A way of covariantizing duality symmetric actions is proposed. As examples considered are a manifestly space-time invariant duality--symmetric action for abelian gauge fields coupled to axion-dilaton fields and gravity in D=4, and a…
We show that each irreducible tensor representation of weight 2 of the rotation group of three-dimensional space in the space of rank 3 covariant tensors gives rise to an associative algebra with unity. We find the algebraic relations that…
We explore the question concerning the number of distinct resonant algebras depending on the generator content, which consists of the Lorentz generator, translation, and new additional Lorentz-like and translation-like generators. Such…
We produce explicit generators of the classical W-algebras associated with the principal nilpotents in the simple Lie algebras of all classical types and in the exceptional Lie algebra of type $G_2$. The generators are given by determinant…
We analyze the phases of supersymmetric chiral gauge theories with an antisymmetric tensor and (anti)fundamental flavors, in the presence of a classically marginal superpotential deformation. Varying the number of flavors that appear in the…
A cell algebra structure is found for a family of generalized Schur algebras previously studied by the author. This cell algebra structure is then used to construct the irreducible representations of these algebras and to determine when the…
We investigate superconformal surface defects in four-dimensional N=2 superconformal theories. Each such defect gives rise to a module of the associated chiral algebra and the surface defect Schur index is the character of this module.…
We find a relation between the spectrum of solitons of massive $N=2$ quantum field theories in $d=2$ and the scaling dimensions of chiral fields at the conformal point. The condition that the scaling dimensions be real imposes restrictions…
A general method to easily build global and relative operators for any number n of elementary systems if they are defined for 2 is presented. It is based on properties of the morphisms valued in the tensor products of algebras of the…
The formalism of graded Poisson-sigma models allows the construction of N=(2,2) dilaton supergravity in terms of a minimal number of fields. For the gauged chiral U(1) symmetry the full action, involving all fermionic contributions, is…
New results on baryon structure and spectrum developed in collaboration with Dan Riska [1-4] are reported. The main idea is that beyond the chiral symmetry spontaneous breaking scale light and strange baryons should be considered as systems…
This is a brief overview of my work on the realization of contact superconformal algebras in terms of pseudodifferential symbols on a supercircle. Also the 2-cocycles on K'(4) are given for this realization.
We study chiral algebras in the $\bar{Q}$-cohomology of two dimensional SYK models with extended supersymmetry. In a special limit discovered in arXiv:1805.09325, we are able to construct explicitly a "vertical" single-particle higher-spin…
We present a formulation of chiral gauge theories, which admits more general spectra of Dirac operators and reveals considerably more possibilities for the structure of the chiral projections. Our two forms of correlation functions both…
In quantum mechanics, associative algebras play an important role in understanding symmetries and operator algebras, providing new algebraic frameworks for describing physical systems. This work classifies associative algebras over a field…
Chiral superfields with multiple dotted Lorentz spinor indices (`dotspinors') are important in the analysis of supersymmetry breaking through the mechanisms of Cybersusy. This paper describes the actions for massive dotspinors coupled to…
Using the Poisson current algebra of the supersymmetric principal chiral model, we develop the algebraic canonical structure of the model by evaluating the fundamental Poisson bracket of the Lax matrices that fits into the rs matrix…
We show that the nonlinear chiral supermultiplet allows one to construct, over given two-dimensional bosonic mechanics, the family of two-dimensional ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric mechanics parameterized with the holomorphic function $\lambda…
We describe a new algebraic structure of "deformed chiral algebra" motivated by the study of the deformed W-algebras. We use it to gain some insights into the deformed Virasoro algebra.
Attached to a vector space V is a vertex algebra S(V) known as the beta-gamma system or algebra of chiral differential operators on V. It is analogous to the Weyl algebra D(V), and is related to D(V) via the Zhu functor. If G is a connected…
