We have mooted a new charged scalar field theory using a doublet of the Galileon scalar field instead of the usual Klein Gordon real scalar fields. Our model for the charged scalar field have a few remarkable properties like Poincare invariance , Abelian gauge symmetry and shift symmetries. The existence of two independent gauge symmetries is a welcome news for fracton physics.Whereas phase rotation in $phi$ space leads to the conservation of electric charge , the additional symmetries correspond to the conservation of a scalar charge and a vector charge. The system is shown to resemble matter in the fracton phase. Consequently, the results in this letter have immense possibilities in fracton physics.

The equivalence principle postulates a frame. This implies globally special and locally general relativity. It is proposed here that spacetime emerges from the gauge potential of translations, whilst the Lorenz symmetry is gauged into the interaction
s of the particle sector. This is, though more intuitive, the opposite to the standard formulation of gravity, and seems to lead to conceptual and technical improvements of the theory.
We demonstrate several explicit duality mappings between elasticity of two-dimensional crystals and fracton tensor gauge theories, expanding on recent works by two of the present authors. We begin by dualizing the quantum elasticity theory of an ordi
nary commensurate crystal, which maps directly onto a fracton tensor gauge theory, in a natural tensor analogue of the conventional particle-vortex duality transformation of a superfluid. The transverse and longitudinal phonons of a crystal map onto the two gapless gauge modes of the tensor gauge theory, while the topological lattice defects map onto the gauge charges, with disclinations corresponding to isolated fractons and dislocations corresponding to dipoles of fractons. We use the classical limit of this duality to make new predictions for the finite-temperature phase diagram of fracton models, and provide a simpler derivation of the Halperin-Nelson-Young theory of thermal melting of two-dimensional solids. We extend this duality to incorporate bosonic statistics, which is necessary for a description of the quantum melting transitions. We thereby derive a hybrid vector-tensor gauge theory which describes a supersolid phase, hosting both crystalline and superfluid orders. The structure of this gauge theory puts constraints on the quantum phase diagram of bosons, and also leads to the concept of symmetry enriched fracton order. We formulate the extension of these dualities to systems breaking time-reversal symmetry. We also discuss the broader implications of these dualities, such as a possible connection between fracton phases and the study of interacting topological crystalline insulators.
We present an identity satisfied by the kinematic factors of diagrams describing the tree amplitudes of massless gauge theories. This identity is a kinematic analog of the Jacobi identity for color factors. Using this we find new relations between co
lor-ordered partial amplitudes. We discuss applications to multi-loop calculations via the unitarity method. In particular, we illustrate the relations between different contributions to a two-loop four-point QCD amplitude. We also use this identity to reorganize gravity tree amplitudes diagram by diagram, offering new insight into the structure of the KLT relations between gauge and gravity tree amplitudes. This can be used to obtain novel relations similar to the KLT ones. We expect this to be helpful in higher-loop studies of the ultraviolet properties of gravity theories.
We study a gauge/gravity model for the thermodynamics of a gauge theory with one running coupling. The gravity side contains an ansatz for the metric and a scalar field, on the field theory side one starts by giving an ansatz for the beta function de
scribing the scale dependence of the coupling. The model is based on relating the scale to the extra dimensional coordinate and the beta function to the gravity fields, thereby also determining the scalar field potential. We study three different forms of beta functions of increasing complexity and give semianalytic solutions describing first order or continuous transitions.
Modified gravity theories with a screening mechanism have acquired much interest recently in the quest for a viable alternative to General Relativity on cosmological scales, given their intrinsic property of being able to pass Solar System scale test
s and, at the same time, to possibly drive universe acceleration on much larger scales. Here, we explore the possibility that the same screening mechanism, or its breaking at a certain astrophysical scale, might be responsible of those gravitational effects which, in the context of general relativity, are generally attributed to Dark Matter. We consider a recently proposed extension of covariant Galileon models in the so-called beyond Horndeski scenario, where a breaking of the Vainshtein mechanism is possible and, thus, some peculiar observational signatures should be detectable and make it distinguishable from general relativity. We apply this model to a sample of clusters of galaxies observed under the textit{CLASH} survey, using both new data from gravitational lensing events and archival data from X-ray intra-cluster hot gas observations. In particular, we use the latter to model the gas density, and then use it as the only ingredient in the matter clusters budget to calculate the expected lensing convergence map. Results show that, in the context of this extended Galileon, the assumption of having only gas and no Dark Matter at all in the clusters is able to match observations. We also obtain narrow and very interesting bounds on the parameters which characterize this model. In particular, we find that, at least for one of them, the general relativity limit is excluded at $2sigma$ confidence level, thus making this model clearly statistically different and competitive with respect to general relativity.
