Current superalgebras and corresponding Schwinger terms in 1 and 3 space dimensions are studied. This is done by generalizing the quantization of chiral fermions in an external Yang-Mills potential to the case of a Z_2-graded potential…
We study dynanics of $SU(N-4)$ gauge theories with fermions in rank-2 symmetric tensor and $N$ anti-fundamental representations, by perturbing supersymmetric theories with anomaly-mediated supersymmetry breaking. We find the $SU(N)\times…
We have examined the deformation of a generic non-Abelian gauge theory obtained by replacing its Lie group by the corresponding quantum group. This deformed gauge theory has more degrees of freedom than the theory from which it is derived.…

In order to clarify the connection between {\it current} and {\it constituent} quarks (of u,d,s flavors), several authors have used the lightlike chiral $SU(3)\otimes SU(3)$ algebra as a central concept. This literature is reviewed here…
We reconsider canonical quantization of the rotating soliton in the SU(3) Chiral Quark-Soliton Model. We show that at the level of 1/N_c, in contrast to the SU(2) version of the model, there appear terms which spoil the commutation rules of…
We consider Kogut-Susskind fermions (also known as staggered fermions) in a $(3+1)$-dimensional Hamiltonian formalism and examine a chiral transformation and its associated chiral anomaly. The Hamiltonian of the massless Kogut-Susskind…
