We develop a theory describing the superfield extension of the 2-form field coupled to usual chiral and real scalar superfield and find the one-loop K\"{a}hlerian effective potential in this theory.
We construct a non-Abelian gauge theory of chiral 2-forms (self-dual gauge fields) in 6 dimensions with a spatial direction compactified on a circle of radius R. It has the following two properties. (1) It reduces to the Yang-Mills theory…
We consider the Einstein-Hilbert action without cosmological constant in 5-dimensions and implement the Kaluza-Klein (KK) reduction by compactifying the fifth direction on a circle of small but finite radius. For non-zero compactification…
Experimental limits on the violation of four-dimensional Lorentz invariance imply that noncommutativity among ordinary spacetime dimensions must be small. Noncommutativity among extra, compactified spatial dimensions, however, is far less…
In this work, we explore the de Broglie-Bohm Quantum Cosmology for a stiff matter, $p = \rho$, anisotropic n-dimensional Universe. One begins by considering a Gaussian wave function for the Universe, which depends on the momenta parameters…
We consider theories in which the Standard Model gauge fields propagate in extra dimensions whose size is around the electroweak scale. The Standard Model quarks and leptons may either be localized to a brane or propagate in the bulk. This…
This paper, the second of a series, deals with the function space of all smooth K\"ahler metrics in any given closed complex manifold $M$ in a fixed cohomology class. The previous result of the second author \cite{chen991} showed that the…
We study invariant pseudo-K\"ahler structures on a solvmanifold $G$ such that the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is almost abelian, that is $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{h}\rtimes\mathbb{R}$, with $\mathfrak{h}$ abelian; comparing with the…
The Mabuchi energy is an interesting geometric functional on the space of K\"ahler metrics that plays a crucial r\^ole in the study of the geometry of K\"ahler manifolds. We show that this functional, as well as other related geometric…
A guiding principle to determine the Kaehler potential in the low energy effective theory of the supersymmetric chiral gauge theory with no flat direction is proposed. The guiding principle is applied to the SU(5) gauge theory with chiral…

The paper is part of an attempt of understanding non-K\"ahler threefolds. We start by looking at compact complex non-K\"ahler threefolds with algebraic dimension two and admitting locally conformally K\"ahler metrics. Under certain…
A hyperK\"ahler potential is a function rho that is a K\"ahler potential for each complex structure compatible with the hyperK\"ahler structure. Nilpotent orbits in a complex simple Lie algebra are known to carry hyperK\"ahler metrics…
