We show that the infinite series in the classical action for non(anti)commutative N=2 sigma models in two dimensions, can be resummed by using constraint equations of the auxiliary fields. We argue that the resulting action takes a standard…
The variety of consistent "gauging" deformations of supergravity theories in four dimensions depends on the choice of Lagrangian formulation. One important goal is to get the most general deformations without making hidden assumptions.…
The Schmidt's subspace theory with moving targets, as a significant branch in this field, has been substantially developed in recent years. We continue the approach of the previous work, construct a weighted version of generalized Schmidt…
Formalism of extended Lagrangian represent a systematic procedure to look for the local symmetries of a given Lagrangian action. In this work, the formalism is discussed and applied to a field theory. We describe it in detail for a field…
Potential functions can be used as generating potentials of relevant geometric structures for a Riemannian manifold such as the Riemannian metric and affine connections. We study wether this procedure can also be applied to tensors of rank…
Classical gravitating field theories reduced to three dimensions admit manifest gauge invariances and hidden symmetries, which together make up the invariance group G of the theory. If this group is large enough, the target space is a…
With a triangulation of a planar polygon with $n$ sides, one can associate an integrable system on the Grassmannian of 2-planes in an $n$-space. In this paper, we show that the potential functions of Lagrangian torus fibers of the…
We join quintessence cosmological scenarios with the duality simmetry existing in string dilaton cosmologies. Actually, we consider the tracker potential type $V = V_0/{\phi}^{\alpha}$ and show that duality is only established if $\alpha =…
We present a new class of matrix models which are manifestly symmetric under the T-duality transformation of the target space. The models may serve as a nonperturbative regularization for the T-duality symmetry in continuum string theory.…
Topologically non trivial effects appearing in the discussion of duality transformations in higher genus manifolds are discussed in a simple example, and their relation with the properties of Topological Field Theories is established.
We calculate the most general terms for arbitrary Lagrangians of twisted chiral superfields in 2D (2,2) supersymmetric theories [1]. The scalar and fermion kinetic terms and interactions are given explicitly. We define a set of twisted…
We consider SO(3) symmetric triplet of Higgs fields and SO(4) symmetric complex doublet of Higgs fields in the closed FLRW universe. For these models, Lagrangian densities provide effective potentials leading to spontaneous symmetry…
The construction of dual theories for linearized gravity in four dimensions is considered. Our approach is based on the parent Lagrangian method previously developed for the massive spin-two case, but now considered for the zero mass case.…
We consider theories with degenerate kinetic terms such as those that arise at strong coupling in $N=2$ super Yang-Mills theory. We compute the components of generalized $N=1,2$ supersymmetric sigma model actions in two dimensions. The…
This paper is the third of a series on Hamiltonian stationary Lagrangian surfaces. We present here the most general theory, valid for any Hermitian symmetric target space. Using well-chosen moving frame formalism, we show that the equations…
For large values of the Higgs mass the low energy structure of the gauged linear sigma model in the spontaneously broken phase can adequately be described by an effective field theory. We present a manifestly gauge-invariant functional…
The symmetric space sine-Gordon models arise by conformal reduction of ordinary 2-dim $\sigma$-models, and they are integrable exhibiting a black-hole type metric in target space. We provide a Lagrangian formulation of these systems by…
The worldsheet theories that describe Poisson-Lie T-dualisable $\sigma$-models on group manifolds as well as integrable $\eta$, $\lambda$ and $\beta$-deformations provide examples of ${\cal E}$-models. Here we show how such ${\cal…
In this work we investigate the presence of electrically charged structures that are localized in two and three spatial dimensions. We use the Maxwell-scalar Lagrangian to describe several systems with distinct interactions for the scalar…
We derive new duality relations that link the energy of configurations associated with a class of soft pair potentials to the corresponding energy of the dual (Fourier-transformed) potential. We apply them by showing how information about…
