We formulate the WT identity for proper vertices in a simple and compact form $\partial \Gamma / {\partial \theta } =0 $ in a superspace formulation of gauge theories proposed earlier. We show this WT identity (together with a subsidiary…
In this note we construct an infinite-dimensional Lie group structure on the group of vertical bisections of a regular Lie groupoid. We then identify the Lie algebra of this group and discuss regularity properties (in the sense of Milnor)…
We obtain new invariant Einstein metrics on the compact Lie group $\SU(N)$ which are not naturally reductive. This is achieved by using the generalized flag manifold $G/K=\SU(k_1+\cdots +k_p)/\s(\U(k_1)\times\cdots\times\U(k_p))$ and by…
A manifestly invariant renormalization scheme of N=1 nonabelian supersymmetric gauge theories is proposed.
We study the perturbative quantization of gauge theories and gravity. Our investigations start with the geometry of spacetimes and particle fields. Then we discuss the various Lagrange densities of (effective) Quantum General Relativity…
In the present work, multiplicative renormalization \cite{dixon} for Yang-Mills theories is reviewed. While this subject is not new, it is suggested that a clear understanding of these methods leads to a systematic way for interpreting the…
We introduce a notion of metric on a Lie groupoid, compatible with multiplication, and we study its properties. We show that many families of Lie groupoids admit such metrics, including the important class of proper Lie groupoids. The…
We consider two different versions of gauged WZW theories with the exceptional groups and gauged with any of theirs null subgroups. By constructing suitable automorphism, we establish the equivalence of these two theories. On the other hand…
We raise the issue whether gauge theories, that are not renormalizable in the usual power-counting sense, are nevertheless renormalizable in the modern sense that all divergences can be cancelled by renormalization of the infinite number of…
We report on the Hopf algebraic description of renormalization theory of quantum electrodynamics. The Ward-Takahashi identities are implemented as linear relations on the (commutative) Hopf algebra of Feynman graphs of QED. Compatibility of…
In these notes the exact renormalization group formulation of the scalar theory is briefly reviewed. This regularization scheme is then applied to supersymmetric theories. In case of a supersymmetric gauge theory it is also shown how to…
We introduce the concept of general gauge theory which includes Yang-Mills models. In the framework of the causal approach and show that the anomalies can appear only in the vacuum sector of the identities obtained from the gauge invariance…
Covariance of the one-loop renormalization group equations with respect to Poisson-Lie T-plurality of sigma models is discussed. The role of ambiguities in renormalization group equations of Poisson-Lie sigma models with truncated matrices…
We give a wilsonian formulation of non-abelian gauge theories explicitly consistent with axial gauge Ward identitities. The issues of unitarity and dependence on the quantization direction are carefully investigated. A wilsonian computation…
The present paper reviews some intriguing connections which link together a new renormalization technique, the theory of *-representations of infinite dimensional *-Lie algebras, quantum probability, white noise and stochastic calculus and…
We investigate to what extent renormalization can be understood as an algebraic manipulation on concatenated one-loop integrals. We find that the resulting algebra indicates a useful connection to knot theory.
The Refined Gribov-Zwanziger framework takes into account the existence of equivalent gauge field configurations in the gauge-fixing quantization procedure of Euclidean Yang-Mills theories. Recently, this setup was extended to the family of…
Arbitrary diffeomorphically invariant metric-torsion theories of gravity are considered. It is assumed that Lagrangians of such theories contain derivatives of field variables (tensor densities of arbitrary ranks and weights) up to a second…
A short review of recent renormalization group analyses of the self-consistence of the Standard Model is presented.
We consider abelian gauge theories on a lattice and develop properties of an axial gauge that is covariant under lattice symmetries. Particular attention is paid to a version that behaves nicely under block averaging renormalization group…
