Dimensional reduction of dual topological theories
We describe the reduction from four to two dimensions of the SU(2) Donaldson-Witten theory and the dual twisted Seiberg-Witten theory, i.e. the Abelian topological field theory corresponding to the Seiberg–Witten monopole equations. NBI-HE-96-14 hep-th/9603023 ∗E-mail: [email protected]
متن کاملSupergravity from Dimensional Reduction
We perform a generalised Scherk-Schwarz reduction of the effective action of the het-erotic string on T 6 to obtain a massive N = 4 supergravity theory in four dimensions. The local symmetry-group of the resulting d = 4 theory includes a Heisenberg group, which is a subgroup of the global O(6, 6 + n) obtained in the standard reduction. We show explicitly that the same theory can be obtained by ...
متن کاملTopological Mass Generation in Three-dimensional String Theory
The effective action of string theory in three dimensions is investigated, incorporating the Lorentz and gauge Chern-Simons terms in the definition of the Kalb-Ramond axion field strength. Since in three dimensions any three-form is trivial, the action can be reformulated by properly integrating the axion out. The circumstances under which it can be recast in form of topologically massive gravi...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Gauge Theory with Topological and Non-topological Mass: Hamiltonian and Lagrangian Analysis
Three dimensional (abelian) gauged massive Thirring model is bosonized in the large fermion mass limit. A further integration of the gauge field results in a non-local theory. A truncated version of that is the Maxwell Chern Simons (MCS) theory with a conventional mass term or MCS Proca theory. This gauge invariant theory is completely solved in the Hamiltonian and Lagrangian formalism, with th...
متن کاملGauged Supergravity from Dimensional Reduction
We perform a generalised Scherk-Schwarz reduction of the effective action of the het-erotic string on T 6 to obtain a massive N = 4 supergravity theory in four dimensions. The local symmetry-group of the resulting d = 4 theory includes a Heisenberg group, which is a subgroup of the global O(6, 6 + n) obtained in the standard reduction.
