We study bubble universe collisions in the ultrarelativistic limit with the new feature of allowing for nontrivial curvature in field space. We establish a simple geometrical interpretation of such collisions in terms of a double family of field profiles whose tangent vector fields stand in mutual parallel transport. This provides a generalization of the well-known flat field space limit of the free passage approximation. We investigate the limits of this approximation and illustrate our analytical results with a numerical simulations.

We consider, in more details than it was done previously, the effective low-energy behavior in the quantum theory of a light scalar field coupled to another scalar with much larger mass. The main target of our work is an IR decoupling of heavy degree
s of freedom, including in the diagrams with mixed light-heavy contents in the loops. It is shown that the one-loop diagrams with mixed internal lines produce an IR non-local contributions which are exactly the same as the ones in the theory of the light scalar alone, with the effective self-interaction which can be obtained by the functional integration of the heavy scalar, almost neglecting its kinetic term. The same effect takes place in curved space, regardless of a larger amount of non-localities which show up in the effective model.
In this paper we review some aspects of relativistic particles mechanics in the case of a non-trivial geometry of momentum space. We start with showing how the curved momentum space arises in the theory of gravity in 2+1 dimensions coupled to particl
es, when (topological) degrees of freedom of gravity are solved for. We argue that there might exist a similar topological phase of quantum gravity in 3+1 dimensions. Then we characterize the main properties of the theory of interacting particles with curved momentum space and the symmetries of the action. We discuss the spacetime picture and the emergence of the principle of relative locality, according to which locality of events is not absolute but becomes observer dependent, in the controllable, relativistic way. We conclude with the detailed review of the most studied kappa-Poincare framework, which corresponds to the de Sitter momentum space.
The Snyder-de Sitter (SdS) model which is invariant under the action of the de Sitter group, is an example of a noncommutative spacetime with three fundamental scales. In this paper, we considered the massless Dirac fermions in graphene layer in a cu
rved Snyder spacetime which are subjected to an external magnetic field. We employed representation in the momentum space to derive the energy eigenvalues and the eigenfunctions of the system. Then, we used the deduced energy function obtaining the internal energy, heat capacity, and entropy functions. We investigated the role of the fundamental scales on these thermal quantities of the graphene layer. We found that the effect of the SdS model on the thermodynamic properties is significant.
We show that in some kink-antikink (KAK) collisions sphalerons, i.e., unstable static solutions - rather than the asymptotic free soliton states - can be the source of the internal degrees of freedom (normal modes) which trigger the resonance phenome
non responsible for the fractal structure in the final state formation.
The $k$-essence theory is a prototypical class of scalar-field models that already gives rich phenomenology and has been a target of extensive studies in cosmology. General forms of shift-symmetric $k$-essence are known to suffer from formation of ca
ustics in a planar-symmetric configuration, with the only exceptions of canonical and DBI-/cuscuton-type kinetic terms. With this in mind, we seek for multi-field caustic-free completions of a general class of shift-symmetric $k$-essence models in this paper. The field space in UV theories is naturally curved, and we introduce the scale of the curvature as the parameter that controls the mass of the heavy field(s) that would be integrated out in the process of EFT reduction. By numerical methods, we demonstrate that the introduction of a heavy field indeed resolves the caustic problem by invoking its motion near the would-be caustic formation. We further study the cosmological application of the model. By expanding the equations with respect to the curvature scale of the field space, we prove that the EFT reduction is successfully done by taking the limit of infinite curvature, both for the background and perturbation, with gravity included. The next leading-order computation is consistently conducted and shows that the EFT reduction breaks down in the limit of vanishing sound speed of the perturbation.
