Integrability and BRST invariance from BF topological theory

We consider the BRST invariant effective action of the non-abelian BF topological theory in $1+1$ dimensions with gauge group $Sl(2,\mathbb{R})$. By considering different gauge fixing conditions, the zero-curvature field equation give rise to several well known integrable equations. We prove that each integrable equation together with the associated ghost field evolution equation, obtained from the BF theory, is a BRST invariant system with an infinite sequence of BRST invariant conserved quantities. We construct explicitly the systems and the BRST transformation laws for the KdV sequence (including the KdV, mKdV and CKdV equations) and Harry Dym integrable equation.

Braneworld-Klein-Gordon system in the framework of gravitational decoupling

We analyze the effective field equations of the Randall-Sundrum braneworld coupled with a Klein-Gordon scalar field through the minimal geometric deformation decoupling method (MGD-decoupling). We introduce two different ways to apply the MGD-decoupling method to obtain new solutions for this enlarged system. We also compare the behavior of the new solutions with those obtained directly from the Randall-Sumdrum braneworld without coupling to the scalar field.

Braneworld Gravity under gravitational decoupling

The main objective of this work is to study in some detail the Randall-Sundrum gravity under the gravitational decoupling through the minimal geometric deformation approach (MGD-decoupling). We show a family of new black hole solutions as well as new exact interior solutions for self-gravitating stellar systems and we discuss the corresponding matching conditions.

Hairy black holes by gravitational decoupling

Black holes with hair represented by generic fields surrounding the central source of the vacuum Schwarzschild metric are examined under the minimal set of requirements consisting of i) the existence of a well defined event horizon and ii) the strong or dominant energy condition for the hair outside the horizon. We develop our analysis by means of the gravitational decoupling approach. We find that trivial deformations of the seed Schwarzschild vacuum preserve the energy conditions and provide a new mechanism to evade the no-hair theorem based on a primary hair associated with the charge generating these transformations. Under the above conditions i) and ii), this charge consistently increases the entropy from the minimum value given by the Schwarzschild geometry. As a direct application, we find a non-trivial extension of the Reissner-Nordstrom black hole showing a surprisingly simple horizon. Finally, the non-linear electrodynamics generating this new solution is fully specified.

On the hamiltonian formulation of an octonionic integrable extension for the Korteweg-de Vries equation

We present in this work the hamiltonian formulation of an octonionic extension for the Korteweg-de Vries equation. The formulation takes into account the non commmutativity and non associativity of the implicit algebra which defines the equation. We also analize the Poisson structure of the hamiltonian formulation. We propose a parametric master Lagrangian which contains the two hamiltonian structures of the integrable octonionic equation.

Isotropization and change of complexity by gravitational decoupling

We employ the gravitational decoupling approach for static and spherically symmetric systems to develop a simple and powerful method in order to a) continuously isotropize any anisotropic solution of the Einstein field equations, and b) generate new solutions for self-gravitating distributions with the same or vanishing complexity factor. A few working examples are given for illustrative purposes.

A causal Schwarzschild-de Sitter interior solution by gravitational decoupling

We employ the minimal geometric deformation approach to gravitational decoupling (MGD- decoupling) in order to build an exact anisotropic version of the Schwarzschild interior solution in a space-time with cosmological constant. Contrary to the well-known Schwarzschild interior, the matter density in the new solution is not uniform and possesses subluminal sound speed. It therefore satisfies all standard physical requirements for a candidate astrophysical object.

Entanglement of boundary conditions giving rise to spontaneous symmetry breaking in quantum mechanics

We study spontaneous symmetry breaking in one dimensional quantum mechanical problems in terms of two-point boundary problems which lead to singular potentials containing Dirac delta functions and its derivatives. We search for broken-symmetry bound states. For a particular entanglement of boundary conditions, we show the existence of a ground state, giving rise to a spontaneous symmetry breaking, stable under the phenomenon of decoherence generated from external fluctuations. We discuss the model in the context of the "chiral" broken-symmetry states of molecules like $NH_3$.

Multisolitonic solutions from a Bäcklund transformation for a parametric coupled Korteweg-de Vries system

We introduce a parametric coupled KdV system which contains, for particular values of the parameter, the complex extension of the KdV equation and one of the Hirota-Satsuma integrable systems. We obtain a generalized Gardner transformation and from the associated $\varepsilon$- deformed system we get the infinite sequence of conserved quantities for the parametric coupled system. We also obtain a Bäcklund transformation for the system. We prove the associated permutability theorem corresponding to such transformation and we generate new multi-solitonic and periodic solutions for the system depending on several parameters. We show that for a wide range of the parameters the solutions obtained from the permutability theorem are regular solutions. Finally we found new multisolitonic solutions propagating on a non-trivial regular static background.

Full hamiltonian structure for a parametric coupled Korteweg-de Vries system

We obtain the full hamiltonian structure for a parametric coupled KdV system. The coupled system arises from four different real basic lagrangians. The associated hamiltonian functionals and the corresponding Poisson structures follow from the geometry of a constrained phase space by using the Dirac approach for constrained systems. The overall algebraic structure for the system is given in terms of two pencils of Poisson structures with associated hamiltonians depending on the parameter of the Poisson pencils. The algebraic construction we present admits the most general space of observables related to the coupled system.

Poisson structure and stability analysis of a coupled system arising from the supersymmetric breaking of Super KdV

The Poisson structure of a coupled system arising from a supersymmetric breaking of N=1 Super KdV equations is obtained. The supersymmetric breaking is implemented by introducing a Clifford algebra instead of a Grassmann algebra. The Poisson structure follows from the Dirac brackets obtained by the constraint analysis of the hamiltonian of the system. The coupled system has multisolitonic solutions. We show that the one soliton solutions are Liapunov stable.

Hamiltonian structure of an operator valued extension of Super KdV equations

An extension of the super Korteweg-de Vries integrable system in terms of operator valued functions is obtained. In particular the extension contains the $N=1$ Super KdV and coupled systems with functions valued on a symplectic space. We introduce a Miura transformation for the extended system and obtain its hamiltonian structure. We also obtain an extended Gardner transformation which allows to find an infinite number of conserved quantities of the extended system.

Consistent Horava gravity without extra modes and equivalent to general relativity at the linearized level

We consider a Horava theory that has a consistent structure of constraints and propagates two physical degrees of freedom. The Lagrangian includes the terms of Blas, Pujolas and Sibiryakov. The theory can be obtained from the general Horava's formulation by setting lambda = 1/3. This value of lambda is protected in the quantum formulation of the theory by the presence of a constraint. The theory has two second-class constraints that are absent for other values of lambda. They remove the extra scalar mode. There is no strong-coupling problem in this theory since there is no extra mode. We perform explicit computations on a model that put together a z = 1 term and the IR effective action. We also show that the lowest-order perturbative version of the IR effective theory has a dynamics identical to the one of linearized general relativity. Therefore, this theory is smoothly recovered at the deepest IR without discontinuities in the physical degrees of freedom.

The Hamiltonian structure of a coupled system derived from a supersymmetric breaking of Super KdV equations

A supersymmetric breaking procedure for $N=1$ Super KdV, using a Clifford algebra, is implemented. Dirac's method for the determination of constraints is used to obtain the Hamiltonian structure, via a Lagrangian, for the resulting solitonic system of coupled Korteweg-de Vries type system. It is shown that the Hamiltonian obtained by this procedure is bounded from below and in that sense represents a model which is physically admissible.

Supersymmetry breaking, conserved charges and stability in N=1 Super KdV

We analyse the non-abelian algebra and the supersymmetric cohomology associated to the local and non-local conserved charges of N=1 SKdV under Poisson brackets. We then consider the breaking of the supersymmetry and obtain an integrable model in terms of Clifford algebra valued fields. We discuss the remaining conserved charges of the new system and the stability of the solitonic solutions.

On the non-abelian superalgebra spanned by the conserved quantities of N=1 supersymmetric Korteweg-de Vries equation

We obtain an infinite sequence of bosonic non-local conserved quantities for the N=1 supersymmetric Korteweg-de Vries equation. It is generated from a bosonic non-local conserved quantity of Super Gardner equation. In distinction to the already known one with odd parity and dimension 1/2, it has even parity and dimension 1. It fits exactly in the supersymmetric cohomology in the space of conserved quantities that we also introduce here. Using results from this cohomology we obtain the Poisson bracket of several non-local conserved quantities, including the already known odd ones and the new even ones. The algebra closes in terms of polynomials of local and non-local conserved quantities. We prove that the bosonic non-local conserved quantities cannot be expressed as functions of the already known local and non-local conserved quantities of Super KdV equation.

Infinite sequence of new conserved quantities for N=1 SKdV and the supersymmetric cohomology

An infinite sequence of new non-local conserved quantities for N=1 Super KdV (SKdV) equation is obtained. The sequence is constructed, via a Gardner trasformation, from a new conserved quantity of the Super Gardner equation. The SUSY generator defines a nilpotent operation from the space of all conserved quantities into itself. On the ring of $C_\downarrow^\infty$ superfields the local conserved quantities are closed but not exact. However on the ring of $C_{NL,1}^\infty$ superfields, an extension of the $C_\downarrow^\infty$ ring, they become exact and equal to the SUSY transformed of the subset of odd non-local conserved quantities of the appropriate weight. The remaining odd no-local ones generate closed geometrical objects which become exact when the ring is extended to the $C_{NL,2}^\infty$ superfields and equal to the SUSY transformed of the new even non-local conserved quantities we have obtained. These ones fit exactly in the SUSY cohomology of the already known conserved quantities.
