We study supersymmetric $SU(N-4)$ gauge theories with a symmetric tensor and $N$ antifundamental representations. The theory with $W=0$ has a dual description in terms of a non-chiral $Spin(8)$ theory with one spinor and $N$ vectors. This…

Using the Bailey flow construction, we derive character identities for the N=1 superconformal models SM(p',2p+p') and SM(p',3p'-2p), and the N=2 superconformal model with central charge c=3(1-2p/p') from the nonunitary minimal models…

We investigate the W-algebras generated by the integer dimension chiral primary operators of the SU(2)_0 WZNW model. These have a form almost identical to that found in the c=-2 model but have, in addition, an extended Kac-Moody structure.…

Starting from flat two-dimensional gauge potentials we propose the notion of ${\cal W}$-gauge structure in terms of a nilpotent BRS differential algebra. The decomposition of the underlying Lie algebra with respect to an $SL(2)$ subalgebra…

W_{1+infty} is defined as an infinite dimensional Lie algebra spanned by the unit operator and the Laurent modes of a series of local quasiprimary chiral fields V^l(z) of dimension l+1 (l=0,1,2,...). These fields are neutral with respect to…

Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond type heterotic and type-II superstrings in four dimensional curved space-time are constructed as exact $N=1$ superconformal theories. The tachyon is eliminated with a GSO projection. The theory is based on the N=1…

The holomorphic prepotential of ultraviolet finite N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories is obtained by a partial twisting of N=1 gauge theory in six dimensions, compactified on $\IR^4\timesT^2$. We show that Ward identities for the conserved…

We suggest a means of obtaining certain Green's functions in 3+1-dimensional ${\cal N} = 4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with a large number of colors via non-critical string theory. The non-critical string theory is related to critical…

We consider a bosonic string propagating in 4--dim Minkowski space. We show that in the orthonormal gauge the classical system exhibits a hidden $W_{\infty}$ chiral symmetry, arising from the equivalence of its transverse modes with the…

We introduce the Liouville mode into the Green-Schwarz superstring. Like massive supersymmetry without central charges, there is no kappa symmetry. However, the second-class constraints (and corresponding Wess-Zumino term) remain, and can…

The multi-vector generalization of a rigid, partially-broken $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric theory is presented as a rigid limit of a suitable gauged $\mathcal{N}=2$ supergravity with electric, magnetic charges and antisymmetric tensor…

We consider correlation functions in Neveu--Schwarz string theory coupled to two dimensional gravity. The action for the 2D gravity consists of the string induced Liouville action and the Jackiw--Teitelboim action describing pure 2D…

We discuss a realization of the bosonic string as a noncritical $W_3$-string. The relevant noncritical $W_3$-string is characterized by a Liouville sector which is restricted to a (non-unitary) $(3,2)$ $W_3$ minimal model with central…

We investigate $N=2$ extended superconformal symmetry, using the half-twisted Landau-Ginzburg models. The first example is the $D_{2n+2}$ -type minimal model. It has been conjectured that this model has a spin $n$ super $W$ current. We…

We discuss non-abelian $SU(N_c)$ gauge theory coupled to an adjoint chiral superfield $X$, and a number of fundamental chiral superfields $Q^i$. Using duality, we show that turning on a superpotential $W(X)=\Tr\sum_{l=1}^k g_l X^{l+1}$…

The anomalous Ward identity is derived for $N = 2$ SUSY Yang-Mills theories, which is resulted out of Wrapping of $D_5$ branes on Supersymmetric two cycles. From the Ward identity One obtains the Witten-Dijkgraaf-Verlinde-Verlinde equation…

We study the domain walls in hot $4$-D $SU(N)$ super Yang-Mills theory and QCD(adj), with $n_f$ Weyl flavors. We find that the $k$-wall worldvolume theory is $2$-D QCD with gauge group $SU(N-k)\times SU(k) \times U(1)$ and Dirac fermions…

Duality properties of the $SU(2)$ Principal Chiral Model are investigated starting from a one-parameter family of its equivalent Hamiltonian descriptions generated by a non-Abelian deformation of the cotangent space $T^*SU(2) \simeq SU(2)…

We review some of the recent progress in the continuum formulation of two-dimensional string theory, i.e. two-dimensional quantum gravity coupled to $c=1$ matter. Special attention is devoted to the discrete states and to the $w_\infty$…

We derive chiral Ward identities for lattice QCD with Wilson quarks and $N_\mathrm{f} \geq 3$ flavours, on small lattices with Schr\"odinger functional boundary conditions and vanishingly small quark masses. These identities relate the…
