BRST Analysis of QCD2 as a Perturbed WZW Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
Integrability of Quantum Chromodynamics in 1+1 dimensions has recently been suggested by formulating it as a perturbed conformal Wess-Zumino-Witten theory. The present paper further elucidates this formulation, by presenting a detailed BRST analysis. CONICET, Argentina Investigador CICBA

BRST Cohomology and Vacuum Structure of Two-Dimensional Chromodynamics
Using a formulation of QCD2 as a perturbed conformally invariant theory involving fermions, ghosts, as well as positive and negative level Wess-Zumino-Witten fields, we show that the BRST conditions become restrictions on the conformally invariant sector, as described by a G/G topological theory. By solving the corresponding cohomology problem we are led to a finite set of vacua. For G = SU(2) ...
متن کاملThe universal envelope of the topological closed string BRST - complex
We construct a universal envelope for any Poissonand Gerstenhaber algebra. While the deformation theory of Poisson algebras seems to be partially trivial, results from string and M -theory suggest a rich deformation theory of Gerstenhaber algebras. We apply our construction in this case to well known questions on the topological closed string BRST-complex. Finally, we find a simliar algebraic s...
متن کاملW-strings from N = 2 Hamiltonian Reduction and Classification of N = 2 Super W-algebras
We present an algebraic approach to string theory, using a Hamiltonian reduction of N = 2 WZW models. An embedding of sl(1|2) in a Lie superalgebra determines a niltopent subalgebra. Chirally gauging this subalgebra in the corresponding WZW action leads to an extension of the N = 2 superconformal algebra. We classify all the embeddings of sl(1|2) into Lie superalgebras: this provides an exhaust...
متن کاملLocal BRST cohomology of the gauged principal non-linear sigma model
The local BRST cohomology of the gauged non-linear sigma model on a group manifold is worked out for any Lie group G. We consider both, the case where the gauge field is dynamical and the case where it has no kinetic term (G/G topological theory). Our results shed a novel light on the problem of gauging the WZW term as well as on the nature of the topological terms introduced a few years ago by...
متن کاملG/G- Topological Field Theories by Cosetting Gk.
G/G topological field theories based on G k WZW models are constructed and studied. These coset models are formulated as Complex BRST cohomology in G c k , the complexified level k current algebra. The finite physical spectrum corresponds to the conformal blocks of G k .The amplitudes for G/G theories are argued to be given in terms of the G k fusion rules. The Complex BRST cohomology is found ...
