Covariant quantization of theories based on nonlinear extensions of Lie algebras in 2d is studied by using a generalized Lagrangian BRST formalism. The quantum action is constructed to be invariant under the off--shell nilpotent BRST…
Quantization of closed string proceeds with a suitable choice of worldsheet vacuum. A priori, the vacuum may be chosen independently for left-moving and right-moving sectors. We construct {\sl ab initio} quantized bosonic string theory with…
We study the gauge invariant fermions in the fermion coset representation of $SU(N)_k$ Wess-Zumino-Witten models which create, by construction, the physical excitations (quasiparticles) of the theory. We show that they provide an explicit…
We study non-Abelian fields in the context of very special relativity (VSR). For this we define the covariant derivative and the gauge field gauge transformations, both of them involving a fixed null vector $n_{\mu}$, related to the VSR…
Gauge theories on q-deformed spaces are constructed using covariant derivatives. For this purpose a ``vielbein'' is introduced, which transforms under gauge transformations. The non-Abelian case is treated by establishing a connection to…

We investigate the new spinor field realizations of the $W_{3}$ algebra, making use of the fact that the $W_{3}$ algebra can be linearized by the addition of a spin-1 current. We then use these new realizations to build the nilpotent…
A new method of gauging of WZNW models is presented, leading to a class of exact string solutions with a target space metric of Minkowskian signature. The corresponding models may be interpreted as $\sigma$-model analogues of the Toda field…
Poisson-Lie T-duality of the Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) model having the group manifold of $SU(2)$ as target space is investigated. The whole construction relies on the deformation of the affine current algebra of the model, the semi-direct…
