p′-brane solutions to rank p+1 composite antisymmetric tensor field theories of the kind developed by Guendelman, Nissimov and Pacheva are found when the dimensionality of space–time is D=(p+1)+(p′+1). These field theories possess an infinite-dimensional group of global Noether symmetries, that of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms of the target space of the scalar primitive field constituents. Crucial in the construction of p′ brane solutions are the duality transformations of the fields and the local gauge field theory formulation of extended objects given by Aurilia, Spallucci and Smailagic. Field equations are rotated into Bianchi identities after the duality transformation is performed and the Clebsch potentials associated with the Hamilton–Jacobi formulation of the p′ brane can be identified with the duals of the original scalar primitive constituents. Explicit examples are worked out the analog of S and T duality symmetry are discussed. Different types of Kalb–Ramond actions are given and a particular covariant action is presented which bears a direct relation to the light cone gauge p-brane action.

We review our recent work on the low-energy actions and the realizations of strong-weak coupling dualities in non-perturbative phases of compact antisymmetric tensor field theories due to p-brane condensation. As examples we derive and discuss the confining string and confining membrane actions obtained from compact vector and tensor theories in 4D. We also mention the relevance of our results for the description of the Hagedorn phase transition of finite temperature strings.

Antisymmetric Tensor Field

A novel approach to evaluate the Wilson loops associated with a SU (∞) gauge theory in terms of pure string degrees of freedom is presented. It is based on the Guendelman–Nissimov–Pacheva formulation of composite antisymmetric tensor field theories of area (volume) preserving diffeomorphisms which admit p-brane solutions and which provide a new route to scale-symmetry breaking and confinement in Yang–Mills theory. The quantum effects are discussed and we evaluate the vacuum expectation values (VEV) of the Wilson loops in the large N limit of the quenched reduced SU (N) Yang–Mills theory in terms of a path integral involving pure string degrees of freedom. The quenched approximation is necessary to avoid a crumpling of the string worldsheet giving rise to very large Hausdorff dimensions as pointed out by Olesen. The approach is also consistent with the recent results based on the AdS/CFT correspondence and dual QCD models (dual Higgs model with dual Dirac strings). More general Loop wave equations in C-spaces (Clifford manifolds) are proposed in terms of generalized holographic variables that contain the dynamics of an aggregate of closed branes (p-loops) of various dimensionalities. This allows us to construct the higher-dimensional version of Wilson loops in terms of antisymmetric tensor fields of arbitrary rank which couple to p-branes of different dimensionality.

We show that for a string moving in a background consisting of maximally symmetric gravity, dilaton field and second rank antisymmetric tensor field, the O(d) ⊗ O(d) transformation on the vacuum solutions gives inequivalent solutions that are not maximally symmetric. We then show that the usual physical meaning of maximal symmetry can be made to remain unaltered even if torsion is present and illustrate this through two toy models by determining the torsion fields, the metric and Killing vectors. Finally we show that under the O(d) ⊗ O(d) transformation this generalized maximal symmetry can be preserved under certain conditions. This is interesting in the context of string related cosmological backgrounds.

We develop a BRST symmetric gaugeon formalism for the Abelian rank-2 antisymmetric tensor field in the Lorentz-breaking framework. The Lorentz-breaking is achieved here by considering a proper subgroup of Lorentz group together with translation. In this scenario, the gaugeon fields together with the standard fields of the Abelian rank-2 antisymmetric tensor theory get mass. In order to develop the gaugeon formulation for this theory in very special relativity (VSR), we first introduce a set of dipole vector fields as a quantum gauge freedom to the action. In order to quantize the dipole vector fields, the VSR-modified gauge-fixing and corresponding ghost action are constructed as the classical action is invariant under a VSR-modified gauge transformation. Further, we present a Type I gaugeon formalism for the Abelian rank-2 antisymmetric tensor field theory in VSR. The gauge structures of Fock space constructed with the help of BRST charges are also discussed.
