On chiral bosons in 2D and 6D

چکیده
In the Hamiltonian formulation of chiral 2k-form electrodynamics, potential on (4k+1)-space is defined up to addition either (i) a closed $2k$-form or (ii) an exact 2k-form, depending choice chirality constraint. Case realized by Floreanini-Jackiw 2D boson (for k=0) and its Henneaux-Teitelboim generalisation k>0. For all k, but focusing 6D case, we present simple Lorentz-invariant model that realizes case (ii), derive it from Siegel's manifestly Lorentz invariant Lagrangian formulation.

On 7D TFT and 6D chiral CFT
We perform a canonical and BRST analysis of a seven-dimensional Chern-Simons theory on a manifold with boundary. The main result is that the 7D theory induces for consistency a chiral two-form on the 6D boundary. We also comment on similar behaviour in a fivedimensional Chern-Simons theory relevant for N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions. email: [email protected]
متن کاملChiral Bosons as solutions of the BV master equation for 2D chiral gauge theories
We construct the chiral Wess-Zumino term as a solution for the Batalin-Vilkovisky master equation for anomalous two-dimensional gauge theories, working in an extended fieldantifield space, where the gauge group elements are introduced as additional degrees of freedom. We analyze the Abelian and the non-Abelian cases, calculating in both cases the BRST generator in order to show the physical equ...
متن کاملChiral Compactifications of 6D Conformal Theories
We construct chiral N = 1 gauge theories in 4D by compactifying the 6D BlumIntriligator (1, 0) theories of 5-branes at Ak singularities on T 2 with a nontrivial bundle of the global U(1) symmetry of these theories. [email protected] [email protected] [email protected]
متن کاملScaling Solutions to 6D Gauged Chiral Supergravity
We construct explicitly time-dependent exact solutions to the field equations of 6D gauged chiral supergravity, compactified to 4D in the presence of up to two 3-branes situated within the extra dimensions. The solutions we find are scaling solutions, and are plausibly attractors which represent the late-time evolution of a broad class of initial conditions. By matching their near-brane boundar...
متن کاملInterference Phenomena, Chiral Bosons and Lorentz Invariance
The concept of interference phenomena in quantum field theory is an analogy with Young's double slit experiment. It has been studied over the last few years, in various dimensions, in the light of the soldering formalism introduced by Stone to fusion two opposite manifestations of chirality. Firstly, we have studied the theory of gauged chiral bosons and proposed a new general theory that encom...
