Continuous generalized symmetries in three dimensions

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We present a class of three-dimensional quantum field theories whose ordinary global symmetries mix with higher-form symmetries to form a continuous 2-group.

Generalized symmetries and Noether’s theorem in QFT

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We show that generalized symmetries cannot be charged under a continuous global symmetry having a Noether current. Further, only non-compact generalized symmetries can be charged under a continuous global symmetry.

Carroll/fracton particles and their correspondence

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We exploit the close relationship between the Carroll and fracton/dipole algebras, together with the method of coadjoint orbits, to define and classify classical Carroll and fracton particles.

Emerging internal symmetries from effective spacetimes

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2017
Can global internal and spacetime symmetries be connected without supersymmetry? To answer this question, we investigate Minkowski spacetimes with d space-like extra dimensions and point out under which general conditions external symmetries induce ...

Quantum Carroll/fracton particles

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We classify and relate unitary irreducible representations (UIRs) of the Carroll and dipole groups, i.e., we define elementary quantum Carroll and fracton particles and establish a correspondence between them.

Global symmetries in the antifield formalism [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 1996
In this paper, two things are done. (i) First, it is shown that any global symmetry of a gauge-invariant theory can be extended to the ghosts and the antifields so as to leave invariant the solution of the master-equation (before gauge fixing). (ii) Second, it is proved that the incorporation of the rigid symmetries to the solution of the master ...

Dyson’s classification and real division superalgebras

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
It is well-known that unitary irreducible representations of groups can be usefully classified in a 3-fold classification scheme: Real, Complex, Quaternionic.

Duality and global symmetries [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 1998
This is a general introduction to duality in field theories. The existence and breaking of global symmetries is used as a guideline to systematically prove duality between different field theories. Systems discussed include abelian and non-abelian T-duality in string theory, abelian and nonabelian bosonization, and duality for massless and massive ...

Colourful Poincaré symmetry, gravity and particle actions

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We construct a generalisation of the three-dimensional Poincaré algebra that also includes a colour symmetry factor. This algebra can be used to define coloured Poincaré gravity in three space-time dimensions as well as to study generalisations of ...

Representations of sl(2,?) in category O and master symmetries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We show that the indecomposable sl(2,?)-modules in the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand category O naturally arise for homogeneous integrable nonlinear evolution systems. We then develop a new approach called the O scheme to construct master symmetries for such
