The geometry of (2,1) supersymmetric sigma-models is reviewed and the conditions under which they have isometry symmetries are analysed. Certain potentials are constructed that play an important role in the gauging of such symmetries. The…
In order to study in a regularisation free manner the renormalisability of d=2 supersymmetric non-linear $\si$ models, one has to use the algebraic BRS methods ; moreover, in the absence of an off-shell formulation, one has often to deal…
The sigma models on projective superspaces CP^{N+M-1|N} with topological angle theta=pi mod 2pi flow to non-unitary, logarithmic conformal field theories in the low-energy limit. In this paper, we determine the exact spectrum of these…
The boundary supersymmetric sinh-Gordon model is an integrable quantum field theory in 1+1 dimensions with bulk N=1 supersymmetry, whose bulk and boundary S matrices are not diagonal. We present an exact solution of this model. In…
We construct N=2 supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models whose target spaces are tangent as well as cotangent bundles over the quadric surface Q^{n-2} = SO(n)/[SO(n-2)\times U(1)]. We use the projective superspace framework, which is an…
We show that the infinite series in the classical action for non(anti)commutative N=2 sigma models in two dimensions, can be resummed by using constraint equations of the auxiliary fields. We argue that the resulting action takes a standard…
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…
We revisit supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models on the target manifold $CP^{N-1}$ and $SO(N)/SO(N-2)\times U(1)$ in four dimensions. These models are formulated as gauged linear models, but it is indicated that the Wess-Zumino term should…
We study the flow equation for the $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric $O(N)$ nonlinear sigma model in two dimensions, which cannot be given by the gradient of the action, as evident from dimensional analysis. Imposing the condition on the flow…
We study both A-type and B-type D-branes in the gauged linear sigma model by considering worldsheets with boundary. The boundary conditions on the matter and vector multiplet fields are first considered in the large-volume phase/non-linear…
We rewrite the N=(2,2) non-linear sigma model using auxiliary spinorial superfields defining the model on ${\cal T}\oplus^ *{\cal T}$, where ${\cal T}$ is the tangent bundle of the target space. This is motivated by possible connections to…
In this paper we consider the N = 2 supergravity models in which the hypermultiplets realize the nonlinear sigma-models, corresponding to the nonsymmetric (but homogeneous) quaternionic manifolds. By exploiting the isometries of appropriate…
We construct superconformal gauged sigma models with extended rigid supersymmetry in three dimensions. Those with N>4 have necessarily flat targets, but the models with N \leq 4 admit non-flat targets, which are cones with appropriate…
We discuss the following aspects of two-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric theories defined on compact super Riemann surfaces: parametrization of (2,0) and (2,2) superconformal structures in terms of Beltrami coefficients and formulation of…
We gauge the (2,2) supersymmetric non-linear sigma model whose target space has bihermitian structure (g, B, J_{\pm}) with noncommuting complex structures. The bihermitian geometry is realized by a sigma model which is written in terms of…
We study the non-minimal supersymmetric heterotically deformed $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ sigma model with the Grassmannian target space $\mathcal{G}_{M,N}$. To develop the appropriate superfield formalism, we begin with a simplified model with…
Rigidly superconformal sigma models in higher than two dimensions are constructed. These models rely on the existence of conformal Killing spinors on the $p+1$ dimensional worldvolume $(p\le 5)$, and homothetic conformal Killing vectors in…
We propose a geometric formulation of effective field theories via nonlinear supersymmetry. Non-supersymmetric particles are embedded in constrained superfields governed by a nonlinear sigma model, and operators are collected into…
We construct the general O(N)-symmetric non-linear sigma model in 2+1 spacetime dimensions at the Lifshitz point with dynamical critical exponent z=2. For a particular choice of the free parameters, the model is asymptotically free with the…
We construct the embedding of the $\lambda$-model on $SL(2, \mathbb{R}) \times SU(2) \times SU(2)$ in type-II supergravity. In the absence of deformation, the ten-dimensional background corresponds to the near-horizon limit of the…
