We describe symmetry structure of a general singular theory (theory with constraints in the Hamiltonian formulation), and, in particular, we relate the structure of gauge transformations with the constraint structure. We show that any…
We present a comprehensive discussion of the consistency of the effective quantum field theory of a single $Z_2$ symmetric scalar field. The theory is constructed from a bare Euclidean action which at a scale much greater than the…
These lectures study two correspondences between gauge theories and integrable many-body systems. The first arises from infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian reduction and relates gauge-theoretic dynamics directly to Calogero--Moser-type systems…
In the low-energy limit, M-theory compactified on S1/Z2 is formulated in terms of Bianchi identities with sources localized at orbifold singularities and anomaly-cancelling counterterms to the Wilson effective Lagrangian. Compactifying to…
