We quantize a particle confined to move on a torus knot satisfying constraint condition ($p \theta + q \phi) \approx 0$, within the context of a geometrically motivated approach - the Faddeev-Jackiw formalism. We also deduce the constraint…
I bosonize the position-space correlators of flavor-diagonal scalar fermion bilinears in arbitrary generalizations of the Schwinger model with $n_F$ massless fermions coupled to $n_A$ gauge bosons for $n_F\geq n_A$. For $n_A=n_F$, the…
A revised and complete list of the electroweak chiral lagrangian operators up to dimension-four is provided. The connection of these operators to the $S$, $T$ and $U$ parameters and the parameters describing the triple gauge boson vertices…
We write down an $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric extension for non-Abelian gauge theories in (1+3) dimensions with a Lorentz- and CPT-violating term of the Carroll-Field-Jackiw type. By including effects of the background (supersymmetric)…
We consider theories with gauged chiral fermions in which there are abelian anomalies, and no nonabelian anomalies (but there may be nonabelian gauge fields present). We construct an associated theory that is gauge-invariant,…
The supersymmetric model developed by Witten to study the equivariant cohomology of a manifold with an isometric circle action is derived from the BRST quantization of a simple classical model. The gauge-fixing process is carefully…
We construct Hamiltonian dynamics of the generalized spherically symmetric gravitational model in extended phase space. We start from the Faddeev - Popov effective action with gauge-fixing and ghost terms, making use of gauge conditions in…
In this paper we show that using frame-like gauge invariant formulation for the massive bosonic and fermionic fields in three dimensions the free Lagrangians for these fields can be rewritten in the explicitly gauge invariant form in terms…
The non-Abelian gauge model proposed by Jackiw and Pi, which generates an even-parity mass term in three space-time dimensions, is revisited in this letter. All the symmetries of the model are collected and established by means of BRS…
We reinvestigate Yokoyama's gaugeon formalism for the spontaneously broken Abelian gauge theory. Within the framework of the covariant linear gauges, we give a general gauge-fixing Lagrangian which includes the gauge field, the Goldstone…
We construct new heterotic string backgrounds which are analogous to superstring solutions corresponding to coset models but are not simply the `embeddings'of the latter. They are described by the (1,0) supersymmetric extension of the $G/H$…
The Schwinger model is studied with a new one - parameter class of gauge invariant regularizations that generalizes the usual point - splitting or Fujikawa schemes. The spectrum is found to be qualitatively unchanged, except for a limiting…
We investigate the gauged NJL--model in curved spacetime using the RG formulation and the equivalency with the gauge Higgs--Yukawa model in a modified 1/N_c -expansion. The strong curvature induced chiral symmetry breaking is found in the…
We carry out an investigation imposing a chiral constraint in the phase space of vector and axial-vector Schwinger model. We find that resulting model is identical to gauge non-invariant model which was obtained by the imposition of chiral…
When an antisymmetric tensor potential is coupled to the field strength of a gauge field via a $B\wedge F$ coupling and a kinetic term for $B$ is included, the gauge field develops an effective mass. The theory can be made invariant under a…
We propose a systematic procedure for extracting gauge invariant and gauge fixed actions for various higher-spin gauge field theories from covariant bosonic open string field theory. By identifying minimal gauge invariant part for the…
The Lorentz-invariant nuclear lagrangian of Furnstahl, Serot and Tang (FST) is discussed. The FST lagrangian is derived in terms of an effective field theory and exhibits a nonlinear realization of chiral symmetry $SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R$.…
The complete list of electroweak chiral Lagrangian for W', Z' and a neutral light higgs with symmetry $SU(2)_1\otimes SU(2)_2\otimes U(1)$ is provided. The bosonic part is accurate up to order of $p^4$, the matter part involving various…
Mechanical systems (i.e., one-dimensional field theories) with constraints are the focus of this paper. In the classical theory, systems with infinite-dimensional targets are considered as well (this then encompasses also higher-dimensional…
We consider a generic gauge system, whose physical degrees of freedom are obtained by restriction on a constraint surface followed by factorization with respect to the action of gauge transformations; in so doing, no Hamiltonian structure…
