Yang-Mills equations are formally linearizable
It is proved, in the framework of a recent theory of non-linear group representations elaborated by the authors, that the non-linear Yang-Mills equations are formally linearizable: there exists a formal non-linear operator which intertwins the non-linear Yang-Mills equations with their free (linear) part.

The cauchy problem for non-linear Klein-Gordon equations
We consider in ℝn+1,n≧2, the non-linear Klein-Gordon equation. We prove for such an equation that there is a neighbourhood of zero in a Hilbert space of initial conditions for which the Cauchy problem has global solutions and on which there is asymptotic completeness. The inverse of the wave operator linearizes the non-linear equation. If, moreover, the equation is manifestly Poincaré covariant then the non-linear representation of the Poincaré Lie algebra, associated with the non-linear Klein-Gordon equation is integrated to a non-linear representation of the Poincaré group on an invariant neighbourhood of zero in the Hilbert space. This representation is linearized by the inverse of the wave operator. The Hilbert space is, in both cases, the closure of the space of the differentiable vectors for the linear representation of the Poincaré group, associated with the Klein-Gordon equation, with respect to a norm defined by the representation of the enveloping algebra.

On global solutions of the Maxwell-Dirac equations
We prove, for the Maxwell-Dirac equations in 1+3 dimensions, that modified wave operators exist on a domain of small entire test functions of exponential type and that the Cauchy problem, inR+×R3, has a unique solution for each initial condition (att=0) which is in the image of the wave operator. The modification of the wave operator, which eliminates infrared divergences, is given by approximate solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation, for a relativistic electron in an electromagnetic potential. The modified wave operator linearizes the Maxwell-Dirac equations to their linear part.

A wave operator for a non-linear Klein-Gordon equation
We prove the existence of a set of initial data to which correspond solutions of the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with a polynomial nonlinear term, which converge asymptotically, when t→+∞, to solutions of the linear Klein-Gordon equation.

Field Theory on Curved Space Time and the TCP Theorem
A generalization is given to the Wightman axioms of field theory which permits to treat gravitational field as a Wightman field. This generalization permits to deduce TCP theorem for the gravitational field. The note ends with some critical remarks concerning the physical interpretation of the TCP theorem.

WORLD VOLUME REALIZATION OF AUTOMORPHISMS
The relation among spacetime supersymmetry algebras and the world volume approach to string theory is reviewed. The realization of some of the automorphism transformations of these superalgebras on the world volume theory is discussed. We distinguish among linear realizations and non-local ones. The consistency of the latter with duality in M/string theory is checked.

General relativity in a (2+1)-dimensional space-time: An electrically charged solution
AbstractWe have found a static electrically charged solution to the Einstein-Maxwell equations in a (2+1)-dimensional space-time. Studies of general relativity in lower dimensional space-times provide many new insights and a simplified arena for doing quantum mechanics. In (2+1)-dimensional space-time, solutions to the vacuum field equations are locally flat (point masses are conical sigularities), but when electromagnetic fields are presentTab≠O and the solutions are curved. For a static chargeQ we find
$$\mathop E\limits^ \to = Q\hat r/r$$
 andds2= −(kQ2/2π)In(rc/r)dt2 + (2π/kQ2[ln(rc/r)]−1dr2 +r2dφ2 whererc is a constant. There is a horizon atr =rc like the inner horizon of the Reisner-Nordström solution. We have produced a Kruskal extension of this metric which shows two static regions (I and III) withr rc. A spacelike slice across regions I and III shows a football-shaped universe with chargeQ at one end and −Q at the other. Slices in the dynamical regions (II and IV) show a cylindrical universe that is expanding in region II and contracting in region IV. Electromagnetic solutions to the Einstein-Maxwell field equations in lower dimensional space-times can be used to provide new insights into Kaluza-Klein theories. In terms of the Kaluza-Klein theory, for example, electromagnetic radiation in a (2+1)-dimensional space-time is really gravitational radiation in the associated (3+1)-dimensional Kaluza-Klein space-time. According to Kaluza Klein theory the absence of gravitational radiation in (2+1)-dimensional space-time implies (correctly) the absence of electromagnetic radiation in (1+1)-dimensional space-time.

Null orbifolds in AdS, Time Dependence and Holography
We study M/D-branes in a null-brane background. By taking a near horizon limit, one is left with cosmological models in the corresponding Poincarpatches. To deal with their usual horizons, we either extend these models to global AdS or remain in the Poincarpatch and apply a T-duality transformation whenever the efiective radius of the compact dimension associated with the null-brane probes distances smaller than the string scale. The flrst scenario gives rise to null orbifolds in AdS spaces, which are described in detail. Their conformal boundaries are singular. The second has a dual gauge theory description in terms of Super Yang-Mills in the null-brane background. The latter is a good candidate for a non-perturbative deflnition of string theory in a time- dependent background.

Gödel-type universes and the Landau problem
We point out a close relation between a family of Godel-type solutions of 3+1 general relativity and the Landau problem in and ; in particular, the classical geodesics correspond to Larmor orbits in the Landau problem. We discuss the extent of this relation, by analysing the solutions of the Klein–Gordon equation in these backgrounds. For the case, this relation was independently noticed in hep-th/0306148. Guided by the analogy with the Landau problem, we speculate on the possible holographic description of a single chronologically safe region.

Emergent IR dual 2d CFTs in charged AdS5 black holes
We study the possible dynamical emergence of IR conformal invariance describing the low energy excitations of near-extremal R-charged global AdS5 black holes. We find interesting behavior especially when we tune parameters in such a way that the relevant extremal black holes have classically vanishing horizon area, i.e. no classical ground-state entropy, and when we combine the low energy limit with a large N limit of the dual gauge theory. We consider both near-BPS and non-BPS regimes and their near horizon limits, emphasize the differences between the local AdS3 throats emerging in either case, and discuss potential dual IR 2d CFTs for each case. We compare our results with the predictions obtained from the Kerr/CFT correspondence, and obtain a natural quantization for the central charge of the near-BPS emergent IR CFT which we interpret in terms of the open strings stretched between giant gravitons.
