No U (1)'electric-magnetic'duality in Einstein gravity

R Monteiro - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract We revisit the question of whether classical general relativity obeys, beyond the
linearised order, an analogue of the global U (1) electric-magnetic duality of Maxwell theory …

Nonlocal Lagrangian fields: Noether's theorem and Hamiltonian formalism

C Heredia, J Llosa - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
This article aims to study nonlocal Lagrangians with an infinite number of degrees of
freedom. We obtain an extension of Noether's theorem and Noether's identities for such …

Infinite-derivative linearized gravity in convolutional form

C Heredia, I Kolář, J Llosa, FJM Torralba… - … and Quantum Gravity, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
This article aims to transform the infinite-order Lagrangian density for ghost-free infinite-
derivative linearized gravity into non-local form. To achieve it, we use the theory of …

Nonlocal Lagrangian formalism

C Heredia - arXiv preprint arXiv:2304.10562, 2023 - arxiv.org
This thesis aims to study nonlocal Lagrangians with a finite and an infinite number of
degrees of freedom. We obtain an extension of Noether's theorem and Noether's identities …

Topological defects in nonlocal field theories

L Buoninfante, Y Miyashita, M Yamaguchi - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 - Springer
A bstract In this paper we study for the first time topological defects in the context of nonlocal
field theories in which Lagrangians contain infinite-order differential operators. In particular …
