Constraint structure and Hamiltonian treatment of Nappi-Witten model
We investigate the Hamiltonian analysis of Nappi-Witten model (WZW action based on non semi simple gauge group) and find a time dependent non-commutativity by canonical quantization. Our procedure is based on constraint analysis of the model in two parts. A first class analysis is used for gauge fixing the original model following by a second class analysis in which the boundary condition are treated as Dirac constraints. We find the reduced phase space by imposing our second class constraints on the variables in an extended Fourier space.

The reduced phase space of an open string in the background B-field
The problem of an open string in background B-field is discussed. Using the discretized model in details we show that the system is influenced by an infinite number of second class constraints. We interpret the allowed Fourier modes as the coordinates of the reduced phase space. This enables us to compute the Dirac brackets more easily. We prove that the coordinates of the string are non-commutative at the boundaries. We argue that in order to find the Dirac bracket or commutator algebra of the physical variables, one should not expand the fields in terms of the solutions of the equations of motion. Instead, one should impose a set of constraints in suitable coordinates.

The Decay of singlet scalar dark matter to unparticle and photon
We consider the unparticle physics introduced by Georgi and show that if the standard model is extended to include a singlet scalar as a dark matter candidate, there is a channel which leads to its decay to photon and unparticle. We calculate the decay rate for this new channel and find a lower bound on unparticle physics scale by demanding the stability of this candidate of the dark matter.

Noncommutative Geometry and Classical Orbits of Particles in a Central Force Potential
We investigate the effect of the noncommutative geometry on the classical orbits of particles in a central force potential The relation is implemented through the modified commutation relations [xi,xj] = iθij. Comparison with observations places severe constraints on the value of the noncommutativity parameter.

Corrected Hawking Tunneling Radiation in the Higher Dimensional Reissner-Nordström Black Hole
Based on the generalized uncertainty principle, in which the quantum gravitational effects are properly taken in to account, the corrected Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the higher dimensional Reissner-Nordström black hole, up to the square order of Planck length, has been calculated. Using the corrected entropy, the black hole radiation probability has been calculated in the tunneling formalism, which is corrected up to the same order of the Planck length and a generalized quantum tunneling through the event horizon of the black hole is obtained.

COVARIANT TWO-POINT FUNCTION FOR MASSLESS SPIN-2 FIELD IN DE SITTER SPACE
The linearized gravitational field equation in de Sitter (dS) four-dimensional space is gauge invariant under some special gauge transformations. It is also gauge invariant in ambient space notations in which the field equation is written in terms of the Casimir operators of dS group. In this paper the field equation is solved in terms of a gauge-fixed value (i.e. in the minimal case). It is shown that the solution can be written as the multiplication of a generalized symmetric rank-2 polarization tensor and a massless minimally coupled scalar field in ambient space notations. The two-point function is calculated in ambient space notations, which is dS-invariant and free of any divergences. This two-point function has been expressed in terms of dS intrinsic coordinates, from its ambient space counterpart, which is clearly dS-invariant and free of any divergences again.

Thermodynamics of rotating charged black branes in third order Lovelock gravity and the counterterm method
We generalize the quasilocal definition of the stress energy tensor of Einstein gravity to the case of third order Lovelock gravity, by introducing the surface terms that make the action well-defined. We also introduce the boundary counterterm that removes the divergences of the action and the conserved quantities of the solutions of third order Lovelock gravity with zero curvature boundary at constant $t$ and $r$. Then, we compute the charged rotating solutions of this theory in $n+1$ dimensions with a complete set of allowed rotation parameters. These charged rotating solutions present black hole solutions with two inner and outer event horizons, extreme black holes or naked singularities provided the parameters of the solutions are chosen suitable. We compute temperature, entropy, charge, electric potential, mass and angular momenta of the black hole solutions, and find that these quantities satisfy the first law of thermodynamics. We find a Smarr-type formula and perform a stability analysis by computing the heat capacity and the determinant of Hessian matrix of mass with respect to its thermodynamic variables in both the canonical and the grand-canonical ensembles, and show that the system is thermally stable. This is commensurate with the fact that there is no Hawking-Page phase transition for black objects with zero curvature horizon.

Magnetic branes in (n+1)-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton gravity
We construct two new classes of spacetimes generated by spinning and traveling magnetic sources in (n+1)-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton gravity with Liouville-type potential. These solutions are neither asymptotically flat nor (A)dS. The first class of solutions which yields a (n+1)-dimensional spacetime with a longitudinal magnetic field and k rotation parameters have no curvature singularity and no horizons, but have a conic geometry. We show that when one or more of the rotation parameters are nonzero, the spinning branes have a net electric charge that is proportional to the magnitude of the rotation parameters. The second class of solutions yields a static spacetime with an angular magnetic field and has no curvature singularity, no horizons, and no conical singularity. Although one may add linear momentum to the second class of solutions by a boost transformation, one does not obtain a new solution. We find that the net electric charge of these traveling branes with one or more nonzero boost parameters is proportional to the magnitude of the velocity of the branes. We also use the counterterm method and calculate the conserved quantities of the solutions.

Charged rotating black branes in anti–de Sitter Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity
We present a new class of charged rotating solutions in the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity with a negative cosmological constant. These solutions may be interpreted as black brane solutions with two inner and outer event horizons or an extreme black brane depending on the value of the mass parameter m. We also find that the Killing vectors are the null generators of the event horizon. The physical properties of the brane such as the temperature, the angular velocity, the entropy, the electric charge and potential are computed. We also compute the action and the Gibbs potential as a function of temperature and angular velocity for the uncharged solutions, and compute the angular momentum and the mass of the black brane through the use of the Gibbs potential. We show that these thermodynamic quantities satisfy the first law of thermodynamics. We also perform a local stability analysis of the asymptotically anti\char21{}de Sitter (AdS) uncharged rotating black brane in various dimensions and show that they are locally stable for the whole phase space both in the canonical and grand-canonical ensemble. We find that the thermodynamic properties of Gauss-Bonnet rotating black branes are completely the same as those without the Gauss-Bonnet term, although the two solutions are quite different.
