2T-gravity in d+2 dimensions predicts 1T General Relativity (GR) in d dimensions, augmented with a local scale symmetry known as the Weyl symmetry in 1T field theory. The emerging GR comes with a number of constraints, particularly on scalar fields and their interactions in 1T field theory. These constraints, detailed in this paper, are footprints of 2T-gravity and could be a basis for testing 2T-physics. Some of the conceptually interesting consequences of the accidental Weyl symmetry include that the gravitational constant emerges from vacuum values of the dilaton and other Higgs-type scalars and that it changes after every cosmic phase transition (inflation, grand unification, electroweak phase transition, etc.). We show that this consequential Weyl symmetry in d dimensions originates from coordinate reparametrization, not from scale transformations, in the d+2 spacetime of 2T-gravity. To recognize this structure we develop in detail the geometrical structures, curvatures, symmetries, etc. of the d+2 spacetime which is restricted by a homothety condition derived from the action of 2T-gravity. Observers that live in d dimensions perceive GR and all degrees of freedom as shadows of their counterparts in d+2 dimensions. Kaluza-Klein (KK) type modes are removed by gauge symmetries and constraints that follow from the 2T-gravity action. However some analogs to KK modes, which we call prolongations of the shadows into the higher dimensions, remain but they are completely determined, up to gauge freedom, by the shadows in d dimensions.

The relation between motion in $-1/r$ and $r^{2}$ potentials, known since Newton, can be demonstrated by the substitution $rrightarrow r^{2}$ in the classical/quantum radial equations of the Kepler/Hydrogen problems versus the harmonic oscillator. Th is suggests a duality-type relationship between these systems. However, when both radial and angular components of these systems are included the possibility of a true duality seems to be remote. Indeed, investigations that explored and generalized Newtons radial relation, including algebraic approaches based on noncompact groups such as SO(4,2), have never exhibited a full duality consistent with Newtons. On the other hand, 2T-physics predicts a host of dualities between pairs of a huge set of systems that includes Newtons two systems. These dualities take the form of rather complicated canonical transformations that relate the full phase spaces of these respective systems in all directions. In this paper we focus on Newtons case by imposing his radial relation to find an appropriate basis for 2T-physics dualities, and then construct the full duality. Using the techniques of 2T-physics, we discuss the hidden symmetry of the actions (beyond the symmetry of Hamiltonians) for the Hydrogen atom in $D$-dimensions and the harmonic oscillator in $bar{D}$ dimensions. The symmetries lead us to find the one-to-one relation between the quantum states, including angular degrees of freedom, for specific values of $left( D,bar{D}right) $, and construct the explicit quantum canonical transformation in those special cases. We find that the canonical transformation has itself a hidden gauge symmetry that is crucial for the respective phase spaces to be dual even when $D eqbar{D}$. In this way we display the surprising beautiful symmetry of the full duality that generalizes Newtons radial duality.

We analyze behaviour of D3-branes in BGMPZ throat geometry. We show that although single brane has some of the moduli stabilized multi-brane system tends to expand and form a bound state. Such a system loses non-abelian gauge symmetry.
We construct a generalisation of the three-dimensional Poincare algebra that also includes a colour symmetry factor. This algebra can be used to define coloured Poincare gravity in three space-time dimensions as well as to study generalisations of ma ssive and massless free particle models. We present various such generalised particle models that differ in which orbits of the coloured Poincare symmetry are described. Our approach can be seen as a stepping stone towards the description of particles interacting with a non-abelian background field or as a starting point for a worldline formulation of an associated quantum field theory.
Within the asymptotic safety scenario for gravity various conceptual issues related to the scale dependence of the metric are analyzed. The running effective field equations implied by the effective average action of Quantum Einstein Gravity (QEG) an d the resulting families of resolution dependent metrics are discussed. The status of scale dependent vs. scale independent diffeomorphisms is clarified, and the difference between isometries implemented by scale dependent and independent Killing vectors is explained. A concept of scale dependent causality is proposed and illustrated by various simple examples. The possibility of assigning an intrinsic length to objects in a QEG spacetime is also discussed.

U($N$) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory naturally appears as the low-energy effective theory of a system of $N$ D-branes and open strings between them. Transverse spatial directions emerge from scalar fields, which are $Ntimes N$ matrices with color indices; roughly speaking, the eigenvalues are the locations of D-branes. In the past, it was argued that this simple emergent space picture cannot be used in the context of gauge/gravity duality, because the ground-state wave function delocalizes at large $N$, leading to a conflict with the locality in the bulk geometry. In this paper we show that this conventional wisdom is not correct: the ground-state wave function does not delocalize, and there is no conflict with the locality of the bulk geometry. This conclusion is obtained by clarifying the meaning of the diagonalization of a matrix in Yang-Mills theory, which is not as obvious as one might think. This observation opens up the prospect of characterizing the bulk geometry via the color degrees of freedom in Yang-Mills theory, all the way down to the center of the bulk.
