We investigate deformations of four-dimensional N=(1,1) euclidean superspace induced by nonanticommuting fermionic coordinates. We essentially use the harmonic superspace approach and consider nilpotent bi-differential Poisson operators…
Very special relativity (VSR) keeps the main features of special relativity but breaks rotational invariance due to an intrinsic preferred direction. We study the VSR modified extended BRST and anti-BRST symmetry of the Batalin-Vilkovisky…
In this paper, the BRST symmetry transformation is presented for the noncommutative U(N) gauge theory. The nilpotency of the charge associated to this symmetry is then proved. As a consequence for the space-like non-commutativity parameter,…
In the framework of augmented superfield approach, we provide the geometrical origin and interpretation for the nilpotent (anti-)BRST charges, (anti-)co-BRST charges and a non-nilpotent bosonic charge. Together, these local and conserved…

We discuss a D-dimensional Abelian 3-form gauge theory within the framework of Bonora-Tonin's superfield formalism and derive the off-shell nilpotent and absolutely anticommuting Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetry…
We consider the superparticle models invariant under the supersymmetries with tensorial central charges, which were not included in D=4 Haag-Lopuszanski-Sohnius (HLS) supersymmetry scheme. We present firstly a generalization of D=4…
We show that the superconformal symmetries of the (1,1) sigma model decompose into a set of more refined symmetries when the target space admits projectors $P_{\pm}$, and the orthogonal complements $Q_{\pm}$, covariantly constant with…
We report on the nonlocal gauge invariant operator of dimension two, F 1/D^2 F. We are able to localize this operator by introducing a suitable set of (anti)commuting antisymmetric tensor fields. Starting from this, we succeed in…
A $\theta$-local formulation of superfield Lagrangian quantization in non-Abelian hypergauges is proposed on the basis of an extension of general reducible gauge theories to special superfield models with a Grassmann parameter $\theta$. We…
A dynamical non-Abelian 2-form gauge theory (with B \wedge F term) is endowed with the "scalar" and "vector" gauge symmetry transformations. In our present endeavor, we exploit the latter gauge symmetry transformations and perform the…

In perturbative quantum gravity, the sum of the classical Lagrangian density, a gauge fixing term and a ghost term is invariant under two sets of supersymmetric transformations called the BRST and the anti-BRST transformations. In this…
The quantum BRST charges for the Bershadsky-Knizhnik orthogonal quasi-superconformal algebras are constructed. These two-dimensional superalgebras have the $N$-extended non-linearly realised supersymmetry and the $SO(N)$ internal symmetry.…

We study an $SO(1,3)$ pure connection formulation in four dimensions for real-valued fields, inspired by the Capovilla, Dell and Jacobson complex self-dual approach. By considering the CMPR BF action, also, taking into account a more…
We study the Pauli equation on non-commutative plane. It is shown that the Supersymmetry algebra holds to all orders in the non-commutative parameter $\theta$ in case the gyro-magnetic ratio $g$ is 2. Using Seiberg-Witten map, the first…
It is pointed out that the usual $\theta$-algebra assumed for non-commuting coordinates is not $P$- and $T$-invariant, unless one {\it formally} transforms the non-commutativity parameter $\theta^{\mu\nu}$ in an appropriate way. On the…
We review a systematic many-body method capable of describing Fermi liquid and Non-Fermi liquid behavior of quantum impurity models at low temperatures on the same footing. The crossover to the high temperature local moment regime is…
We construct the quantum BRST operators for a large class of superconformal and quasi--superconformal algebras with quadratic nonlinearity. The only free parameter in these algebras is the level of the (super) Kac-Moody sector. The…
