We consider free higher derivative theories of scalars and Dirac fermions in the presence of a boundary in general dimension. We establish a method for finding consistent conformal boundary conditions in these theories by removing certain…
Modern relativistic theory of the second quantization of fermion and boson fields is based on the use of the mathematical apparatus of C*-algebras and Lie superalgebras. In this case, for fermions, the Lorentz transformations are considered…
In this work, we interpret part of the boundary conditions as external sources in order to solve the integrability problem present in the computation of surface charges associated to gauge symmetries in the hamiltonian formalism. We start…
Stationary solutions of the Chern-Simons effective field theory for the fractional quantum Hall systems with edges are presented for Hall bar, disk and annulus. In the infinitely long Hall bar geometry (non compact case), the charge density…
The Green-Schwarz action for an open superstring with additional boundary fermions, representing Chan-Paton factors, is studied at the classical level. The boundary geometry is described by a bundle, with fermionic fibres, over the super…
We review the construction of a low-energy effective field theory and its state space for "abelian" quantum Hall fluids. The scaling limit of the incompressible fluid is described by a Chern-Simons theory in 2+1 dimensions on a manifold…
A particular form of non-linear $\sigma$-model, having a global gauge invariance, is studied. The detailed discussion on current algebra structures reveals the non-abelian nature of the invariance, with {\it{field dependent structure…
The paper is devoted to the Hamiltonian treatment of classical and quantum properties of Liouville field theory on a timelike strip in 2d Minkowski space. We give a complete description of classical solutions regular in the interior of the…
I demonstrate how chiral fermions with an exact gauge symmetry can appear on the d-dimensional boundary of a finite volume (d+1)-dimensional manifold, without any light mirror partners. The condition for the d-dimensional boundary theory to…
We discuss a generalization of the conventional bosonization procedure to the case of current-current interactions which get their natural representation in terms of current instead of fermion number density operators. A consistent…
The possibility of non-trivial representations of the gauge group on wavefunctionals of a gauge invariant quantum field theory leads to a generation of mass for intermediate vector and tensor bosons. The mass parameters "m" show up as…
We consider the four dimensional abelian topological BF theory with a planar boundary introduced following the Symanzik's method. We find the most general boundary conditions compatible with the fields equations broken by the boundary. The…
In this paper free field realizations of affine current superalgebras are considered. Based on quantizing differential operator realizations of the corresponding basic Lie superalgebras, general and simple expressions for both the bosonic…
We propose the bosonization of a many-body fermion theory in D spatial dimensions through a noncommutative field theory on a (2D-1)-dimensional space. This theory leads to a chiral current algebra over the noncommutative space and…
Gravity theory based on current algebra is formulated. The gauge principle rather than the general covariance combined with the equivalence principle plays the pivotal role in the formalism, and the latter principles are derived as a…
We define currents on a Grassmann algebra $Gr(N)$ with $N$ generators as distributions on its exterior algebra (using the symmetric wedge product). We interpret the currents in terms of ${\Z}_2$-graded Hochschild cohomology and closed…
We consider a one-dimensional system of non-interacting fermions featuring both boundary driving and continuous monitoring of the bulk particle density. Due to the measurements, the expectation values of the local density and current…
We derive the interaction of fermions with a dynamical space-time based on the postulate that the description of physics should be independent of the reference frame, which means to require the form-invariance of the fermion action under…
Fermions are coupled to the Einstein-Cartan system in the canonical formulation, including the cosmological, the Barbero-Immirzi, and the non-minimal coupling constants. The resulting ten first-class constraints generate gauge…
The commutator anomalies (Schwinger terms) of current algebras in $3+1$ dimensions are computed in terms of the Wodzicki residue of pseudodifferential operators; the result can be written as a (twisted) Radul 2-cocycle for the Lie algebra…
