This work instigates a study of non-local field mappings within the Lorentz- and CPT-violating Standard-Model Extension (SME). An example of such a mapping is constructed explicitly, and the conditions for the existence of its inverse are investigated. It is demonstrated that the associated field redefinition can remove b-type Lorentz violation from free SME fermions in certain situations. These results are employed to obtain explicit expressions for the corresponding Lorentz-breaking momentum-space eigenspinors and their orthogonality relations.

A technique is presented for finding the classical Lagrange function corresponding to a given dispersion relation. This allows us to study the classical analogue of the Standard-Model Extension. Developments are discussed.
An algebraic method is devised to look for non-local symmetries of the pseudopotential type of nonlinear field equations. The method is based on the use of an infinite-dimensional subalgebra of the prolongation algebra $L$ associated with the equations under consideration. Our approach, which is applied by way of example to the Dym and the Korteweg-de Vries equations, allows us to obtain a general formula for the infinitesimal operator of the non-local symmetries expressed in terms of elements of $L$. The method could be exploited to investigate the symmetry properties of other nonlinear field equations possessing nontrivial prolongations.
We investigate the entropy bound for local quantum field theory in this paper. Both the bosonic and fermionic fields confined to an asymptotically flat spacetime are examined. By imposing the non-gravitational collapse condition, we find both of them are limited by the same entropy bound $A^{3/4}$, where $A$ is the boundary area of the region where the quantum fields are contained in. The gap between this entropy bound and the holographic entropy has been verified.
The consequences of on-shell supersymmetry are studied for scattering amplitudes with massive particles in four dimensions. Using the massive version of the spinor helicity formalism the supersymmetry transformations relating products of on-shell states are derived directly from the on-shell supersymmetry algebra for any massive representation. Solutions to the resulting Ward identities can be constructed as functions on the on-shell superspaces that are obtained from the coherent state method. In simple cases it is shown that these superspaces allow one to construct explicitly supersymmetric scattering amplitudes. Supersymmetric on-shell recursion relations for tree-level superamplitudes with massive particles are introduced. As examples, simple supersymmetric amplitudes are constructed in SQCD, the Abelian Higgs model, the Coulomb branch of N=4 super Yang-Mills, QCD with an effective Higgs-gluon coupling and for massive vector boson currents.
There has been considerable recent interest in solving non-local equations of motion which contain an infinite number of derivatives. Here, focusing on inflation, we review how the problem can be reformulated as the question of finding solutions to a diffusion-like partial differential equation with non-linear boundary conditions. Moreover, we show that this diffusion-like equation, and hence the non-local equations, can be solved as an initial value problem once non-trivial initial data consistent with the boundary conditions is found. This is done by considering linearised equations about any field value, for which we show that obtaining solutions using the diffusion-like equation is equivalent to solving a local but infinite field cosmology. These local fields are shown to consist of at most two canonically normalized or phantom fields together with an infinite number of quintoms. We then numerically solve the diffusion-like equation for the full non-linear case for two string field theory motivated models.
