A consistent description of gauge theories on coordinate dependent non-commutative (NC) space-time is a long-standing problem with a number of solutions, none of which is free from criticism. In this work, we discuss the approach proposed…
The local covariant continuum action of an SU(2) gauge theory in covariant Abelian gauges is investigated. It describes the critical limit of an Abelian Lattice Gauge Theory (LGT) with an equivariant BRST-symmetry. This Abelian LGT has…
We discuss some exact Seiberg--Witten-type maps for noncommutative electrodynamics. Their implications for anomalies in different (noncommutative and commutative) descriptions are also analysed.
It is shown that SU(N) gauge theory coupled to adjoint Higgs can be explicitly re-written in terms of SU(N) gauge invariant dynamical variables with local physical interactions. The resultant theory has a novel compact abelian $U(1)^{(N -…
We study deformed supersymmetry in N=2 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory in non(anti)commutative N=1 superspace. Using the component formalism, we construct deformed N=(1,1/2) supersymmetry explicitly. Based on the deformed supersymmetry, we…
We examine trilinear and quartic anomalous gauge couplings (AGCs) generated in composite Higgs models and models with warped extra dimensions. We first revisit the SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y effective Lagrangian and derive the charged and two-photon…
For non-abelian non-supersymmetric gauge theories, generic dual theories have been constructed. In these theories the couplings appear inverted. However, they do not possess a Yang-Mills structure but rather are a kind of non-linear sigma…
We consider multicomponent Abelian Higgs (AH) gauge theories with multiparameter scalar quartic potentials that are extensions, with a smaller global symmetry group, of $SU(N)$-invariant AH theories. In particular, we consider an AH model…
We reformulate the proof of the renormalization of a spontaneously broken gauge theory by multiplicatively renormalizing the vacuum expectation value of the Higgs field in the $SU(2)$~Higgs model.
This paper focuses on extending our previous discussion of an Abelian U(1) gauge theory involving infinite derivatives to a non-Abelian SU(N) case. The renormalization group equation (RGEs) of the SU(N) gauge coupling is calculated and…
Interactions between non-BPS non-Abelian vortices are studied in non-Abelian U(1) x SU(N) extensions of the Abelian-Higgs model in four dimensions. In addition to the usual type I/II Abelian superconductors, we find other two new regimes:…
We consider the Higgs and Yukawa parts of the Non-Commutative Standard Model (NCSM). We explore the NC-action to give all Feynman rules for couplings of the Higgs boson to electro-weak gauge fields and fermions.

The Higgs mechanism is reconsidered in the canonical Weyl gauge formulation of quantized gauge theories, using an approach in which redundant degrees of freedom are eliminated. As a consequence, its symmetry aspects appear in a different…
We study the consequences of cancellation of cubic Abelian anomalies in F-theory GUT models that utilise hypercharge flux in the presence of additional U(1) symmetries. We show that a mixed anomaly between the hypercharge and two U(1) gauge…
In this paper, we study the consequences of the assumption that the gauge group $SU(2)$ of the standard model is a nonassociative image of $Spin(3)$. Such an approach allows us to take a different look at the Higgs mechanism and obtain the…
We describe a simple connection between the Froggatt-Nielsen, Stueckelberg and Higgs mechanisms, all three of them combined in a consistent way. This is illustrated in the context of a class of generalizations of the Standard Model with a…
Some derivation-based differential calculi which have been used to construct models of noncommutative gauge theories are presented and commented. Some comparisons between them are made.
We implement the Hamiltonian treatment of a nonAbelian noncommutative gauge theory, considering with some detail the algebraic structure of the noncommutative symmetry group. The first class constraints and Hamiltonian are obtained and…
