General boundary conditions ("branes") for the Poisson sigma model are studied. They turn out to be labeled by coisotropic submanifolds of the given Poisson manifold. The role played by these boundary conditions both at the classical and at…

A carefully motivated symmetric variant of the Poisson bracket in ordinary (not Grassmann) phase space variables is shown to satisfy identities which are in algebraic correspondence with the anticommutation postulates for quantized Fermion…

This paper is devoted to the study of the Hamiltonian formulation of non-linear sigma models on supercoset targets. We calculate the Poisson brackets of left-invariant currents. Then we introduce the Hamiltonian of the system and determine…

We construct a sheaf of N=2 vertex algebras naturally associated to any Poisson manifold. The relation of this sheaf to the chiral de Rham complex is discussed. We reprove the result about the existence of two commuting N = 2 superconformal…

This is a full revised version of the previous same titled article. The 2-cocycle of the central extension of the current algebra on the three sphere is taken the place of a new quarternion valued one, that is defined by the boundary Dirac…

The extension structure of the 2-dimensional current algebra of non-linear sigma models is analysed by introducing Kostant Sternberg $(L,M)$ systems. It is found that the algebra obeys a two step extension by abelian ideals. The second step…

In general relativity as well as gauge theories, non-trivial symmetries can appear at boundaries. In the presence of radiation some of the symmetries are not Hamiltonian vector fields, hence the definition of charges for the symmetries…

We introduce a finite-dimensional algebra that controls the possible boundary conditions of a conformal field theory. For theories that are obtained by modding out a Z_2 symmetry (corresponding to a so-called D_odd-type, or half-integer…

We construct polynomial Poisson algebras of observables for the classical Euler-Calogero-Moser (ECM) models. The conserved Hamiltonians and symmetry algebras derived in a previous work are subsets of these algebras. We define their linear,…

The present monograph explores the correspondence between quantum and classical mechanics in the particular context of spin systems, that is, SU(2)-symmetric mechanical systems. Here, a detailed presentation of quantum spin-j systems, with…

In this paper we extend the standard differential geometric theory of Hamiltonian dynamics to noncommutative spaces, beginning with symplectic forms. Derivations on the algebra are used instead of vector fields, and interior products and…

We study the Poisson sigma model which can be viewed as a topological string theory. Mainly we concentrate our attention on the Poisson sigma model over a group manifold G with a Poisson-Lie structure. In this case the flat connection…

These notes present an introduction to an analytic version of deformation quantization. The central point is to study algebras of physical observables and their irreducible representations. In classical mechanics one deals with real Poisson…

Quantum M-theory is formulated using the current algebra technique. The current algebra is based on a Kac-Moody algebra rather than usual finite dimensional Lie algebra. Specifically, I study the $E_{11}$ Kac-Moody algebra that was shown…

We show that the space R^n x gl(n,R) with a certain antisymmetric bracket operation contains all n-dimensional Lie algebras. The bracket does not satisfy the Jacobi identity, but it does satisfy it for subalgebras which are isotropic under…

Classical W-symmetry is globally parametrized by the Grassmannian Manifold which is associated with the non-relativistic fermions. We give the bosonization rule which defines the natural higher coordinates system to describe the W-geometry.…

We construct the classical W-algebras for some non-abelian Toda systems associated with the Lie groups GL(2n,R) and Sp(n,R). We start with the set of characteristic integrals and find the Poisson brackets for the corresponding Hamiltonian…

A hybrid framework is developed that highlights and unifies the most important aspects of the Noether correspondence between symmetries and conserved integrals in Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics. Several main results are shown: (1) a…

The polysymplectic $(n+1)$-form is introduced as an analogue of the symplectic form for the De Donder-Weyl polymomentum Hamiltonian formulation of field theory. The corresponding Poisson brackets on differential forms are constructed. The…

This is a short presentation of some classical results on finite dimensional complex Lie algebras (classification of nilpotent Lie algebras, deformations and perturbations, contractions and rigidity). We present some applications to…
