We consider ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric U(1) gauge theory in a nonanticommutative ${\cal N}=2$ harmonic superspace with the singlet deformation. We generalize analytic superfield and gauge parameter to the nonanticommutative theory so that…
In this note, we consider the reformulation of the Dirac-Born-Infeld action for a Dirichlet p-brane in Brink-Di Vecchia-Howe-Tucker form, i.e., including an independent non-propagating world-volume metric. When p>2, the action becomes…
Starting with a supersymmetric U(N)xU(N) gauge theory built in N=1 superspace, a nonsupersymmetric theory is obtained by ``twisting'' the gauginos into a different representation of the group than the gauge bosons. Despite the fact that…
We demonstrate that the nilpotent Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetry invariance of the Lagrangian density of a four (3 + 1)-dimensional (4D) non-Abelian 1-form gauge theory with Dirac fields can be captured within the…
We present a formalism to explicitly construct non-Abelian gauge theories on noncommutative spaces (induced via a star product with aconstant Poisson tensor) from a consistency relation. This results in an expansion of the gauge parameter,…
We derive the noncommutative Dirac-Born-Infeld action for the $D$-brane, which governs dynamics of $D$-brane with a NS-NS $B$-field in the low energy regime. Depending on some details of the path integral prescriptions, both ordinary…
In certain regions of the moduli space of K3 and Calabi-Yau manifolds, D-branes wrapped on non-supersymmetric cycles may give rise to stable configurations. We show that in the orbifold limit, some of these stable configurations can be…
We derive the coupling of a hypermultiplet of N=2 global supersymmetry to the Dirac-Born-Infeld Maxwell theory with linear N=1 and a second nonlinear supersymmetry. At the level of global supersymmetry, this construction corresponds to the…
Assigning an intrinsic constant dipole moment to any field, we present a new kind of associative star product, the dipole star product, which was first introduced in [hep-th/0008030]. We develop the mathematics necessary to study the…
Electric-magnetic duality ($S$-duality) is a well-known property of pure $u(1)$ gauge theory in 3+1 dimensions. In this paper, we investigate the compatibility of this duality with time-reversal symmetry. We consider two theories obtained…
We study a systematic derivation of four dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric effective theory from ten dimensional non-Abelian Dirac-Born-Infeld action compactified on a six dimensional torus with magnetic fluxes on the D-branes. We…
Models of interactions of D-dimensional hypermultiplets and supersymmetric gauge multiplets with $\mathcal{N}=8$ supercharges $(D{\leq} 6)$ can be formulated in the framework of harmonic superspaces. The effective Coulomb low-energy action…
A very simple field theory in noncommutative phase space X^{M},P^{M} in d+2 dimensions, with a gauge symmetry based on noncommutative u*(1,1), furnishes the foundation for the field theoretic formulation of Two-Time Physics. This leads to a…
This paper suggests a generalization of the Born--Infeld action (1932) for the case of electroweak and gravitational fields. Basic notions one deals with are Dirac matrices, $\gamma_{a}$, and dimensionless covariant derivatives, $\pi_{a} =…
We construct the general formulation of N=1 supersymmetric self-dual abelian gauge theory involving auxiliary chiral spinor superfields. Self-duality in this context is just U(N) invariance of the nonlinear interaction of the auxiliary…
The low-energy effective action of supersymmetric D-brane systems consists of two terms, one of which is of the Born-Infeld type and one of which is of the Chern-Simons type. I briefly review the status of our understanding of these terms…
We determine the non-abelian Born-Infeld action, including fermions, as it results from the four-point tree-level open superstring scattering amplitudes at order alpha'^2. We find that, after an appropriate field redefinition all terms at…
We consider a locally supersymmetric theory where the Planck mass is replaced by a dynamical superfield. This model can be thought of as the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Brans-Dicke theory (MSBD). The motivation that underlies…
Supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models are obtained from linear sigma models by imposing supersymmetric constraints. If we introduce auxiliary chiral and vector superfields, these constraints can be expressed by D-terms and F-terms depending…
We study N=1 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theories coupled to an adjoint chiral field with superpotential. We consider the full supersymmetric moduli space of these theories obtained by adding all allowed chiral operators. These include…
