In quantizing gravity based on stochastic quantization method, the stochastic time plays a role of the proper time. We study 2D and 4D Euclidean quantum gravity in this context. By applying stochastic quantization method to real symmetric…
We develop a general setting for the quantization of linear bosonic and fermionic field theories subject to local gauge invariance and show how standard examples such as linearized Yang-Mills theory and linearized general relativity fit…
We discuss a renormalization procedure for a classical bosonic string coupled to a massless scalar field. The classical equations of motion for this system are non-renormalizable if the number of spacetime dimensions exceeds four. Our…
In this manuscript we study the superstring theory with an Abelian worldsheet gauge field. The components of the gauge field appear as a space and a time coordinates. We call them "fictitious coordinates". The worldsheet supersymmetry and…
We consider the (2, 0) supersymmetric theory of tensor multiplets and self-dual strings in six space-time dimensions. Space-time diffeomorphisms that leave the string world-sheet invariant appear as gauge transformations on the normal…
We present a holomorphic version of the bosonic string in the formalism of quantum field theory developed by Costello and collaborators. In this paper we focus on the case in which space-time is flat and construct a one-loop exact…
It is shown that the models of 2D Liouville Gravity, 2D Black Hole- and $R^2$-Gravity are {\em embedded} in the Katanaev-Volovich model of 2D NonEinsteinian Gravity. Different approaches to the formulation of a quantum theory for the above…
We study worldsheet conformal invariance for bosonic string propagating in a curved background using the hamiltonian formalism. In order to formulate the problem in a background independent manner we first rewrite the worldsheet theory in a…
A homogeneous anisotropic four dimensional spacetime with Lorentzian signature is constructed from an ungauged WZW model based on a non-semisimple Lie group. The associated non-linear $\sigma $-model describes string propagation in an…
We propose a new approach for deriving the string field equations from a general sigma model on the world sheet. This approach leads to an equation which combines some of the attractive features of both the renormalization group method and…
It is well-known that the beta functions on a string worldsheet correspond to the target space equations of motion, e.g. the Einstein equations. We show that the BPS equations, i.e. the conditions of vanishing supersymmetry variations of…
Lorentz covariance is the fundamental principle of every relativistic field theory which insures consistent physical descriptions. Even if the space-time is noncommutative, field theories on it should keep Lorentz covariance. In this paper,…
The 1+1 dimensional bosonised Schwinger model has been studied in a noncommutative scenario. The theory in the reduced phase space exhibits a massive boson interacting with a background. The emergence of this background interaction is a…
We determine the most general form of the antisymmetric $H$-field tensor derived from a purely time-dependent potential that is admitted by all possible spatially homogeneous cosmological models in 3+1-dimensional low-energy bosonic string…
Supergravity in 2+1 dimensions has a set of first class constraints that result in two Bosonic and one Fermionic gauge invariances. When one uses Faddeev-Popov quantization, these gauge invariances result in four Fermionic scalar ghosts and…
In a general superstring vacuum configuration, the `internal' space (sector) varies in spacetime. When this variation is non-trivial only in two space-like dimensions, the vacuum contains static cosmic strings with finite energy per unit…
The quantum algebra of observables of the massive closed bosonic string in 1+3 dimensions has been developed so far in the rest frame of the string. In this paper a method to write this algebra in a manifestly Lorentz covariant form is…
It has recently been shown that a set of the generalized type IIB supergravity equations follows from the requirement of kappa symmetry of the type IIB Green-Schwarz superstring theory defined on an arbitrary background. In this paper, we…
A modification of the canonical quantization procedure for systems with time-dependent second-class constraints is discussed and applied to the quantization of the relativistic particle in a plane wave. The time dependence of constraints…
In this work, I consider the light-front quantization of a class of Nielsen-Olesen (Bogomol'nyi) models in two-space one-time dimensions in the so-called symmetry phase using the Hamiltonian, path integral and BRST formulations.
