Numerical solutions to the nonlinear sigma model (NLSM), a wave map from 3+1 Minkowski space to S^3, are computed in three spatial dimensions (3D) using adaptive mesh refinement (AMR). For initial data with compact support the model is…

We construct on-shell ${\mathcal{N}}=2$ nonlinear sigma models on $SO(2N)/U(N)$ and $Sp(N)/U(N)$ by holomorphically embedding the models in the hyper-K\"{a}hler nonlinear sigma model on the cotangent bundle of the Grassmann manifold $T^\ast…

We rewrite the N=(2,2) non-linear sigma model using auxiliary spinorial superfields defining the model on ${\cal T}\oplus^ *{\cal T}$, where ${\cal T}$ is the tangent bundle of the target space. This is motivated by possible connections to…

As is well known, one can arrange the parameters of the O(N) non-linear sigma model to reproduce the low energy S-matrix elements of the renormalizable O(N) linear sigma model. In this note we provide details which are necessary in order to…

We perform a global renormalization group study of O(N) symmetric Wess-Zumino theories and their phases in three euclidean dimensions. At infinite N the theory is solved exactly. The phases and phase transitions are worked out for finite…

In this paper we consider non-anticommutative field theories in $\mathcal{N} =2$ superspace formalism on three-dimensional manifolds with a boundary. We modify the original Lagrangian in such a way that it preserves half the supersymmetry…

We study (1+1)-dimensional non-linear sigma models whose target space is the flag manifold $U(N)\over U(N_1)\times U(N_2)\cdots U(N_m)$, with a specific focus on the special case $U(N)/U(1)^{N}$. These generalize the well-known…

In this work we study the three-dimensional ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric Chern-Simons-matter model in a noncommutative space-time. We construct the action of the noncommutative $U(N)$ non-Abelian model in terms of explicit ${\cal N}=2$…

We present a functional Schr\"{o}dinger picture formalism of the (1+1)-dimensional $O(N) $ nonlinear sigma model. The energy density has been calculated to two-loop order using the wave functional of a gaussian form, and from which the…

We define basics of $(4,4)\;\; 2D$ harmonic superspace with two independent sets of $SU(2)$ harmonic variables and apply it to construct new superfield actions of $(4,4)$ supersymmetric two-dimensional sigma models with torsion and mutually…

Using (1,0) superfield methods, we determine the general scalar potential consistent with off-shell (p,0) supersymmetry and (1,1) supersymmetry in two-dimensional non-linear sigma models with torsion. We also present an extended superfield…

Using a non-perturbative functional method, where the quantum fluctuations are gradually set up,it is shown that the interaction of a N=1 Wess-Zumino model in 2+1 dimensions does not get renormalized. This result is valid in the framework…

A construction of supersymmetric field-theoretical models in non-commutative geometry is reviewed. The underlying superstructure of the models is encoded in $osp(2,2)$ superalgebra.

Supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models have target spaces that carry interesting geometry. The geometry is richer the more supersymmetries the model has. The study of models with two dimensional world sheets is particularly rewarding since…

In this paper we study a family of nonlinear $\sigma$-models in which the target space is the super manifold $H^{2|2N}$. These models generalize Zirnbauer's $H^{2|2}$ nonlinear $\sigma$-model which has a number of special features for which…

We investigate the most general non(anti)commutative geometry in N=1 four-dimensional superspace, invariant under the classical (i.e., undeformed) supertranslation group. We find that a nontrivial non(anti)commutative superspace geometry…

We consider two dimensional non linear sigma models on few symmetric superspaces, which are supergroup manifolds of coset type. For those spaces where one loop beta function vanishes, two loop beta function is calculated and is shown to be…

The SU(3)/U(1) x U(1) harmonic variables are used in the harmonic-superspace representation of the D=4, N=3 SYM-equations. The harmonic superfield equations of motion in the simple non-covariant gauge contain the nilpotent harmonic analytic…
