Elliptic Thermal Correlation Functions and Modular Forms in a Globally Conformal Invariant QFT
Global conformal invariance (GCI) of quantum field theory (QFT) in two and higher space-time dimensions implies the Huygens' principle, and hence, rationality of correlation functions of observable…

Conformally Invariant Equations for Graviton
Recent astrophysical data indicate that our universe might currently be in a de Sitter (dS) phase. The importance of dS space has been primarily ignited by the study of the inflationary model of the…
Unit Invariance as a Unifying Principle of Physics
A basic principle of physics is the freedom to locally choose any unit system when describing physical quantities. Its implementation amounts to treating Weyl invariance as a fundamental symmetry of…
symODE2: Symbolic analysis of second-order ordinary differential equations with polynomial coefficients
An open-source package for symbolic analysis of second-order ordinary differential equations with polynomial coefficients is proposed. The approach is mainly based on the singularity structure of the…

Singularity in a (2+1)-dimensional AdS scalar black hole
We study the spacetime singularity in a (2+1)-dimensional AdS scalar black hole with circular symmetry using a quasihomogeneous model. We show that this is a spacelike, scalar curvature,…
Exact solution for (2+1)-dimensional critical collapse
We find an exact solution in closed form for the critical collapse of a scalar field with a cosmological constant in 2+1 dimensions. This solution agrees with the numerical simulations done by…

Dilations and Interaction
As a consequence of the geometrical features of dilations massless particles do not interact in a local, dilationally invariant quantum theory. This result also holds in models in which dilations are…
