We introduce a consistent gauge extension of the SL(2,R) WZNW system, defined by a difference of two simple WZNW actions. By integrating out some dynamical variables in the functional integral, we show that the resulting effective theory…
We introduced a dynamical system given by a difference of two simple SL(2,R) WZNW actions in 2D, and defined the related gauge theory in a consistent way. It is shown that gauge symmetry can be fixed in such a way that, after integrating…
Starting from the Kac--Moody structure of the WZNW model for SL(2,R) and using the general canonical formalism, we formulate a gauge theory invariant under local SL(2,R) x SL(2,R) and diffeomorphisms. This theory represents a gauge…
A general method of constructing canonical gauge invariant actions is used to establish the equivalence between 2D induced gravity and a WZNW system, defined by a difference of two simple WZNW actions fo the SL(2,R) group. The…
A brief review is given of an adaptation of the coadjoint orbit method appropriate for study of models with infinite-dimensional symmetry groups. It is illustrated on several examples, including derivation of the WZNW action of induced…
After reviewing some aspects of gravity in two dimensions, it is shown that non-trivial embeddings of sl(2) in a semi-simple (super) Lie algebra give rise to a very large class of extensions of 2D gravity. The induced action is constructed…
In this paper we investigate gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models for space-time groups as gravitational theories, following the trend of recent work by Anabalon, Willison and Zanelli. We discuss the field equations in any dimension and study…
We prove that any gauged WZNW model has a Lax pair representation, and give explicitly the general solution of the classical equations of motion of the SL(2,R)/U(1) theory. We calculate the symplectic structure of this solution by solving a…
Abtract: 2-dimensional fermions are coupled to extrinsic geometry of a conformally immersed surface in ${\bf R}^3$ through gauge coupling. By integrating out the fermions, we obtain a WZNW action involving extrinsic curvature of the…
The Lax pair formulation of the two dimensional induced gravity in the light-cone gauge is extended to the more general $w_N$ theories. After presenting the $w_2$ and $w_3$ gravities, we give a general prescription for an arbitrary $w_N$…
Corrections to Newton's inverse law have been so far considered, but not clear in warped higher dimensional worlds, because of complexity of the Einstein equation. Here we give a model of a warped 6D world with an extra 2D sphere. We take a…
We consider the induced $2$d-gravity in the minisuperspace approach. The general solution to the Wheeler-DeWitt equation is given in terms of different kind of Bessel functions of purely real or imaginary orders. We study the properties of…
We study the canonical quantization of the induced 2d-gravity and the pure gravity CGHS-model on a closed spatial section. The Wheeler-DeWitt equations are solved in (spatially homogeneous) choices of the internal time variable and the…
We study small perturbations around an arbitrary static kink solution of a two-dimensional (2D) gravity-scalar system, where the gravity part is described by a subclass of 2D dilaton gravity theory, and the scalar matter field has…
General relativity in three spacetime dimensions is used to explore three approaches to the ``problem of time'' in quantum gravity: the internal Schr\"odinger approach with mean extrinsic curvature as a time variable, the Wheeler-DeWitt…
The canonical quantization of the WZNW model provides a complete set of exchange relations in the enlarged chiral state spaces that include the Gauss components of the monodromy matrices. Regarded as new dynamical variables, the elements of…
In this habilitation thesis we provide an introduction to gravitational models in two spacetime dimensions. Focus is put on exactly solvable models. We begin by introducing and motivating different possible gravitational actions, including…
It is shown that the models of 2D Liouville Gravity, 2D Black Hole- and $R^2$-Gravity are {\em embedded} in the Katanaev-Volovich model of 2D NonEinsteinian Gravity. Different approaches to the formulation of a quantum theory for the above…
We consider N=1 two-dimensional (2d) dilatonic supergravity (SG), 2d dilatonic SG obtained by dimensional reduction from N=1 four-dimensional (4d) SG, N=2 2d dilatonic SG and string-inspired 4d dilatonic SG. For all the theories, the…
Herein, we present a canonical form for a natural and necessary generalization of the Lambert W function, natural in that it requires minimal mathematical definitions for this generalization, and necessary in that it provides a means of…
