Canonical form of Euler-Lagrange equations and gauge symmetries
B. Geyer, D. M. Gitman, I. V. Tyutin
The structure of the Euler-Lagrange equations for a general Lagrangian theory is studied. For these equations we present a reduction procedure to the so-called canonical form. In t…
String Theory or Field Theory?
A. Marshakov
The status of string theory is reviewed, and major recent developments - especially those in going beyond perturbation theory in the string theory and quantum field theory framewor…
Graviton oscillations in the two-brane world
Andrei Barvinsky, Alexander Kamenshchik, Claus Kiefer +1
We study the braneworld effective action in the two-brane Randall-Sundrum model. In the framework of this essentially-nonlocal action we reveal the origin of an infinite sequence o…
Complex Curve of the Two Matrix Model and its Tau-function
Vladimir A. Kazakov, Andrei Marshakov
We study the hermitean and normal two matrix models in planar approximation for an arbitrary number of eigenvalue supports. Its planar graph interpretation is given. The study reve…
Supersymmetric D3 brane and N=4 SYM actions in plane wave backgrounds
R. R. Metsaev
The explicit (all-order in fermions) form of the kappa-symmetric brane probe action was previously found in the two maximally supersymmetric type IIB vacua: flat space and $Ad…
Fuzzy Phase Space Structure as Approach to Quantization
S. Mayburov
Modification of nonrelativistic phase space structure based on fuzzy ordered sets (Fosets) structure investigated as a possible quantization framework. In this model particle's …
Matrix models vs. Seiberg-Witten/Whitham theories
L. Chekhov, A. Mironov
We discuss the relation between matrix models and the Seiberg--Witten type (SW) theories, recently proposed by Dijkgraaf and Vafa. In particular, we prove that the partition functi…
Duality symmetry of the p-form effective action and super trace of the twisted de Rham complex
P. Gilkey, K. Kirsten, D. Vassilevich +1
We consider quantum p-form fields interacting with a background dilaton. We calculate the variation with respect to the dilaton of a difference of the effective actions in the mode…
Discrete Spectra of Charged Black Holes
Andrei Barvinsky, Saurya Das, Gabor Kunstatter
Bekenstein proposed that the spectrum of horizon area of quantized black holes must be discrete and uniformly spaced. We examine this proposal in the context of spherically symmetr…
Singular Centre in Quantum Mechanics as a Black Hole
A. E. Shabad
We consider the radial Schroedinger equation with an attractive potential singular in the origin. The additional continuum of states caused by the singularity, that usually remain…
Wilson loops in N=4 SYM theory: rotation in S5
A. A. Tseytlin, K. Zarembo
We study Wilson loops in N=4 SYM theory which are non-constant in the scalar (S5) directions and open string solutions associated with them in the context of AdS/CFT correspondence…
On vacuum-vacuum amplitude and Bogoliubov coefficients
A. I. Nikishov
Even if the electromagnetic field does not create pairs, virtual pairs lead to the appearance of a phase in vacuum-vacuum amplitude. This makes it necessary to distinguish the in-…
Nonlocal braneworld action: an alternative to Kaluza-Klein description
Andrei Barvinsky, Alexander Kamenshchik, Andreas Rathke +1
We construct the nonlocal braneworld action in the two-brane Randall-Sundrum model in a holographic setup alternative to Kaluza-Klein description: the action is written as a functi…
N=1 Supersymmetric Theory of Higher Spin Gauge Fields in AdS(5) at the Cubic Level
K. B. Alkalaev, M. A. Vasiliev
We formulate gauge invariant interactions of totally symmetric tensor and tensor-spinor higher spin gauge fields in AdS(5) that properly account for higher-spin-gravitational inter…
Seiberg-Witten maps and noncommutative Yang-Mills theories for arbitrary gauge groups
Glenn Barnich, Friedemann Brandt, Maxim Grigoriev
Seiberg-Witten maps and a recently proposed construction of noncommutative Yang-Mills theories (with matter fields) for arbitrary gauge groups are reformulated so that their existe…
Higher Spin Conserved Currents in Symmetric Spacetime
M. A. Vasiliev
Infinite set of higher spin conserved charges is found for the symmetric dynamical systems in $\f{1}{2} M (M+1)$-dimensional generalized spacetime $\M_M$. Since the dynami…
New nonlocal effective action
A. O. Barvinsky, V. F. Mukhanov
We suggest a new method for the calculation of the nonlocal part of the effective action. It is based on resummation of perturbation series for the heat kernel and its functional t…
Massless arbitrary spin fields in AdS(5)
R. R. Metsaev
Free arbitrary spin massless and self-dual massive fields propagating in are investigated. We study totally symmetric and mixed symmetry fields on an equal footing. Light-c…
Non-Abelian Confinement via Abelian Flux Tubes in Softly Broken N=2 SUSY QCD
A. Marshakov, A. Yung
We study confinement in softly broken N=2 SUSY QCD with gauge group SU(N_c) and N_f hypermultiplets of fundamental matter (quarks) when the Coulomb branch is lifted by small mass o…
Exactly solvable model of superstring in Ramond-Ramond plane wave background
R. R. Metsaev, A. A. Tseytlin
We describe in detail the solution of type IIB superstring theory in the maximally supersymmetric plane-wave background with constant null Ramond-Ramond 5-form field strength. The…
Logarithmic Conformal Field Theories via Logarithmic Deformations
J. Fjelstad, J. Fuchs, S. Hwang +2
We construct logarithmic conformal field theories starting from an ordinary conformal field theory -- with a chiral algebra C and the corresponding space of states V -- via a two-s…
Hamiltonization of theories with degenerate coordinates
D. M. Gitman, I. V. Tyutin
We consider a class of Lagrangian theories where part of the coordinates does not have any time derivatives in the Lagrange function (we call such coordinates degenerate). We advoc…
Seiberg-Witten maps in the context of the antifield formalism
G. Barnich, F. Brandt, M. Grigoriev
The formulation of Seiberg-Witten maps from the point of view of consistent deformations of gauge theories in the context of the Batalin-Vilkovisky antifield formalism is reviewed.…
On limits of superstring in AdS_5 x S^5
A. A. Tseytlin
The superstring action in AdS_5 x S^5 depends on two parameters: the inverse string tension a' and the radius R. The standard AdS/CFT correspondence requires that the string coordi…
