On a class of gauge theories

چکیده
We give a framework to describe gauge theory in which a nonassociative Moufang loop takes the place of the structure group. The structure of such gauge theory has many formal similarities with that of Yang-Mills theory. We extend the gauge invariance to this theory and construct an on-shell version of N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theory.

Embedding of a 2D Graphene System in Non-Commutative Space
The BFT approach is used to formulate the electronic states in graphene through a non-commutative space in the presence of a constant magnetic field B for the first time. In this regard, we introduce a second class of constrained system, which is not gauge symmetric but by applying BFT method and extending phase space, the second class constraints converts to the first class constraints so th...
متن کاملFrom ALE-instanton Moduli to Super Yang-Mills Theories via Branes
A large class of equivalence relations between the moduli spaces of instantons on ALE spaces and the Higgs branches of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories, are found by means of a certain kind of duality transformation between brane configurations in superstring theories. 4d, N=2 and 5d, N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories with product gauge groups turn out to correspond to the ALE-instanton modul...
متن کاملAnomalous gauge theories revisited
A possible formulation of chiral gauge theories with an anomalous fermion content is re-examined in light of the lattice framework based on the Ginsparg-Wilson relation. It is shown that the fermion sector of a wide class of anomalous non-abelian theories cannot consistently be formulated within this lattice framework. In particular, in 4 dimension, all anomalous non-abelian theories are includ...
متن کاملDeconstructing 5D supersymmetric U(1) gauge theories on orbifolds
We investigate deconstruction of five dimensional supersymmetric abelian gauge theories compactified on S1/Z2, with various sets of bulk and matter multiplets. The problem of anomalies, chirality and stability in the deconstructed theories is discussed. We find that for most of the 5d brane/bulk matter assignments there exists the deconstructed version. There are, however, some exceptions. High...
متن کاملNovel generalization of three-dimensional Yang-Mills theory
A class of new nonabelian gauge theories for vector fields on three manifolds is presented. The theories describe a generalization of three-dimensional YangMills theory featuring a novel nonlinear gauge symmetry and field equations for Lie-algebra valued vector potential fields. The nonlinear form of the gauge symmetry and field equations relies on the vector cross-product and vector curl opera...
متن کاملVortex solutions in nonabelian Higgs theories
A new class of vortex solutions is found in SU(2) gauge theories with two adjoint representation Higgs bosons. Implications of these new solutions and their possible connection with Center Gauge fixed pure gauge theories are discussed. PACS numbers: 11.15Kc, 11.15Ha, 12.38Aw The classification of vortex solutions in SU(N) gauge theories requires the investigation of mapping rotations around the...
