In this paper we study the general conditions that have to be met for a gauged extension of a two-dimensional bosonic sigma-model to exist. In an inversion of the usual approach of identifying a global symmetry and then promoting it to a…

We discuss the relation between two different models which are recently proposed as the model of localizing bulk gauge fields on a brane. In the former model, the localization of gauge field is achieved by adding both bulk and boundary mass…

We consider gauged sigma-models from a Riemann surface into a Kaehler and hamiltonian G-manifold X. The supersymmetric N=2 theory can always be twisted to produce a gauged A-model. This model localizes to the moduli space of solutions of…

We discuss gauge fields on tori in diverse dimensions, mainly in two and four dimensions. We construct various explicit gauge fields which have some topological charges and find the Dirac zero modes in the background of the gauge fields. By…

The strictly gauge invariant approach to the construction of the analog of guiding center integrals of motion in spatially homogeneous/inhomogeneous constant magnetic fields is considered. With their help the gauge invariant equations,…

Gauge fields are described on an Riemann-Cartan space-time by means of tensor-valued differential forms and exterior calculus. It is shown that minimal coupling procedure leads to a gauge invariant theory where gauge fields interact with…

We show that the construction of vortex solitons of the noncommutative Abelian-Higgs model can be extended to a critically coupled gauged linear sigma model with Fayet-Illiopolous D-terms. Like its commutative counterpart, this fuzzy linear…

We consider nonlinear gauged sigma-models with Kahler domain and target. For a special choice of potential these models admit Bogomolny (or self-duality) equations -- the so-called vortex equations. We find the moduli space and energy…

New, gauge-independent, second-order Lagrangian for the motion of classical, charged test particles is used to derive the corresponding Hamiltonian formulation. For this purpose a Hamiltonian description of the theories derived from the…

We show that the leading semiclassical behavior of soliton form factors at arbitrary momentum transfer is controlled by solutions to a new wave-like integro-differential equation that describes solitons undergoing acceleration. We work in…

Nonlinear sigma models arise in supergravity theories with or without matter couplings in various dimensions and they are important in understanding the duality symmetries of M-theory. With this motivation in mind, we review the salient…

Lie-Poisson gauge formalism provides a semiclassical description of noncommutative $U(1)$ gauge theory with Lie algebra type noncommutativity. Using the Dirac approach to constrained Hamiltonian systems, we focus on a class of Lie-Poisson…

We construct actions for (p,0)- and (p,1)- supersymmetric, 1 <= p <= 4, two-dimensional gauge theories coupled to non-linear sigma model matter with a Wess-Zumino term. We derive the scalar potential for a large class of these models. We…

On the configuration space of projections in a noncommutative algebra, and for an automorphism of the algebra, we use a twisted Hochschild cocycle for an action functional, and a twisted cyclic cocycle for a topological term. The latter is…

We generalize the $(n+1)$-dimensional twisted $R$-Poisson topological sigma model with flux on a target Poisson manifold to a Lie algebroid. Analyzing consistency of constraints in the Hamiltonian formalism and the gauge symmetry in the…

Field theory and gauge theory on noncommutative spaces have been established as their own areas of research in recent years. The hope prevails that a noncommutative gauge theory will deliver testable experimental predictions and will thus…

We develop a field-theoretical approach to determination of the background target space fields corresponding to general $G/H$ coset conformal theories described by gauged WZW models. The basic idea is to identify the effective action of a…

Toroidal orbifolds and their resolutions are described within the framework of (2,2) Gauged Linear Sigma Models (GLSMs). Our procedure describes two-tori as hypersurfaces in (weighted) projective spaces. The description is chosen such that…

We propose a dynamical mechanism of localization of gauge fields on a brane in which gauge bosons are excitations of the brane itself or composites made out of matter fields localized on the brane. The mechanism is operative for both…

It is shown that the introduction of a suitable function in the higher-dimensional gauge field action may be used in order to achieve gauge bosons localization on a thick brane. The model is constructed upon analogies to the effective…
