Develops a local open EFT for non-Abelian gauge theories using dynamical color-frame variables and color-current sectors in Schwinger-Keldysh formalism, yielding nonlocal dissipative kernels and naturally incorporating hard thermal loop responses after integration.
Constructs a manifestly diagonal-BRST-invariant Schwinger-Keldysh path integral for open non-Abelian gauge theories with arbitrary physical initial states, yielding Ward-Takahashi-Slavnov-Taylor identities and a Keldysh BRST symmetry for the Open EFT.
A minimal open EFT for late-time acceleration fits BAO observations without NEC violations and predicts dissipative suppression of GW luminosity distance, modified Bardeen potentials with gravitational slip, and enhanced low-z structure formation.
Derives gauge-invariant influence functionals for photons and Stueckelberg fields in open U(1) gauge EFTs via BRST on the in-in contour after integrating out matter.
An expression is derived to compute time-dependent Wigner functions directly from initial values in open quantum systems of a non-relativistic particle with a general environment.
A transient parity-violating phase during inflation generates a robust blue-tilted (n_T ≃ 2) primordial gravitational wave spectrum at small scales with nearly maximal helicity coherence and linear polarization, offering a cosmological template for PTA data distinct from astrophysical sources.
