This volume provides a detailed account of bosonization. The first part of the book examines the technical aspects of bosonization including one-dimensional fermions, the Gaussian model, the structure of Hilbert space in conformal theories,…
We develop a method based on the generalised St\"uckelberg prescription for discussing bosonisation in the low energy regime of the SU(2) massive Thirring model in 2+1 dimensions. For arbitrary values of the coupling parameter the bosonised…
A method to perform bosonization of a fermionic theory in (1+1) dimensions in a path integral framework is developed. The method relies exclusively on the path integral property of allowing variable shifts, and does not depend on the…
This thesis investigates the quantum properties of T-duality invariant formalisms of String Theory. We introduce and review duality invariant formalisms of String Theory including the Doubled Formalism. We calculate the background field…
We formulate a $\mathbb{Z}_k$-parafermionization/bosonization scheme for one-dimensional lattice models and field theories on a torus, starting from a generalized Jordan-Wigner transformation on a lattice, which extends the Majorana-Ising…
We show that a certain superfield formalism can be used to find an off-shell supersymmetric description for some supersymmetric field theories where conventional superfield formalism does not work. This "new" formalism contains even…
We introduce models of one-dimensional $n(\geq3)$-body problems that undergo phase transition from a continuous scale-invariant phase to a discrete scale-invariant phase. In this paper, we focus on identical spinless particles that interact…
Various classical counterparts for the two-level pairing model in a many-fermion system are presented in the Schwinger boson representation. It is shown that one of the key ingredients giving the classical descriptions for quantal system is…
We review the classical boson-fermion correspondence in the context of the $\widehat{sl(2)}$ current algebra at level 2. This particular algebra is ideal to exhibit this correspondence because it can be realized either in terms of three…
We discuss and explore new aspects of the generalized Dyson mapping of nuclear collective superalgebras composed of an arbitrary fermion-pair algebra and a set of single-fermion creation/annihilation operators. It is shown that a direct…
We introduce and study one parameter family of integrable quantum field theories. This family has a Lagrangian description in terms of massive Thirring fermions $\psi,\psi^{\dagger}$ and charged bosons $\chi,\bar{\chi}$ of complex…
Within the superfield approach, we consider the duality between the supersymmetric Maxwell-Chern-Simons and self-dual theories in three spacetime dimensions. Using a gauge embedding method, we construct the dual theory to the self-dual…
We perform an in-depth analysis of the transformation rules under duality for couplings of theories containing multiple scalars, $p$-form gauge fields, linearized gravitons or $(p,1)$ mixed symmetry tensors. Following a similar reasoning to…
A description of a large system of particles is often sought in a derivation from the detailed behaviour of just a few of the particles. The present thesis deals with the connection between such microscopic features and the nature of a…
We investigate $\alpha'$ corrections of bosonic strings in the framework of double field theory. The previously introduced "doubled $\alpha'$-geometry" gives $\alpha'$-deformed gauge transformations arising in the Green-Schwarz anomaly…
A planar boundary introduced \`a la Symanzik in the 5D topological BF theory, with the only requirement of locality and power counting, allows to uniquely determine a gauge invariant, non topological 4D Lagrangian. The boundary condition on…
We discuss in details a simple, purely bosonic, quantum field theory belonging to larger class of models with the following properties: a) They are asymptotically free, with a dynamically generated mass scale. b) They have a space of…
We introduce a new class of duality symmetries amongst quantum field theories. The new class is based upon global spacetime symmetries, such as Poincare invariance and supersymmetry, in the same way as the existing duality transformations…
We describe a 3d analog of the Jordan-Wigner transformation which maps an arbitrary fermionic system on a 3d spatial lattice to a 2-form $\mathbb{Z}_2$ gauge theory with an unusual Gauss law. An important property of this map is that it…
This article reviews many manifestations and applications of dual representations of pairs of groups, primarily in atomic and nuclear physics. Examples are given to show how such paired representations are powerful aids in understanding the…
