The methods developed by authors are applied to some reductions of BBGKY hierarchy, namely, various examples of Vlasov-like systems which are important both for fusion modeling and for particular physical problems related to plasma/beam…
A range of bosonic models can be expressed as (sometimes generalized) $\sigma$-models, with equations of motion coming from a selfduality constraint. We show that in D=2, this is easily extended to supersymmetric cases, in a superspace…
We present arguments in favor of the idea that supersymmetric sigma models with compact symmetric K\"ahler spaces as target manifolds have a second-order phase transition in four dimensions. When applied to electroweak symmetry breaking,…
We study constrained generalized Killing spinors over the metric cone and cylinder of a (pseudo-)Riemannian manifold, developing a toolkit which can be used to investigate certain problems arising in supersymmetric flux compactifications of…
One-dimensional sigma-models with N supersymmetries are considered. For conventional supersymmetries there must be N-1 complex structures satisfying a Clifford algebra and the constraints on the target space geometry can be formulated in…
We use a novel method based on the semi-classical analysis of sigma-models to describe the phenomenon of strong localization in quasi one-dimensional conductors, obtaining the full distribution of transmission eigenvalues. For several…
An introduction is given to some selected aspects of noncommutative geometry. Simple examples in this context are provided by finite sets and lattices. As an application, it is explained how the nonlinear Toda lattice and a discrete time…

This Ph.D. thesis investigates effective field and string theories in which supersymmetry is realized and broken in various ways. Chapter 1 addresses effective theories with nonlinearly realized supersymmetry, constructed using the…
N = 2 supersymmetry in four space-time dimensions is intimately related to hyperkahler and quaternionic Kahler geometries. On one hand, the target spaces for rigid supersymmetric sigma-models are necessarily hyperkahler manifolds. On the…
This PhD thesis aims at combining the framework of noncommutative geometry and supersymmetry. A particular class of non-commutative geometries called almost-commutative geometries can be used to describe particle theories. This thesis…
We reconsider differential geometry from the point of view of the quantum theory of non-relativistic spinning particles, which provides examples of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. This enables us to encode geometrical structure in…
Common models describing magnetotransport properties of periodically modulated two--dimensional systems often either directly start from a semiclassical approach or give results well conceivable within the semiclassical framework. Recently,…
This is a short review of the relation between the Reduced Models and Noncommutative Yang-Mills Theories (NCYM) based on the work done in collaboration with J. Ambjorn, J. Nishimura and R. Szabo. Contents: 1.Twisted Eguchi-Kawai model…
Strongly coupled semi-direct gauge mediation models of supersymmetry breaking through massive mediators with standard model charges are investigated by means of composite degrees of freedom. Sizable mediation is realized to generate the…
We construct the first D = 4 Minkowski string theory vacua of flux compactification which are (i) chiral, (ii) free of NSNS and RR tadpoles, and (iii) N = 1 or N = 0 supersymmetric. In the latter case SUSY is softly broken by the fluxes,…

Unconventional magnetism represents a paradigm shift in condensed matter physics, effectively bridging the fast, high-density advantages of antiferromagnets with the facile read-write capability of ferromagnets. Recent developments in spin…
