We study a new mechanism for the electromagnetic gauging of chiral bosons showing that new possibilities emerge for the interacting theory of chiral scalars. We introduce a chirally coupled gauge field necessary to mod out the degree of…
Chiral bosons are important building blocks in the study of supergravity, string theory and quantum Hall effect. Along the last two decades many different formulations have appeared trying to describe the dynamics and the quantization of…
We start this work by revisiting the problem of the soldering of two chiral Schwinger models of opposite chiralities. We verify that, in contrast with what one can conclude from the soldering literature, the usual sum of these models is, in…
The soldering mechanism is a new technique to work with distinct manifestations of dualities that incorporates interference effects, leading to new physical results that includes quantum contributions. This approach was used to investigate…
We develop a technique that solders the dual aspects of some symmetry following from the bosonisation of two distinct fermionic models, thereby leading to new results which cannot be otherwise obtained. Exploiting this technique, the two…
Quantization of two dimensional chiral matter coupled to gravity induces an effective action for the zweibein field which is both Weyl and Lorentz anomalous. Recently, the quantization of this induced action has been analyzed in the…
Chiral boson fields in (1+1) dimensions obey a first order equation of motion. A second order equation which classically describes two chiral boson fields of the same chirality leads, however, to an unacceptable quantum theory
We show that the recently developed soldering formalism in the Lagrangian approach and canonical transformations in the Hamiltonian approach are complementary. The examples of gauged chiral bosons in two dimensions and self-dual models in…
It is a well known result that the scalar field spectrum is composed of two chiral particles (Floreanini-Jackiw particles) of opposite chiralities. Also, that a Siegel particle spectrum is formed by a nonmover field (a Hull's noton) and a…
We study duality properties of actions for chiral boson fields in various space-time dimensions using D=2 and D=6 cases as examples. As a result we get dual covariant formulations of chiral bosons.
We have devoted an effort to study some nonlinear actions, characteristics of the ${\cal W}$-theories, in the framework of the soldering formalism. We have disclosed interesting new results concerning the embedding of the original chiral…
We study the non-abelian extension for the splitting of a scalar field into chiral components. Using this procedure we find a non ambiguous way of coupling a non abelian chiral scalar field to gravity. We start with a (non-chiral) WZW model…
We propose bosonised expressions for the chiral Schwinger models in four dimensions. Then, in complete analogy with the two dimensional case, we show the soldering of two bosonised chiral Schwinger models with opposite chiralities to yield…
We study the non-abelian extension of the soldering process of two chiral WZW models of opposite chiralities, resulting in a (non-chiral) WZW model living in a 2D space-time with non trivial Riemanian curvature.
We have studied the theory of gauged chiral bosons and proposed a general theory, a master action, that encompasses different kinds of gauge field couplings in chiral bosonized theories with first-class chiral constraints. We have fused…
We develop a technique that solders the dual aspects of some symmetry. Using this technique it is possible to combine two theories with such symmetries to yield a new effective theory. Some applications in two and three dimensional…
Sen's action for chiral bosons in 2 dimensions describes two chiral scalars, one of which couples to the physical metric and one of which couples to a flat metric. It has a generalisation in which the flat metric is replaced by an arbitrary…
In this work we prove in a precise way that the soldering formalism can be applied to the Srivastava chiral boson (SCB), in contradiction with some results appearing in the literature. We have promoted a canonical transformation that shows…
Genus two partition functions of 2d chiral conformal field theories are given by Siegel modular forms. We compute their conformal blocks and use them to perform the conformal bootstrap. The advantage of this approach is that it imposes…
We demonstrate that the technique of abelian bosonization through duality transformations can be extended to gauging anomalous symmetries. The example of a Dirac fermion theory is first illustrated. This idea is then also applied to…
