We consider the six dimensional hypermultiplet, vector and tensor multiplet models in (1,0) harmonic superspace and discuss the corresponding superfield actions. The actions for free (2,0) tensor multiplet and for interacting vector/tensor…
We consider theories for scalar and vector fields coupled to the energy-momentum tensor. Since these fields also carry a non-trivial energy-momentum tensor, the coupling prescription generates self-interactions. In analogy with gravity…

We show that each rigid symmetry of a D-string action is contained in a family of infinitely many symmetries. In particular, kappa-invariant D-string actions have infinitely many supersymmetries. The result is not restricted to standard…
In 4-D heterotic superstrings, the dilaton and antisymmetric tensor fields belong to a linear N=1 supersymmetric multiplet L. We study the lagrangian describing the coupling of one linear multiplet to chiral and gauge multiplets in global…
The group SU(2)*SU(2) acts naturally on SL(2,C) by simultaneous right and left multiplication. We study the Kahler metrics invariant under this action using global Kahler potentials. The volume growth and various curvature quantities are…
The vector-tensor multiplet is coupled off-shell to an N=2 vector multiplet such that its central charge transformations are realized locally. A gauged central charge is a necessary prerequisite for a coupling to supergravity and the…
We construct a unique (2,0) supersymmetric action in six dimensions, describing a tensor multiplet interacting with a self-dual string. It is a sum of four terms: A free kinetic term for the tensor multiplet fields integrated over Minkowski…
We revise the calculation of the one-loop effective action for scalar and spinor fields coupled to the dilaton in two dimensions. Applying the method of covariant perturbation theory for the heat kernel we derive the effective action in an…
An N=2 supersymmetric self-interaction of the vector-tensor multiplet is presented, in which the vector provides the gauge field for local central charge transformations. The dual description in terms of a vector multiplet and an N=1…
We present the most general actions of a single scalar field and two scalar fields coupled to gravity, consistent with second order field equations in four dimensions, possessing local scale invariance. We apply two different methods to…

In this paper, we obtain a gauge invariant effective action for a bulk massless $U(1)$ gauge vector field on a brane with codimension two by using a general Kaluza-Klein (KK) decomposition for the field. It suggests that there exist two…
