We show that the nonlinear Born-Infeld field equations supplemented by the “dynamical condition” (certain boundary condition for the field along the particle’s trajectory) define perfectly deterministic theory, i.e. particle’s trajectory is determined without any equations of motion. It is a first step towards constructing the consistent theory of point particles interacting with nonlinear elec...

Using direct simulations, weakly nonlinear theory and nonlinear mean-field theory, it is shown that the quenched velocity field of a saturated nonlinear dynamo can itself act as a kinematic dynamo. The flow is driven by a forcing function that would produce a Roberts flow in the absence of a magnetic field. This result confirms an analogous finding by F. Cattaneo & S. M. Tobias (arXiv:0809.1801...

We construct a gauge theory based on general nonlinear Lie algebras. The generic form of ‘dilaton’ gravity is derived from nonlinear Poincaré algebra, which exhibits a gauge-theoretical origin of the non-geometric scalar field in two-dimensional gravitation theory.

We study some basic quantum confinement effects through investigation a deformed harmonic oscillator algebra. We show that spatial confinement effects on a quantum harmonic oscillator can be represented by a deformation function within the framework of nonlinear coherent states theory. Using the deformed algebra, we construct a quantum field theory in confined space. In particular, we find that...
