Test Particle Motion in the Born-Infeld Black Hole

In this work we review the classification of geodesics of massive test particles in the gravitational background of the black hole solutions of Einstein-Born-Infeld spacetime. Even though some features are quite similar to those of Reissner-Nordström spacetime there are also important differences, particularly those related to the effective potential governing the geodesic motion. Explicit solutions involving Weierstrass functions are given for a pair of specific scenarios.

Non-commutative Einstein-Proca Space-time

In this work we present a deformed model of Einstein-Proca space-time based on the replacement of point-like sources by non-commutative smeared distributions. We discuss the solutions to the set of non-commutative Einstein-Proca equations thus obtained, with emphasis on the issue of singularities and horizons.

Gravitational potential of a point mass in a brane world

In brane world models, combining the extra dimensional field modes with the standard four dimensional ones yields interesting physical consequences that have been proved from high energy physics to cosmology. Even some low energy phenomena have been considered along these lines to set bounds on the brane model parameters. In this work we extend to the gravitational realm a previous result which gave finite electromagnetic and scalar potentials and self energies for a source looking pointlike to an observer sitting in a 4D Minkowski subspace of the single brane of a Randall-Sundrum spacetime including compact dimensions. We calculate here the gravitational field for the same type of source by solving the linearized Einstein equations. Remarkably, it turns out to be also non singular. Moreover, we use gravitational experimental results of the Cavendish type and the Parameterized Post Newtonian (PPN) coefficients, to look for admissible values of the brane model parameters. The anti de Sitter radius hereby obtained is concordant with previous results based on Lamb shift in hydrogen. However, the resulting PPN parameters lie outside the acceptable value domain.

Brane world regularization of point particle classical self-energy

Physical effects in brane worlds models emerge by the incorporation of field modes coming from extra dimensions with the usual four dimensional ones. Such effects can be tested with well established experiments to set bounds on the parameters of the brane models. In this work we extend a previous result which gave finite electromagnetic potentials and self energies for a source looking pointlike to an observer sitting in a 4D Minkowski subspace of a single brane of a Randall-Sundrum spacetime including compact dimensions, and along which the source stretches uniformly. We show that a scalar particle produces a nonsingular static potential, possess a finite self-energy and that technically its analysis is very similar to the electrostatic case. As for the latter, we use the deviations from the Coulomb potential to set bounds on the anti de Sitter radius of the brane model on the basis of two experiments, namely, one of the Cavendish type and other being the scattering of electrons by Helium atoms. We found these are less stringent than others previously obtained using the Lamb shift in Hydrogen.

Weyl Invariant p-brane and Dp-brane actions

Conformal invariant new forms of $p$-brane and D$p$-brane actions are proposed. The field content of these actions are: an induced metric, gauge fields, an auxiliary metric and an auxiliary scalar field that implements the Weyl invariance. This scalar field transforms with a conformal weight that depends on the brane dimension. The proposed actions are Weyl invariant in any dimension and the elimination of the auxiliary metric and the scalar field reproduces the Nambu-Goto action for $p$-branes and the Born-Infeld action for D$p$-branes. As a consequence of the fact that in the $p$-brane case, the action is quadratic in $\partial_0 X$, we develop a complete construction for the associated canonical formalism, solving the problem in previous formulations of conformal $p$-brane actions where the Hamiltonian can not be constructed. We obtain the algebra of constraints and identify the generator of the Weyl symmetry. In the construction of the corresponding supersymmetric generalization of this conformal $p$-brane action we show that the associated $κ$-symmetry is consistent with the conformal invariance. In the D$p$-brane case, the actions are quadratic in the gauge fields. These actions can be used to construct new conformal couplings in any dimension $p$ to the auxiliary scalar field now promoted as a dynamical variable.

Hamiltonian Solution of the Schwinger Model with Compact U(1)

The complete exact solution of the Schwinger model with compact gauge group U(1), in the Hamiltonian approach, is presented . The compactification is imposed by demanding that the only surviving true electromagnetic degree of freedom has angular character. Not surprinsingly, this topological condition defines a version of the Schwinger model which is different from the standard one, where $c$ takes values on the line . The main consequences are: the spectra of the zero modes is not degenerated and does not correspond to the equally spaced harmonic oscillator, both the electric charge and a modified gauge invariant chiral charge are conserved (nevertheless, the axial-current anomaly is still present) and, finally, there is no need to introduce a $θ$-vacuum. A comparison with the results of the standard Schwinger model is pointed out along the text.
