In this paper the gauge embedding procedure of dualization is reassessed through a deeper analysis of the mutual equivalence of vector field models of more generic forms, explicitly, a general modified massive gauge-breaking extension of…
We find a Chern-Simons propagator on the ball with the chiral boundary condition. We use it to study perturbatively Chern-Simons boundary conditions related to 2-dim $\sigma$-models and to Poisson-Lie T-duality. In particular, we find their…
We generalize Schwinger's original mass formula to the case of an additional isosinglet mixing with the nonet mesons. We then make further generalization to either (i) an arbitrary number of additional isosinglets mixing with nonet mesons,…
This thesis deals with a class of integrable field theories called models with twist function. The main examples of such models are integrable non-linear sigma models, such as the Principal Chiral Model, and their deformations. A first…
In this work we apply different duality techniques, both the dual projection, based on the soldering formalism and the master action, in order to obtain and study the dual description of the Carroll-Field-Jackiw model \cite{cfj}, a theory…
Solutions of the superspace Schwinger-Dyson equations, describing mass generation and chiral symmetry breaking in supersymmetric gauge theory, need not be constrained to vanish by no-renormalization theorems, nor by special choices of gauge…
We still extend the large class of Dirac operators decribing massless fermions on the lattice found recently, only requiring that such operators decompose into Weyl operators. After deriving general relations and constructions of operators,…
We consider the general free field theory such that system of equations of motion includes a subsystem with a special property. If the subsystem is considered by itself, it would be a topological field theory having no local degrees of…
Previous results on fermion chirality-flipping four-point functions are extended to $SU(N)$ gauge theories. The problem is purely non-perturbative, and it is approached by truncating the Schwinger-Dyson hierarchy. The large-$N$ limit also…
In the Maxwell--Chern-Simons theory coupled to $N_f$ flavors of 4-component fermions (or even number of 2-component fermions) we construct the gauge-covariant effective potential written in terms of two order parameters which are able to…
A class of two-dimensional sigma models interpolating between $CP^1$ and the $SU(2)$ principal chiral model is discussed. We add the Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten term and examine the renormalization group flow of the two coupling constants…
A manifestly gauge invariant formulation of chiral theories with fermions on the lattice is developed. It combines SLAC lattice derivative \cite{DWY}, \cite{ACS}, \cite{S} and generalized Pauli-Villars regularization \cite{FS}. The theory…
The 3d $A$-model is a two-dimensional approach to the computation of supersymmetric observables of three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories. In principle, it allows us to compute half-BPS partition functions on any…
A field-enlarging transformation in the chiral electrodynamics is performed. This introduces an additional gauge symmetry to the model that is unitary and anomaly-free and allows for comparison of different models discussed in the…
Gauge theories are formulated on the noncommutative two-sphere. These theories have only finite number of degrees of freedom, nevertheless they exhibit both the gauge symmetry and the SU(2) "Poincar\'e" symmetry of the sphere. In…
We construct integrability-preserving deformations of the integrable $\sigma$-model coupling together $N$ copies of the Principal Chiral Model. These deformed theories are obtained using the formalism of affine Gaudin models, by applying…
We extend previously proposed generalized gauge theory formulation of Chern-Simons type and topological Yang-Mills type actions into Yang-Mills type actions. We formulate gauge fields and Dirac-K\"ahler matter fermions by all degrees of…
We study observables and deformations of generalized Chern-Simons action and show how to apply these results to maximally supersymmetric gauge theories. We describe a construction of large class of deformations based on some results on the…
We consider the gauged model of Siegel type chiral boson with a Lorentz non-covariant mass-like term for the gauge fields which is found to be equivalent to the chiral Schwinger model with Faddeevian anomaly when it is described in terms of…
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…
