Topological Field Theory and Nonlinear Σ - Models on Symmetric Spaces
نویسنده
چکیده
We show that the classical non-abelian pure Chern-Simons action is related to nonrelativistic models in (2+1)-dimensions, via reductions of the gauge connection in Hermitian symmetric spaces. In such models the matter fields are coupled to gauge Chern-Simons fields, which are associated with the isotropy subgroup of the considered symmetric space. Moreover, they can be related to certain (integrable and non-integrable) evolution systems, as the Ishimori and the Heisenberg model. The main classical and quantum properties of these systems are discussed in connection with the topological field theory and the condensed matter physics.

Mirror Manifolds and Topological Field Theory
These notes are devoted to sketching how some of the standard facts relevant to mirror symmetry and its applications can be naturally understood in the context of topological field theory. If X is a Calabi-Yau manifold, the usual nonlinear sigma model governing maps of a Riemann surface Σ to X can be twisted in two ways to give topological field theories, which I call the A model and the B mode...
متن کاملInformation metric on instanton moduli spaces in nonlinear σ models
We study the information metric on instanton moduli spaces in two-dimensional nonlinear σ models. In the CP 1 model, the information metric on the moduli space of one instanton with the topological charge Q = k (k ≥ 1) is a three-dimensional hyperbolic metric, which corresponds to Euclidean anti–de Sitter space-time metric in three dimensions, and the overall scale factor of the information met...
متن کاملBogomol’nyi Solitons and Hermitian Symmetric Spaces
We apply the coadjoint orbit method to construct relativistic nonlinear sigma models (NLSM) on the target space of coadjoint orbits coupled with the ChernSimons (CS) gauge field and study self-dual solitons. When the target space is given by Hermitian symmetric space (HSS), we find that the system admits selfdual solitons whose energy is Bogomol’nyi bounded from below by a topological charge. T...
متن کاملSpherically Symmetric Solutions in a New Braneworld Massive Gravity Theory
In this paper, a combination of the braneworld scenario and covariant de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) massive Gravity theory is proposed. In this setup, the five-dimensional bulk graviton is considered to be massive. The five dimensional nonlinear ghost-free massive gravity theory affects the 3-brane dynamics and the gravitational potential on the brane. Following the solutions with spherical s...
