Using the topological techniques developed in an earlier paper with Vafa, a field theory action is constructed for any open string with critical N=2 worldsheet superconformal invariance. Instead of the Chern-Simons-like action found by…
The newly developed Gorkov-Green's function approach represents a promising path to the ab initio description of medium-mass open-shell nuclei. We discuss the implementation of the method at second order with a two-body interaction, with…
In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem of a higher-order $\mu$-Camassa-Holm equation. By employing the Green's function of $(\mu-\partial_{x}^{2})^{-2}$, we obtain the explicit formula of the inverse function…
A gauge-invariant mass term for nonabelian gauge fields in two dimensions can be expressed as the Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) action. Hard thermal loops in the gauge theory in four dimensions at finite temperatures generate a screening mass…
Since the SU(n) gauge theory with massive gauge bosons has been proven to be renormalisable we reinvestigate the renormalisability of the SU$_L$(2) $\times$ U$_Y$(1) electroweak theory with massive W Z bosons. We expound that with the…
We show the equivalence between Stuckelberg and Wess-Zumino methods of restoration of gauge symmetries of the anomalous, Abelian, effective action, in arbitrary even dimensions D=2k. We present dual version of Wess-Zumino terms with the…
We show the global well-posedness for the two-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in $H^{s}({\mathbb{R}^2})$ when $\frac{11}{13}<s<1$ via the I-method. Additionally, local well-posedness for the symmetrized ZK equation in $…
We explore the quantum properties of self-dual gravity formulated as a large $N$ two-dimensional WZW sigma model. Using a non-trivial classical background, we show that a $(2,2)$ space-time is generated. The theory contains an infinite…
Let $G(z)$ be the Green function on the flat torus $E_{\tau}=\mathbb{C}/(\mathbb{Z}+\mathbb{Z}\tau)$ with the singularity at $0$. Lin and Wang (Ann. Math. 2010) proved that $G(z)$ has either $3$ or $5$ critical points (depending on the…
We show that $N=8$ {\it self-dual} supergravity theory, which is the consistent background for $N=2$ closed superstring theory in $2+2\-$dimensions, can accommodate the recently discovered two-dimensional dilaton gravity black hole…
We express the correlation functions of the SU(2) WZW conformal field theory on Riemann surfaces of genus >1 by finite dimensional integrals.
In this work we propose a new 2+1 theory of gravity. We start with a modification of Chern-Simons 2+1 gravity. By introducing a vector field $\Phi$ to the usual composition of the vierbein and connection, we derive a new action that…
We consider supergravity configuration of D5 branes wrapped on supersymmetric 2-cycles and use it to calculate one-point and two-point Green functions of some special operators in N=2 super Yang-Mills theory. We show that Green functions…
We present a finite energy topological Z(2) vortex solution in a 2+1 dimensional SO(3) gauge field theory minimally coupled to a matrix valued Higgs field. The vortex carries a Z(2) magnetic charge and obeys a modulo two addition property.…
In this work, based on the Petrov-Diakonov representation of the Wilson loop average W in the SU(2) Yang-Mills theory, together with the Cho-Fadeev-Niemi decomposition, we present a natural framework to discuss possible ideas underlying…
A new derivation of the five-dimensional Myers-Perry black-hole metric as a 2-soliton solution on a non-flat background is presented. It is intended to be an illustration of how the well-known Belinski-Zakharov method can be applied to find…
An effective action for $N=1$, 2d-induced supergravity in the chiral gauge is obtained on a compact super Riemann surface without boundary and of arbitrary genus.
We provide algorithmic versions of the Polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa theorem of Gowers, Green, Manners, and Tao (Ann. of Math., 2025). In particular, we give a polynomial-time algorithm that, given a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n$ with…
The aim of this paper is two fold. We derive an integral representation for the generalized 2D Zernike polynomials which are of independent interest and give the explicit expression of the action of the Cauchy transform on them.
The Polyakov's "soldering procedure" which shows how two-dimensional diffeomorphisms can be obtained from SL(2,R) gauge transformations is discussed using the free-field representation of SL(2,R) current algebra. Using this formalism, the…
