We present an alternative derivation of the parity anomaly for a massless Dirac field in 2+1 dimensions coupled to a gauge field. The anomaly functional, a Chern-Simons action for the gauge field, is obtained from the non-trivial Jacobian…
This talk discusses two topological features in non-abelian gauge theories, related by the notion of abelian projection and the Hopf invariant. Minimising the energy of the non-linear sigma model with a Skyrme-like term (the Faddeev-Niemi…
We prove an integral R = T theorem for odd two dimensional p-adic representations of the absolute Galois group which are unramified at p, extending results of [CG] to the non-minimal case. We prove, for any p, the existence of Katz modular…
We explicitly describe, in the language of four-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric field theory, what happens when the moduli of a heterotic Calabi-Yau compactification change so as to make the internal non-Abelian gauge fields…
In this paper we prove a conjecture regarding the form of the Born-Infeld Lagrangian with a U(1)^2n gauge group after the elimination of the auxiliary fields. We show that the Lagrangian can be written as a symmetrized trace of Lorentz…

We obtain new inversion formulas for the Radon transform and the corresponding dual transform acting on affine Grassmann manifolds of planes in $R^n$. The consideration is performed in full generality on continuous functions and functions…
We suggest an extension of the Yang-Mills theory which includes non-Abelian tensor gauge fields. The invariant Lagrangian is quadratic in the field strength tensors and describes interaction of charged tensor gauge bosons of arbitrary large…
We present a novel analysis of a Radon transform, $R$, which maps an $L^2$ function of compact support to its integrals over smooth surfaces of revolution with centers on an embedded hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Using microlocal…
We review recent progress in the construction and classification of six-dimensional (1,0) superconformal models with non-abelian tensor fields. Here we solve the generalized Jacobi identities which are required for consistency of the…
We introduce a class of Radon transforms for reductive symmetric spaces, including the horospherical transforms, and study some of their properties. In particular we obtain a support theorem that generalizes Helgason's support theorem for…
Using the Non-Abelian Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism introduced recently, we present a generalization of the Yang-Mills gauge transformations , to include antisymmetric tensor fields as gauge bosons. The Freedman-Townsend transformation for…
A method developed by Polychronakos to study singular gauge transformations in 1+2 dimensional non-commutative Chern-Simons gauge theory is generalized from U(1) group to U(2) group. The method clarifies the singular behavior of…
Gauging of space translations for nonrelativistic point particles in one dimension leads to general coordinate transformations with fixed Newtonian time. The minimal gauge invariant extension of the particle velocity requires the…
Consider a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $\geq 3$ with strictly convex boundary, such that the manifold admits a strictly convex function. We show that the attenuated ray transform in the presence of an arbitrary connection and…
We solve the noncommutative Noether's problem for the reflection groups by showing that the skew field of the invariants of the Weyl algebra under the action of any reection group is a Weyl field, that is isomorphic to a skew field of some…
Let $G\subset \C P^n$ be a linearly convex compact with smooth boundary, $D={\C}P^n\setminus G$, and let $D^* \subset (\C P^n)^*$ be the dual domain. Then for an algebraic, not necessarily reduced, complete intersection subvariety $V$ of…

Via partial resolution of Abelian orbifolds we present an algorithm for extracting a consistent set of gauge theory data for an arbitrary toric variety whose singularity a D-brane probes. As illustrative examples, we tabulate the matter…
We prove analogues of the Riemann-Roch Theorem and the Hodge Theorem for noncommutative tori (of any dimension) equipped with complex structures, and discuss implications for the question of how to distinguish "noncommutative abelian…
