Abstract:
By using the gauge Ward identities, we study correlation functions of gauged WZNW models. We show that the gauge dressing of the correlation functions can be taken into account as a solution of the Knizhnik–Zamolodchikov equation. Our method is analogous to the analysis of the gravitational dressing of 2D field theories.

Abstract:
The supersymmetric extensions of anti-symmetric tensor gauge theories and their associated tensor gauge symmetry transformations are constructed. The classical equivalence between such supersymmetric tensor gauge theories and supersymmetric non-linear sigma models is established. The global symmetry of the supersymmetric tensor gauge theory is gauged and the locally invariant action is obtained. The supercurrent on the Kähler manifold is found in terms of the supersymmetric tensor gauge field.

Abstract:
A consistent quantum treatment of general gauge theories with an arbitrary gauge-fixing in the presence of soft breaking of the BRST symmetry in the field–antifield formalism is developed. It is based on a gauged (involving a field-dependent parameter) version of finite BRST transformations. The prescription allows one to restore the gauge-independence of the effective action at its extremals and therefore also that of the conventional S-matrix for a theory with BRST-breaking terms being additively introduced into a BRST-invariant action in order to achieve a consistency of the functional inte

Considering an even larger class of particle contents, we show that the number of possibly finite theories is greatly reduced.

A class of topological field theories like the BF model and Chern–Simons theory, when quantized in the Landau gauge, enjoys the property of invariance under a vector supersymmetry, which is responsible for their finiteness.

The presence of such an extension is naturally related to the vector supersymmetry discussed before.

Abstract:
We fermionize the two-dimensional free Lifshitz scalar field in order to identify what the gauge-covariant couplings are, and then they are bosonized back to get the gauged Lifshitz scalar field theories. We show that they give the same physical modes with those of the corresponding Lorentz invariant gauged scalar theories, although the dispersion relations are different.

Abstract:
The compensating Utiyama's method including space-time symmetries is revisited as well as the gauge gravitational theories associated with translation, Poincaré and Weyl groups. Then we propose an extension of the gauge symmetry, allowing for the incorporation of the gauge group parameters into the theory as dynamical fields by considering the jet-gauge group as fundamental symmetry. As a consequence, a natural mass-generating mechanism for the gauge potentials arises without damaging gauge invariance. We also present, as a simple example, some sort of generalized Stueckelberg model for the We

Abstract:
Gauge field theories may quite generally be defined as describing the coupling of a matter-field to an interaction-field, and they are suitably represented in the mathematical framework of fiber bundles. Their underlying principle is the so-called gauge principle, which is based on the idea of deriving the coupling structure of the fields by satisfying a postulate of local gauge covariance. The gauge principle is generally considered to be sufficient to define the full structure of gauge-field theories. This paper contains a critique of this usual point of view: firstly, by emphazising an intr

Abstract:
The mathematical problem of inverting the operator [Formula: see text] as it arises in the path-integral quantization of an Abelian gauge theory, such as quantum electrodynamics, when no gauge-fixing Lagrangian field density is included, is studied in this article.Making use of the fact that the Schwinger source functions, which are introduced for the purpose of generating Green's functions, are free of divergence, a result that follows from the conversion of the exponentiated action into a Gaussian form, the apparently noninvertible partial differential equation, [Formula: see text], can, by
