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 construct explicit canonical transformations producing non-abelian duals in principal chiral models with arbitrary group G. Some comments concerning the extension to more general $\sigma$-models, like WZW models, are given.

A general study of non-abelian duality is presented. We first identify a possible obstruction to the conformal invariance of the dual theory for non-semisimple groups. We construct the exact non-abelian dual for any Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW)…

We derive two new classes of integrable theories interpolating between exact CFT WZW or gauged WZW models and non-Abelian T-duals of principal chiral models or geometric coset models. They are naturally constructed by gauging symmetries of…

Following on from arXiv:1805.03657, we consider open strings in the non-Abelian T-dual of the $SU(2)_k$ WZW model, with respect to the vector $SU(2)$ isometry. Since in this case the dual theory has an exact CFT description, we look at the…

We consider WZW models based on the non-semi-simple algebras that they were recently constructed as contractions of corresponding algebras for semi-simple groups. We give the explicit expression for the action of these models, as well as…

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…

Non--Abelian duality in relation to supersymmetry is examined. When the action of the isometry group on the complex structures is non--trivial, extended supersymmetry is realized non--locally after duality, using path ordered Wilson lines.…

The gauged WZNW model has been derived as an effective action, whose Poisson bracket algebra of the constraints is isomorphic to the commutator algebra of operators in quantized fermionic theory. As a consequence, the hamiltonian as well as…

We construct a family of 1D and 2D long-range SU(2) spin models as parent Hamiltonians associated with infinite dimensional matrix product states that arise from simple current correlation functions in $SU(2)_k$ WZW models. Our results…

Two chiral aspects of the SL(2,R) WZW model in an operator formalism are investigated. First, the meaning of duality, or conjugation, of primary fields is clarified. On a class of modules obtained from the discrete series it is shown, by…

The action of the non-abelian T-dual of the WZW model is related to an appropriate gauged WZW action via a limiting procedure. We extend this type of equivalence to general sigma-models with non-abelian isometries and their non-abelian…

We study d=2, N=(2,2) non-linear sigma-models in (2,2) superspace. By analyzing the most general constraints on a superfield, we show that through an appropriate choice of coordinates, there are no other superfields than chiral, twisted…

We construct a non-Abelian gauge theory of chiral 2-forms (self-dual gauge fields) in 6 dimensions with a spatial direction compactified on a circle of radius R. It has the following two properties. (1) It reduces to the Yang-Mills theory…

We derive the chiral kinetic theory in a non-Abelian gauge field using a self-consistent semiclassical expansion. Within this new expansion scheme, we disentangle the Wigner equations up to second order and demonstrate that they do not…

We supplement the discussion of Moore and Reshetikhin and others by finding new semiclassical nonabelian vertex operators for the chiral, antichiral and nonchiral primary fields of WZW theory. These new nonabelian vertex operators are the…

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…

A general construction of affine Non Abelian Toda models in terms of gauged two loop WZNW model is discussed. Its connection to non relativistic models corresponding to constrained KP hierarchies is established in terms of time evolution…

We study the soldering of two Siegel chiral bosons into one scalar field in a gravitational background.

We present a brief discussion of recent work on duality symmetries in non-trivial string backgrounds. Duality is obtained from a gauged non-linear sigma-model with vanishing gauge field strength. Standard results are reproduced for abelian…
