Abstract We argue that symmetry and unification can emerge as byproducts of certain physical constraints on dynamical scattering. To accomplish this we parameterize a general Lorentz invariant, four-dimensional theory of massless and massive scalar fields coupled via arbitrary local interactions. Assuming perturbative unitarity and an Adler zero condition, we prove that any finite spectrum of massless and massive modes will necessarily unify at high energies into multiplets of a linearized symmetry. Certain generators of the symmetry algebra can be derived explicitly in terms of the spectrum and three-particle interactions. Furthermore, our assumptions imply that the coset space is symmetric.

Abstract Variational and divergence symmetries are studied in this paper for the whole class of linear and nonlinear equations of maximal symmetry, and the associated first integrals are given in explicit form. All the main results obtained are formulated as theorems or conjectures for equations of a general order. A discussion of the existence of variational symmetries with respect to a different Lagrangian, which turns out to be the most common and most readily available one, is also carried out. This leads to significantly different results when compared with the former case of the transformed Lagrangian. The latter analysis also gives rise to more general results concerning the variational symmetry algebra of any linear or nonlinear equations.

We show that an interesting open asymmetric XXZ quantum spin chain with surface fields is invariant under a two-parametric generalization of the slq(2) algebra with deformation parameters being a particular root of unit.

We study the symmetry of two-dimensional gravity by choosing a generic gauge. A local action is derived which reduces to either the Liouville action or the Polyakov one by reducing to the conformal or light-cone gauge respectively. The theory is also solved classically. We show that an SL (2, R) covariant gauge can be chosen so that the two-dimensional gravity has a manifest Virasoro and the sl (2, R)-current symmetry discovered by Polyakov. The symmetry algebra of the light-cone gauge is shown to be isomorphic to the Beltrami algebra. By using the contour integration method we construct the BRST charge QB corresponding to this algebra following the Fradkin-Vilkovisky procedure and prove that the nilpotence of QB requires c=28 and α0=1. We give a simple interpretation of these conditions.

We demonstrate the realization of supersymmetric quantum mechanics in the first-order Dirac oscillator equation by associating with it another Dirac equation, which may be considered as its supersymmetric partner. We show that both the particle and the antiparticle spectra, resulting from these two equations after filling the negative-energy states and redefining the physical ground state, indeed present the degeneracy pattern characteristic of unbroken supersymmetry. In addition, we analyze in detail two algebraic structures, each partially explaining the degeneracies present in the Dirac oscillator supersymmetric spectrum in the non-relativistic limit. One of them is the spectrum-generating superalgebra osp(2/2, ℝ), first proposed by Balantekin. We prove that it is closely connected with the supersymmetric structure of the first-order Dirac oscillator equation as its odd generators are the two sets of supercharges respectively associated with the equation and its supersymmetric partner. The other algebraic structure is an so(4)⊕so(3, 1) algebra, which is an extension of a similar algebra first considered by Moshinsky and Quesne. We prove that it is the symmetry algebra of the Dirac oscillator supersymmetric Hamiltonian. Some possible relations between the spectrum-generating superalgebra, the symmetry algebra, and their respective subalgebras are also suggested.
