In this paper we relate a problem in representation theory - the study of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over certain braided Hopf algebras - to a problem in two-dimensional quantum field theory, namely the identification of integrable…
S(pacelike)D-branes are objects arising naturally in string theory when Dirichlet boundary conditions are imposed on the time direction. SD-brane physics is inherently time-dependent. Previous investigations of gravity fields of SD-branes…

An origin and necessity of so called conformal (or,Penrose-Chernikov-Tagirov) coupling of scalar field to the metric of n-dimensional Riemannian space-time is discussed in brief. The corresponding general-relativistic field equation implies…
We construct classical theories for scalar fields in arbitrary Carroll spacetimes that are invariant under Carrollian diffeomorphisms and Weyl transformations. When the local symmetries are gauge fixed these theories become Carrollian…

From conformal field theory on the Riemann sphere, we implement its boundary version in a simply-connected domain using the Schottky double construction. We consider the statistical fields generated by background charge modification of the…
This work interprets the quantum terms in a Lagrangian, and consequently of the wave equation and momentum tensor, in terms of a modified spacetime metric. Part I interprets the quantum terms in the Lagrangian of a Klein Gordon field as…
We study properties of a scalar quantum field theory on two-dimensional noncommutative space-times. Contrary to the common belief that noncommutativity of space-time would be a key to remove the ultraviolet divergences, we show that field…
Motivated by gauge theory, we develop a general framework for chain complex valued algebraic quantum field theories. Building upon our recent operadic approach to this subject, we show that the category of such theories carries a canonical…
The thesis is devoted to the phase space representation of relativistic quantum mechanics. For a class of observables with matrix-valued Weyl symbols proportional to the identity matrix, the Weyl-Wigner-Moyal formalism is proposed. The…
We study large-spin operators in conformal field theories (CFTs) in spacetime dimensions $d>2$ by placing the theory on appropriate pp-wave backgrounds. We show that these geometries admit Heisenberg-group symmetries, and that these…
Particle aspects of two-dimensional conformal field theories are investigated, using methods from algebraic quantum field theory. The results include asymptotic completeness in terms of (counterparts of) Wigner particles in any vacuum…
