This thesis considers one and two dimensional supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models. First there is a discussion of the geometries of one and two dimensional sigma models, with rigid supersymmetry. For the one-dimensional case, the…

Following recent work on GLSM localization, we work out curvature couplings for rigidly supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models with superpotential for general target spaces, describing both ordinary and twisted chiral superfields on round…

We consider the conformal gauging of non-abelian groups. In such cases there are inequivalent ways of gauging (generalizing the axial and vector cases for abelian groups) corresponding to external automorphisms of the group. Different…

We study two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}{=}(0,2)$ supersymmetric gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs) using supersymmetric localization. We consider $\mathcal{N}{=}(0,2)$ theories with an $R$-symmetry, which can always be defined on curved space…

In this paper we prove the existence of an algebraic model for quasi-coherent sheaves on certain non-connective geometric stacks arising in stable homotopy theory and spectral algebraic geometry using the machinery of adapted homology…

We describe supersymmetric A-branes and B-branes in open N=(2,2) dynamically gauged nonlinear sigma models (GNLSM), placing emphasis on toric manifold target spaces. For a subset of toric manifolds, these equivariant branes have a mirror…

The question of whether or not any zero torsion linear map on a non abelian real Lie algebra g is necessarily an extension of some CR-structure is considered and answered in the negative. Two examples are provided, one in the negative and…

Abelian vector fields non-minimally coupled to uncharged scalar fields arise in many contexts. We investigate here through algebraic methods their consistent deformations ("gaugings"), i.e., the deformations that preserve the number (but…

We review a systematic construction of the 2-stack of bundle gerbes via descent, and extend it to non-abelian gerbes. We review the role of non-abelian gerbes in orientifold sigma models, for the anomaly cancellation in supersymmetric sigma…

In this paper we give a proposal for mirrors to (0,2) supersymmetric gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs), for those (0,2) GLSMs which are deformations of (2,2) GLSMs. Specifically, we propose a construction of (0,2) mirrors for (0,2) GLSMs…

We propose the definition of (twisted) generalized hyperkaehler geometry and its relation to supersymmetric non-linear sigma models. We also construct the corresponding twistor space.

We study the realization of non-Abelian discrete gauge symmetries in 4d field theory and string theory compactifications. The underlying structure generalizes the Abelian case, and follows from the interplay between gaugings of non-Abelian…

Consistent couplings among a set of scalar fields, two types of one-forms and a system of two-forms are investigated in the light of the Hamiltonian BRST cohomology, giving a four-dimensional nonlinear gauge theory. The emerging…

We construct quantum K-invariants in non-archimedean analytic geometry. Contrary to the classical approach in algebraic geometry via perfect obstruction theory, we build on our previous works on the foundations of derived non-archimedean…

In this paper we propose a systematic construction of mirrors of nonabelian two dimensional (2,2) supersymmetric gauge theories. Specifically, we propose a construction of B-twisted Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds whose correlation functions…

We use an extension of the method due to Batalin, Fradkin, Fradkina, and Tyutin (BFFT) for transforming the nonlinear $\sigma$ model in a non-Abelian gauge theory. We deal with both supersymmetric and nonsupersymmetric cases. The bosonic…

The Lie-Poisson structure of non-Abelian Thirring models is discussed and the Hamiltonian quantization of these theories is carried out. The consistency of the Hamiltonian quantization with the path integral method is established. It is…

We establish a double dualization in two-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theory. We construct a gauged linear sigma model (GLSM) which contains a complex twisted linear superfield coupled to two sets of Abelian vector superfields. In the…

This is a brief review of some of the uses of nonlinear sigma models. After a short general discussion touching on point particles, strings and condensed matter systems, focus is shifted to sigma models as probes of target space geometries.…

A general study of non-abelian duality is presented. We first identify a possible obstruction to the conformal invariance of the dual theory for non-semisimple groups. We construct the exact non-abelian dual for any Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW)…
