the corresponding charge lattice are realized by massive or ...

This study examines the demographic dynamics of two seabird populations on Tromelin Island, 15 years after the eradication of brown rats. The results indicate that these populations are in good health and are expected to continue growing until breeding sites are saturated in about a century.

A simplicial gauge theory [PDF]
We provide an action for gauge theories discretized on simplicial meshes, inspired by lattice gauge theory and finite element methods. The action is discretely gauge invariant and we give a proof of consistency. A discrete Noether's theorem that can be applied to our setting, is also proved.

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Gauge Model With Massive Gravitons [PDF]
Gauge theory of gravity is formulated based on principle of local gauge invariance. Because the model has strict local gravitational gauge symmetry, gauge theory of gravity is a perturbatively renormalizable quantum model. However, in the original model, all gauge gravitons are massless.

For the Yang–Mills theory coupled to a single scalar field in the fundamental representation of the gauge group, we present a gauge-independent description of the Brout–Englert–Higgs mechanism by which massless gauge bosons acquire their mass.
