Asymptotic symmetry and conservation laws in 2d Poincar\'e gauge theory of gravity
The structure of the asymptotic symmetry in the Poincar\'e gauge theory of
gravity in 2d is clarified by using the Hamiltonian formalism. The improved
form of the generator of the asymptotic symmetry is found for very general
asymptotic behaviour of phase space variables, and the related conserved
quantities are explicitly constructed.Comment: 22 pages, Plain Te
Lagrangian generators of the Poincare gauge symmetries
We have systematically computed the generators of the symmetries arising in
Poincare gauge theory formulation of gravity, both in 2+1 and 3+1 dimensions.
This was done using a completely Lagrangian approach. The results are expected
to be valid in any dimensions, as seen through lifting the results of the 2+1
dimensional example into the 3+1 dimensional one.Comment: Latex2e, 15 pages, 1 figure; (v2) Appendix containing discussion on

Monopoles near the Planck Scale and Unification
Considering our (3+1)-dimensional space-time as, in some way, discrete or l
attice with a parameter , where is the Planck length,
we have investigated the additional contributions of lattice artifact monopoles
to beta-functions of the renormalisation group equations for the running fine
structure constants (i=1,2,3 correspond to the U(1), SU(2) and
SU(3) gauge groups of the Standard Model) in the Family Replicated Gauge Group
Model (FRGGM) which is an extension of the Standard Model at high energies. It
was shown that monopoles have times smaller magnetic charge in FRGGM
than in SM ( is the number of families in FRGGM). We have estimated al
so the enlargement of a number of fermions in FRGGM leading to the suppression
of the asymptotic freedom in the non-Abelian theory. We have shown that, in
contrast to the case of AntiGUT when the FRGGM undergoes the breakdown at
GeV, we have the possibility of unification if the
FRGGM-breakdown occurs at GeV. By numerical calculations we
obtained an example of the unification of all gauge interactions (including
gravity) at the scale GeV. We discussed the
possibility of or (SUSY or not SUSY) unifications.Comment: 49 pages, 7 figure
Phase transition in the Higgs model of scalar dyons
In the present paper we investigate the phase transition
"Coulomb--confinement" in the Higgs model of abelian scalar dyons -- particles
having both, electric and magnetic , charges. It is shown that by dual
symmetry this theory is equivalent to scalar fields with the effective squared
electric charge e^{*2}=e^2+g^2. But the Dirac relation distinguishes the
electric and magnetic charges of dyons. The following phase transition
couplings are obtained in the one--loop approximation:
\alpha_{crit}=e^2_{crit}/4\pi\approx 0.19,
\tilde\alpha_{crit}=g^2_{crit}/4\pi\approx 1.29 and \alpha^*_{crit}\approx
1.48.Comment: 16 pages, 2 figure
The Effect of Addition of Lucerne Biomass and NPN Substances on Quality of Grape Pomace Silage
Grape pomace (GP) of white varieties without stalks was ensiled by the method of single factor trial in the two treatments: in the first treatment, with the addition of lucerne biomass (L) of the last cut, which was harvested at the stage of forming pods with equal shares in the weight ratio and in the second with the addition of Benural S (B) in the amount of 1%. Chemical analyses were conducted on GP and L to determine the suitability of biomass for silage and to determine the chemical composition and nutritional value and the process of lactic acid fermentation. It has been found that the biomass of GP had 2 times higher concentration of water-soluble carbohydrates (WSC 140.5:69.4 gkg-1DM) relative to L, and a lower buffer capacity (BC) what makes it 10 times more favourable for ensiling (ratio WSC/BC 13.1 : 1.3). GP, as compared to L, had lower contents of CP, CF, and a lower nutritional value expressed in NEL and NEM units and a higher content of crude fat. Silage with the equal share of GP + L compared to silage with GP + B had a slightly lower CF and significantly less crude fat and ash, especially Ca. More favourable ratio Ca : P (2.93 : 1) was established in silage GP + L compared to 10.1:1 silage GP + B. Silages GP + L in the fermentation process were scored/rated one class higher according to the DLG and Zelter assessment methods, compared to the silages GP + B.
The aim of the study was to investigate the possibility of ensiling grape pomace with equal proportion of biomass of lucerne and added NPN substances and to determine the detailed chemical composition, nutritive value and silage quality on the basis of the process of lactic acid fermentation
Phase transition in gauge theories, monopoles and the Multiple Point Principle
This review is devoted to the Multiple Point Principle (MPP), according to
which several vacuum states with the same energy density exist in Nature. The
MPP is implemented to the Standard Model (SM), Family replicated gauge group
model (FRGGM) and phase transitions in gauge theories with/without monopoles.
Lattice gauge theories are reviewed. The lattice results for critical coupling
constants are compared with those of the Higgs Monopole Model (HMM), in which
the lattice artifact monopoles are replaced by the point-like Higgs scalar
particles with a magnetic charge. Considering our (3+1)-dimensional space-time
as discrete, for example, as a lattice with a parameter a=\lambda_P, equal to
the Planck length, we have investigated the additional contributions of
monopoles to beta-functions of renormalization group equations in the FRGGM
extended beyond the SM at high (the Planck scale) energies. We have reviewed
that, in contrast to the Anti-grand unified theory (AGUT), there exists a
possibility of unification of all gauge interactions (including gravity) near
the Planck scale due to monopoles. The unifications [SU(5)]^3 and [SO(10)]^3 at
the GUT-scale \sim 10^{18} GeV are briefly discussed.Comment: 100 pages, 25 figures, typos correcte
