The $\mathcal{N}=2$ Landau--Ginzburg description provides a strongly interacting Lagrangian realization of an $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theory. It is conjectured that one such example is given by the two-dimensional…
We propose a new reduction mechanism which allows one to construct n-particle (super)conformal theories with pairwise interaction starting from a composite system involving n(n-1)/2+1 copies of the ordinary (super)conformal mechanics.…
I review a particular class of physical applications of Logarithmic Conformal Field Theory in strings propagating in changing (not necessarily conformal) backgrounds, namely D-brane recoil in flat or time-dependent cosmological backgrounds.…

The structure of integrable field theories in the presence of jump defects is discussed in terms of boundary functions under the Lagrangian formalism. Explicit examples of bosonic and fermionic theories are considered. In particular, the…
We study the simplest examples of minimal string theory whose worldsheet description is the unitary (p,q) minimal model coupled to two-dimensional gravity (Liouville field theory). In the Liouville sector, we show that four-point…
A super-conformal map and a minimal surface are factored into a product of two maps by modeling the Euclidean four-space and the complex Euclidean plane on the set of all quaternions. One of these two maps is a holomorphic map or a…
We argue that the celestial conformal field theory exhibits patterns of a logarithmic conformal field theory. We uncover a Jordan block structure involving the celestial stress tensor and its logarithmic partner, a composite operator built…
Quasiminimal structures play an important role in non-elementary categoricity. In this paper we explore possibilities of constructing quasiminimal models of a given first-order theory. We present several constructions with increasing…
We present a definition of a (super)-modular functor which includes certain interesting cases that previous definitions do not allow. We also introduce a notion of topological twisting of a modular functor, and construct formally a…
We study the possibility of constructing Lorentz-violating supersymmetric quantum field theories under the assumption that these theories have to be described by lagrangians which are renormalizable by weighted power counting. Our…

Supersymmetric models with Lorentz violation can be formulated in superspace. Two theories based on the Wess-Zumino model are discussed. A compactification of superspace can be employed to understand the chiral superfield that arises in the…
Representations of four-dimensional superconformal groups on harmonic superfields are discussed. It is argued that any representation can be given as a superfield on many superflag manifolds. Representations on analytic superspaces do not…
