We consider a BRST approach to G/H coset WZNW models, {\it i.e.} a formulation in which the coset is defined by a BRST condition. We will give the precise ingrediences needed for this formulation. Then we will prove the equivalence of this…
The charges of D-branes in Kazama-Suzuki coset models are analyzed. We provide the calculation of the corresponding twisted equivariant K-theory, and in the case of Grassmannian cosets, su(n+1)/u(n), compare this to the charge lattices that…
This article studies some features of quantum field theories with internal supersymmetry, focusing mainly on 2-dimensional non-linear sigma models which take values in a coset superspace. It is discussed how BRST operators from the target…
The topological coset model appraoch to non-critical string models is summarized. The action of a topological twisted ${G\over H}$ coset model ($rank\ H = rank\ G$) is written down. A ``topological coset algebra" is derived and compared…
We study global aspects of N=2 Kazama-Suzuki coset models by investigating topological G/H Kazama-Suzuki models in a Lagrangian framework based on gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models. We first generalize Witten's analysis of the holomorphic…
We consider the supersymmetric WZNW model gauged in a manifestly supersymmetric way. We find the BRST charge and the necessary condition for nilpotency. In the BRST framework the model proves to be a Lagrangian formulation of the…
There are many applications in gauge theories where the usually employed framework involving gauge-dependent Green's functions leads to considerable problems. In order to overcome the difficulties invariably tied to gauge dependence, we…

We study the modifications of the generalized permutation branes defined in hep-th/0509153, which are required to give rise to the non-factorizable branes on a product of cosets $G_{k_1}/H\times G_{k_2}/H$. We find that for $k_1\neq k_2$…
We compute exactly the generating function of a supersymmetric non-linear sigma model describ-ing random matrices belonging to the unitary class. Although an arbitrary source explicitly breaksthe supersymmetry, a careful analysis of the…
The analysis of D-branes in coset models G/H provides a natural extension of recent studies on branes in WZW-theory and it has various interesting applications to physically relevant models. In this work we develop a reduction procedure…
We develop the BRST approach for all massless integer and half-integer higher spins in 4D Minkowski space, using the two component spinor nota- tion and develop the Lagrangian formulation for supersymmetric higher spin models. It is shown…
We present a derivation of abelian and non-abelian bosonization in a path integral setting by expressing the generating functional for current-current correlation functions as a product of a $G/G$-coset model, which is dynamically trivial,…
We continue investigation of soft breaking of BRST symmetry in the Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) formalism beyond regularizations like dimensional ones used in our previous paper [JHEP 1110 (2011) 043, arXiv:1108.4820 [hep-th]]. We generalize a…
We provide a systematic BRST formalism for the soft-collinear effective theory describing interactions of soft and collinear degrees of freedom in the presence of a hard interaction. In particular, we develop full BRST symmetry…

We give a detailed review of the construction of gauge invariant Lagrangians for free and interacting higher spin fields using the BRST approach developed over the past few years.
We discuss 2-dimmensional non-linear sigma-models on the Kaehler manifold G/H in the first order formalisim. Using the Berkovits method we explicitly construct the G-symmetry currents and primaries, when G/H are irreducible. It is a variant…
In the BRST-BFV scheme for noncommutative D-branes with constant NS $B$-field, introducing ghost degrees of freedom we construct the gauge fixed Hamiltonian and corresponding effective Lagrangian invariant under nilpotent BRST charge. It is…
In this paper we analyse the ABJM theory in ${\cal N}=1$ superspace. Firstly we study the linear and non-linear BRST transformations for the ABJM theory. Then we derive the finite field dependent version of these BRST (FFBRST)…
