We revisit supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models on the target manifold $CP^{N-1}$ and $SO(N)/SO(N-2)\times U(1)$ in four dimensions. These models are formulated as gauged linear models, but it is indicated that the Wess-Zumino term should…
We study a type of left-invariant structure on Lie groups, or equivalently on Lie algebras. We introduce obstructions to the existence of a hypo structure, namely the 5-dimensional geometry of hypersurfaces in manifolds with holonomy SU(3).…
We study D-branes on three-dimensional orbifolds ${\bf C}^3/\Gamma$ where $\Gamma$ are finite subgroups of SU(3). The quiver diagram of $\ZnZn \in SU(3)$ can be expressed in three-dimensional form. According to the correspondence between…
We use geometric arguments to derive a possible form for the radial part of the ``zero-mode Hamiltonian'' for the two dimensional sigma model with target space S^3, or more generally a compact simply connected Lie group.
We classify finite dimensional division real associative $\mathcal{Z}_2$-algebras, introduce composition $\mathcal{Z}_2$-algebras, and extend the Campbell-Baker-Hausdorff series and Lie correspondence in the context of linear Hu-Liu Leibniz…
We express the discrete 1+1-dimensional $O(3)$ non-linear sigma model (NL$\sigma$M) in a form well-suited for the continuous variable approach to quantum computing. Within the Schwinger boson formulation, we need two qumodes…
We construct a family-unified model on a Z_2xZ_2 orbifold in five dimensions. The model is based on a supersymmetric SU(7) gauge theory. The gauge group is broken by orbifold boundary conditions to a product of grand unified SU(5) and…
A well-known and old result of Hazewinkel and Koszul states that the cohomology of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra is isomorphic, up to a suitable shift, to its twisted homology, a Lie-theoretical version of Poincare duality. This paper…
Motivated by applications in computational anatomy, we consider a second-order problem in the calculus of variations on object manifolds that are acted upon by Lie groups of smooth invertible transformations. This problem leads to solution…
Following arXiv:1907.04737, we continue our investigation of the relation between the renormalizability (with finitely many couplings) and integrability in 2d $\sigma$-models. We focus on the "$\lambda$-model," an integrable model…
It is shown that the SU(2) Higgs model on a lattice is equivalent to the Georgi--Glashow model in the limit of a small coupling constant between the Higgs and gauge fields. It can therefore be concluded that the transition between the…
We study some properties of coisotropic submanifolds of a manifold with respect to a given multivector field. Using this notion, we generalize the results of Weinstein \cite{wein} from Poisson bivector field to Nambu-Poisson tensor or more…
We study a broad class of two dimensional gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs) with off-shell N=(2,2) supersymmetry that flow to nonlinear sigma models (NLSMs) on noncompact geometries with torsion. These models arise from coupling chiral,…
We extend the Kazama-Suzuki construction of models with N=(2,2) world-sheet supersymmetry to cosets S/K of supergroups. Among the admissible target spaces that allow for an extension to N=2 superconformal algebras are some simple Lie…
We briefly review the construction of N=2 WZW models in terms of Manin triples. We analyse the restrictions which should be imposed on the gluing conditions of the affine currents in order to preserve half of the bulk supersymmetry. In…
The vacuum structure for a Nambu-Jona -Lasinio type model is studied using the effective potential approach. The relevant degrees of freedom are taken to be two different sets of static, auxiliary fields with different symmetry properties,…
In this paper we construct topological sigma models which include a potential and are related to twisted massive supersymmetric sigma models. Contrary to a previous construction these models have no central charge and do not require the…
A family of solvable self-dual Lie algebras that are not double extensions of Abelian algebras and, therefore, cannot be obtained through a Wigner contraction, is presented. We construct WZNW and gauged WZNW models based on the first two…
The Poisson-Lie sigma models over nonsemisimple low dimensional real Poisson-Lie groups are investigated. We find two sided models on two, three and some four dimensional Poisson-Lie groups where the Poisson-Lie sigma models over…
Quantum groups play a role of symmetries of integrable theories in two dimensions. They may be detected on the classical level as Poisson-Lie symmetries of the corresponding phase spaces. We discuss specifically the Wess-Zumino-Witten…
