We develop a technique that solders the dual aspects of some symmetry following from the bosonisation of two distinct fermionic models, thereby leading to new results which cannot be otherwise obtained. Exploiting this technique, the two…
In this paper, I develop the Soldering formalism in a new domain - the noncommutative planar field theories. The Soldering mechanism fuses two distinct theories showing opposite or complimentary properties of some symmetry, taking into…

In this paper we display a direct and physically attractive derivation of the screening contribution to the interaction potential in the Chiral Schwinger model and generalized Maxwell-Chern-Simons gauge theory. It is shown that these…
In two dimensions the simple addition of two chiral bosons of opposite chiralities does not lead to a full massless scalar field. Similarly, in three dimensions the addition of two Maxwell-Chern-Simons fields of opposite helicities $\pm 1$…
We develop a technique that solders the dual aspects of some symmetry. Using this technique it is possible to combine two theories with such symmetries to yield a new effective theory. Some applications in two and three dimensional…
The direct sum of a couple of Maxwell-Chern-Simons (MCS) gauge theories of opposite helicities $\pm 1$ does not lead to a Proca theory in $D=2+1$, although both theories share the same spectrum. However, it is known that by adding an…
In the generalized Schwinger model the vector and axial vector currents are linearly coupled, with arbitrary coefficients, to the gauge connection. Therefore it represents an interesting example of a theory where both gauge anomalies and…
We propose bosonised expressions for the chiral Schwinger models in four dimensions. Then, in complete analogy with the two dimensional case, we show the soldering of two bosonised chiral Schwinger models with opposite chiralities to yield…
I shall recall a number of solutions to the Schwinger model in different gauges, having different boundary conditions and using different quantization surfaces. I shall discuss various properties of these solutions emphasizing the degrees…
We demonstrate a universal mechanism of a class of instabilities in infrared regions for massless Abelian $p$-form gauge theories with topological interactions, which we call generalized chiral instabilities. Such instabilities occur in the…
We show how to systematically derive the complete set of the gauge transformations of different types of the gauge invariant models, which are the chiral Schwinger and CP$^1$ with Chern-Simons term, in the Lagrangian Formalism.
A family of theories which interpolate between vector and chiral Schwinger models is studied on the two--sphere $S^{2}$. The conflict between the loss of gauge invariance and global geometrical properties is solved by introducing a fixed…
The Schwinger model is studied with a new one - parameter class of gauge invariant regularizations that generalizes the usual point - splitting or Fujikawa schemes. The spectrum is found to be qualitatively unchanged, except for a limiting…
We develop a systematic method of obtaining duality symmetric actions in different dimensions. This technique is applied for the quantum mechanical harmonic oscillator, the scalar field theory in two dimensions and the Maxwell theory in…
We study a new mechanism for the electromagnetic gauging of chiral bosons showing that new possibilities emerge for the interacting theory of chiral scalars. We introduce a chirally coupled gauge field necessary to mod out the degree of…
We compute the form of the Lagrangian of N=1 supersymmetric theories with gauged axion symmetries. It turns out that there appear generalized Chern-Simons terms that were not considered in previous superspace formulations of general N=1…
We study the soldering of two Siegel chiral bosons into one scalar field in a gravitational background.
The soldering procedure has been for the first time generalized to the case of spin-3/2 fermionic theories. We have demonstrated that the fermionic part of the so called "New Topologically Massive Supergravity" theory, which is of third…
