Conformal Newton–Hooke symmetry of Pais–Uhlenbeck oscillator
(North-Holland, 2014)
It is demonstrated that the Pais–Uhlenbeck oscillator in arbitrary dimension enjoys the l -conformal Newton–Hooke symmetry provided frequencies of oscillation form the arithmetic sequence ωk=(2k−1)ω1, where k=1,…,n, and ...
On the triviality of higher-derivative theories
(North-Holland, 2012)
The higher-derivative theories with degenerate frequencies exhibit BRST symmetry [V.O. Rivelles, Phys. Lett. B 577 (2003) 147]. In the present Letter meaning of BRST-invariance condition is analyzed. The BRST symmetry is ...
Chiral fermions, massless particles and Poincare covariance
(Elsevier, 2015-05-19)
The coadjoint orbit method is applied to the construction of Hamiltonian dynamics of massless particles of arbitrary helicity. The unusual transformation properties of canonical variables are interpreted in terms of nonlinear ...
The covariance of chiral fermions theory
(Springer Nature, 2019)
The quasiclassical theory of massless chiral fermions is considered. The effective action is derived using time-dependent variational principle which provides a clear interpretation of relevant canonical variables. As a ...
Hamiltonian formalisms and symmetries of the Pais–Uhlenbeck oscillator
(Elsevier B.V., 2014)
The study of the symmetry of Pais–Uhlenbeck oscillator initiated in Andrzejewski et al. (2014) [24] is continued with special emphasis put on the Hamiltonian formalism. The symmetry generators within the original Pais and ...
Generalized Niederer’s transformation for quantum Pais–Uhlenbeck oscillator
(Elsevier B.V., 2015)
We extend, to the quantum domain, the results obtained in [Nucl. Phys. B 885 (2014) 150] and [Phys. Lett. B 738 (2014) 405] concerning Niederer’s transformation for the Pais–Uhlenbeck oscillator. Namely, the quantum ...
Conformal Newton–Hooke algebras, Niederer's transformation and Pais–Uhlenbeck oscillator
(Elsevier B.V., 2014)
Dynamical systems invariant under the action of the l-conformal Newton–Hooke algebras are constructed by the method of nonlinear realizations. The relevant first order Lagrangians together with the corresponding Hamiltonians ...
