Factorization Condition

Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories coupled to supergravity are analyzed by using the tangent bundle to a supergroup manifold as geometrical framework. The factorization condition imposed on these theories is considered from this point of view. The so-called H-gauge transformation for both, the super Yang-Mills and supergravity one-forms gauge fields are obtained as a consequence of a change of trivialization in the corresponding coset manifold. Also, we briefly point out the existence of factorized solutions not diffeomorphically equivalent for the set of pseudo-connections one-forms or gauge fields.

In the recently proposed generalization of the Yang–Mills theory, the group of gauge transformation gets essentially enlarged. This enlargement involves a mixture of the internal and space–time symmetries. The resulting group is an extension of the Poincaré group with infinitely many generators which carry internal and space–time indices. The matrix representations of the extended Poincaré generators are expressible in terms of Pauli–Lubanski vector in one case and in terms of its invariant derivative in another. In the later case the generators of the gauge group are transversal to the momentum and are projecting the non-Abelian tensor gauge fields into the transversal plane, keeping only their positively definite spacelike components.

Gauge Variation

Kuat medan tensor yang ditransformasikan secara homogen terhadap perluasan transformasi gauge memenuhi bentuk sifat invarian gauge. Analisa invarian gauge dalam bantuk integeralnya memperlihatkan hubungan dengan koordinat ruang-waktu yang menunjukan bentuk baru dari topologi Lagrangian. Sifat invarian dari bentuk Pontryagin-Chern terhadap kuat medan tensor non-Abelian dan lemma Poincare dapat digunakan untuk mengkontruksi bentuk ChSAS yang menunjukan sifat quasi-invarian dibawah transformasi gauge. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk membuktikan bahwa kuat medan tensor Yang-Mills dari bentuk ChSAS memilik variasi gauge anomali non-Abelian seperti pada bentuk Chern-Simons. Integrasi bentuk ChSAS menghasilkan dimensi-4, 6 dan 8 variasi gauge genap dan memperlihatkan hubungan dengan bentuk Chern-Simons dimensi-3 dan 5 untuk variasi gauge ganjil. Bentuk ChSAS memperlihatkan variabel lebih kompleks yang menujukan sifat berosilasi. Tensors field strength transformation homogeneously to extend gauge transformation fulfilling charateristic gauge invariant form. Analysis gauge invariant in integral form shows corresponding with space-time coordinate that prove new topology Lagrangians form. Furthermore invariant charateristic of Pontryagin-Chern to non-Abelian tensor gauge fields and lemma Poincare used to contruct ChSAS forms which shows quasi-inavriant under gauge transformation. This paper aims to prove Yang-Mills tensor gauge field of ChSAS forms has variation non-Abelian anomaly like Chern-Simons forms. The integration ChSAS forms resulted 4, 6 and 8-dimensional even gauge variation which also correspond 3 and 5-dimensional odd gauge variation Chern-Simons forms. The ChSAS forms also showed complex variable and osilation.  Keywords: Pontryagin-Chern, Kuat medan tensor non-Abelian, Chern-Simans-Antoniadis-Savvidy, Anomali Non-Abelian.

Using a gauge symmetry derived by applying the Dirac constraint formalism to supergravity with a cosmological term in 2 + 1 dimensions, we construct a gauge theory with many characteristics of Yang-Mills theory. The gauge transformation mixes two Bosonic fields and one Fermionic field.

The anti-self-duality equations for gauge fields in d = 4 and a generalization of these equations to dimension d = 4n are considered. For gauge fields with values in an arbitrary semisimple Lie algebra [Formula: see text] we introduce the ansatz which reduces the anti-self-duality equations in the Euclidean space ℝ4n to a system of equations breaking up into the well known Nahm's equations and some linear equations for scalar field φ.

Abstract A definition of a convolution of tensor fields on group manifolds is given, which is then generalised to generic homogeneous spaces. This is applied to the product of gauge fields in the context of ‘gravity = gauge × gauge’. In particular, it is shown that the linear Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) gauge transformations of two Yang-Mills gauge fields generate the linear BRST diffeomorphism transformations of the graviton. This facilitates the definition of the ‘gauge × gauge’ convolution product on, for example, the static Einstein universe, and more generally for ultrastatic spacetimes with compact spatial slices.

Type Interaction

We discuss the issue of going off-shell in the proper time formalism. This is done by keeping a finite world sheet cutoff. We construct one example of an off-shell covariant Klein-Gordon type interaction. For a suitable choice of the gauge transformation of the scalar field, gauge invariance is maintained off-mass-shell. However, at the second order in the gauge field interaction, one finds that [U(1)] gauge invariance is violated due to the finite cutoff. Interestingly, we find, to the lowest order, that by adding a massive mode with appropriate gauge transformation laws to the sigma model background, we can restore gauge invariance. The gauge transformation law is found to be consistent, to the order calculated, with what one expects from the interacting equation of motion of the massive field. We also extend some previous discussion on applying the proper time formalism for propagating gauge particles, to the interacting (i.e. Yang-Mills) case.

We compute the effective potential of SU(2) Yang–Mills theory using the background field method and the Faddeev–Niemi decomposition of the gauge fields. In particular, we find that the potential will depend on the values of two scalar fields in the decomposition and that its structure will give rise to a symmetry breaking.

Vector Gauge

We suggest an extension of the gauge principle which includes tensor gauge fields. In this extension of the Yang–Mills theory the vector gauge boson becomes a member of a bigger family of gauge bosons of arbitrary large integer spins. The proposed extension is essentially based on the extension of the Poincaré algebra and the existence of an appropriate transversal representations. The invariant Lagrangian is expressed in terms of new higher-rank field strength tensors. It does not contain higher derivatives of tensor gauge fields and all interactions take place through three- and four-particle exchanges with a dimensionless coupling constant. We calculated the scattering amplitudes of non-Abelian tensor gauge bosons at tree level, as well as their one-loop contribution into the Callan–Symanzik beta function. This contribution is negative and corresponds to the asymptotically free theory. Considering the contribution of tensorgluons of all spins into the beta function we found that it is leading to the theory which is conformally invariant at very high energies. The proposed extension may lead to a natural inclusion of the standard theory of fundamental forces into a larger theory in which vector gauge bosons, leptons and quarks represent a low-spin subgroup. We consider a possibility that inside the proton and, more generally, inside hadrons there are additional partons — tensorgluons, which can carry a part of the proton momentum. The extension of QCD influences the unification scale at which the coupling constants of the Standard Model merge, shifting its value to lower energies.

Augmented Superfield Formalism

In the available literature, only the Becchi–Rouet–Stora–Tyutin (BRST) symmetries are known for the Jackiw–Pi model of the three (2 + 1)-dimensional (3D) massive non-Abelian gauge theory. We derive the off-shell nilpotent [Formula: see text] and absolutely anticommuting (sbsab + sabsb = 0) (anti-)BRST transformations s(a)b corresponding to the usual Yang–Mills gauge transformations of this model by exploiting the “augmented” superfield formalism where the horizontality condition and gauge invariant restrictions blend together in a meaningful manner. There is a non-Yang–Mills (NYM) symmetry in this theory, too. However, we do not touch the NYM symmetry in our present endeavor. This superfield formalism leads to the derivation of an (anti-)BRST invariant Curci–Ferrari restriction, which plays a key role in the proof of absolute anticommutativity of s(a)b. The derivation of the proper anti-BRST symmetry transformations is important from the point of view of geometrical objects called gerbes. A novel feature of our present investigation is the derivation of the (anti-)BRST transformations for the auxiliary field ρ from our superfield formalism, which is neither generated by the (anti-)BRST charges nor obtained from the requirements of nilpotency and (or) absolute anticommutativity of the (anti-)BRST symmetries for our present 3D non-Abelian 1-form gauge theory.
