Topological current algebras in two dimensions
نویسنده
چکیده
Two-dimensional topological field theories possessing a non-abelian current symmetry are constructed. The topological conformal algebra of these models is analysed. It differs from the one obtained by twisting the N = 2 superconfor-mal models and contains generators of dimensions 1, 2 and 3 that close a linear algebra. Our construction can be carried out with one and two bosonic currents and the resulting theories can be interpreted as topological sigma models for group manifolds.

Various topological forms of Von Neumann regularity in Banach algebras
We study topological von Neumann regularity and principal von Neumann regularity of Banach algebras. Our main objective is comparing these two types of Banach algebras and some other known Banach algebras with one another. In particular, we show that the class of topologically von Neumann regular Banach algebras contains all $C^*$-algebras, group algebras of compact abelian groups and ...
متن کاملStrong Topological Regularity and Weak Regularity of Banach Algebras
In this article we study two different generalizations of von Neumann regularity, namely strong topological regularity and weak regularity, in the Banach algebra context. We show that both are hereditary properties and under certain assumptions, weak regularity implies strong topological regularity. Then we consider strong topological regularity of certain concrete algebras. Moreover we obtain ...
متن کاملSuperconformal current algebras and topological field theories
Topological conformal field theories based on superconformal current algebras are constructed. The models thus obtained are the supersymmetric version of the G/G coset theories. Their topological conformal algebra is generated by operators of dimensions 1, 2 and 3 and can be regarded as an extension of the twisted N = 2 superconformal algebra. These models possess an extended supersymmetry whos...
متن کاملSubcategories of topological algebras
In addition to exploring constructions and properties of limits and colimits in categories of topological algebras, we study special subcategories of topological algebras and their properties. In particular, under certain conditions, reflective subcategories when paired with topological structures give rise to reflective subcategories and epireflective subcategories give rise to epireflective s...
متن کاملSome notes for topological centers on the duals of Banach algebras
We introduce the weak topological centers of left and right module actions and we study some of their properties. We investigate the relationship between these new concepts and the topological centers of of left and right module actions with some results in the group algebras.
