Based on a path integral prescription for anomaly calculation, we analyze an effective theory of the two-dimensional $N=2$ supergravity, i.e., $N=2$ super-Liouville theory. We calculate the anomalies associated with the BRST supercurrent…

We construct the chiral algebra associated with the $A_{1}$-type class $\mathcal{S}$ theory for genus two Riemann surface without punctures. By solving the BRST cohomology problem corresponding to a marginal gauging in four dimensions, we…

The four different kinds of currents are given by the multiple $(\beta,\gamma)$ and $(b,c)$ ghost systems with a multiple product of derivatives. We determine their complete algebra where the structure constants depend on the deformation…

By quantizing the generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction scheme for arbitrary $sl_2$ embeddings we show that a large set $\cal W$ of quantum W algebras can be viewed as (BRST) cohomologies of affine Lie algebras. The set $\cal W$ contains…

By computing the operator product expansions between the first two ${\cal N}=4$ higher spin multiplets in the unitary coset model, the (anti)commutators of higher spin currents are obtained under the large $(N,k)$ 't Hooft-like limit. The…

In this paper, we construct a new sequence of generators of the BRST complex and reformulate the BRST differential so that it acts on elements of the complex much like the Maurer-Cartan differential acts on left-invariant forms. Thus our…

We study the construction of the classical nilpotent canonical BRST charge for the nonlinear gauge algebras where a commutator (in terms of Poisson brackets) of the constraints is a finite order polynomial of the constraints. Such a…

The definition for the Slater-type orbitals is generalized. Transformation between an orthonormal basis function and the Slater-type orbital with non-integer principal quantum numbers is investigated. Analytical expressions for the linear…

We show that the associative algebra structure can be incorporated in the BRST quantization formalism for gauge theories such that extension from the corresponding Lie algebra to the associative algebra is achieved using operator…

We construct the exponentials of the Liouville field with continuous powers within the operator approach. Their chiral decomposition is realized using the explicit Coulomb-gas operators we introduced earlier. {}From the quantum-group…

We find new special physical operators of $W_3 -$gravity having non trivial ghost sectors. Some of these operators may be viewed as the liouville dressings of the energy operator of the Ising model coupled to {\it 2d~gravity} and this fills…

We construct a Lagrangian description of irreducible half-integer higher-spin representations of the Poincare group with the corresponding Young tableaux having two rows, on a basis of the BRST approach. Starting with a description of…

We study the construction of the classical Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) charge and observables for arbitrary reducible gauge theory. Using a special coordinate system in the extended phase space, we obtain an explicit expression for the…

The full cohomology ring of the Lian-Zuckerman type operators (states) in ${\hat c_M}<1$ Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond (NSR) string theory is argued to be generated by three elements $x$, $y$ and $w$ in analogy with the corresponding results in the…

Using superspace unitary operator formalism, we derive various (anti-)BRST symmetry transformations explicitly for the non-Abelian 2-form gauge theories. We introduce a new Lagrangian with a coupling of matter fields not only with 1-from…

We consider the background-free quantum gravity based on conformal gravity with the Riegert-Wess-Zumino action, which is formulated in terms of a conformal field theory. Employing the $R \times S^3$ background in practice, we construct the…

We describe the (chiral) BRST-cohomology of matter with central charge $1<c_M<25$ coupled to a ``Liouville" theory, realized as a free field with a background charge $Q_L$ such that $c_M+c_L=26$. We consider two cases: a) matter is realized…

We perform a BRST analysis of the N=2 superconformal minimal unitary models. A bosonic as well as fermionic BRST operators are used to construct irreducible representations of the N=2 superconformal algebra on the Fock space as BRST…

The method of construction of auxiliary representations for a given Lie algebra is discussed in the framework of the BRST approach. The corresponding BRST charge turns out to be non -- hermitian. This problem is solved by the introduction…

The quantum BRST charges for the Bershadsky-Knizhnik orthogonal quasi-superconformal algebras are constructed. These two-dimensional superalgebras have the $N$-extended non-linearly realised supersymmetry and the $SO(N)$ internal symmetry.…
