We consider an abelian gauge theory with spontaneously broken symmetry containing a scalar-fermion coupling which is non-linear in the Higgs field. Although in the unitary gauge it reduces to a pure Yukawa term, suggesting that the theory…
We analyze the bound on gauge couplings $e\geq m/m_p$, suggested by Arkani-Hamed et.al. We show this bound can be derived from simple semi-classical considerations and holds in spacetime dimensions greater than or equal to four. Non abelian…
We investigate the one-loop renormalisability of a general N=1/2 supersymmetric gauge theory coupled to chiral matter, and show the existence of an N=1/2 supersymmetric SU(N)xU(1) theory which is renormalisable at one loop.
Various gauge invariant but non-Yang-Mills dynamical models are discussed: Pr\'ecis of Chern-Simons theory in (2+1)-dimensions and reduction to (1+1)-dimensional B-F theories; gauge theories for (1+1)-dimensional gravity-matter…
The importance of lattice gauge field interpolation for our recent non-perturbative formulation of chiral gauge theory is emphasized. We illustrate how the requisite properties are satisfied by our recent four-dimensional non-abelian…
A generalization of Chern-Simons gauge theory is formulated in any dimension and arbitrary gauge group where gauge fields and gauge parameters are differential forms of any degree. The quaternion algebra structure of this formulation is…
Here is summarized the gauge theoretical formulation and quantization of two popular gravity theories in (1+1)-dimensional time.
We address the subject of chiral anomalies in two and four dimensional theories. Ambiguities associated with the $\gamma_5$ algebra within divergent integrals are identified, even though the physical dimension is not altered in the process…
The axial anomaly of the noncommutative U(1) gauge theory is calculated by a number of methods and compared with the commutative one. It is found to be given by the corresponding Chern class.
Chiral symmetry breaking parameters are calculated in quenched SU(2) gauge theory and with Abelian gauge fields projected in maximal Abelian gauge and in field strength gauge. Maximal Abelian gauge projected fields lead to chiral condensate…
We propose a six-dimensional regularization of four dimensional chiral gauge theories. We consider a massive Dirac fermion in six dimensions with two different operators having domain-wall profiles in the fifth and the sixth directions,…
Abelian quiver gauge theories provide nonsupersymmetric candidates for the conformality approach to physics beyond the standard model. Written as ${\cal N}=0$, $U(N)^n$ gauge theories, however, they have mixed $U(1)_p U(1)_q^2$ and $U(1)_p…
The overlap formulation of regulated vectorial and chiral gauge theories is reviewed. Ostensibly new constructions, based on the Ginsparg-Wilson relation are essentially just overlap with new notation. At present there exists no…
There exist many four dimensional integrable theories. They include self-dual gauge and gravity theories, all their extended supersymmetric generalisations, as well the full (non-self-dual) N=3 super Yang-Mills equations. We review the…
We study a class of four-dimensional N=1 superconformal field theories obtained from the six-dimensional (1,0) theory, on M5-branes on C^2/Z_k orbifold singularity, compactified on a Riemann surface. This produces various quiver gauge…
The bulk quantization method is used for regularizing a conventional four dimensional theory of massless fermions coupled to an external non-Abelian gauge field and for subsequently evaluating the associated Ward identity. As a result one…
