Against Field Interpretations of Quantum Field Theory [PDF]
I examine some problems standing in the way of a successful ``field interpretation'' of quantum field theory. The most popular extant proposal depends on the Hilbert space of ``wavefunctionals.'' But since wavefunctional space is unitarily equivalent to ...

We present a complete mathematical formulation of a unified field theory based on the postulate of a superdense, ultra-rigid 4D continuum — the Ether (Element 0). Elementary particles are described as stable toroidal vortices (Unitary Magnets) characterized by the Hopf invariant H in Z, a topological integer quantifying the linking number of phase ...

Aspects of Objectivity in Quantum Mechanics [PDF]
The purpose of the paper is to explore different aspects of the covariance of (mostly) non-relativistic quantum mechanics. First, doubts are expressed concerning the claim that gauge fields can be 'generated' by way of imposition of (local) gauge ...

This paper proposes a cosmic physical generation framework based on categorical duality and topological quantum field theory, aiming to address the immensityof the model space in the string landscape and the resulting crisis of predictability.The core claim of the framework is that the gauge structure, matter content, andlow-energy effective theory of ...

On breathers in affine toda theories [PDF]
Oscillating solitonic solutions, the breathers, of affine Toda theory are studied. These breather solutions are constructed from two solitons of the same mass with velocity opposite of each other; by analytically continuing its velocity or rapidity to a ...

Effects of spin symmetry breaking in topological insulators [PDF]
Topological insulators are one of the most thoroughly investigated systems in condensed matter physics over the last years. In these systems, a prominent role is inevitably taken by time-reversal symmetry, which leads to Kramers theorem and symmetry ...

Gauge Theories and Holisms [PDF]
Those looking for holism in contemporary physics have focused their attention primarily on quantum entanglement. But some gauge theories arguably also manifest the related phenomenon of nonseparability.

Localization and Dualities in Three Dimensional Superconformal Field Theories [PDF]
In this thesis we apply the technique of localization to three-dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories. We consider both theories which are exactly superconformal, and those which are believed to flow to nontrivial superconformal fixed points, for

Reconsidering Born's Postulate and Collapse Theory [PDF]
We investigate the possibility that the amplitude of quantum wave can have a deeper physical meaning other than the probabilistic interpretation base on Born’s postulate.

Aspects of Topological String Theory [PDF]
Two aspects of the topological string and its applications are considered in this thesis. Firstly, non-perturbative contributions to the OSV conjecture relating four-dimensional extremal black holes and the closed topological string partition function ...
