Real-Time Thermal Propagators and the QED Effective Action for an External Magnetic Field

P. Elmfors, D. Persson, B. -S. Skagerstam

The thermal averaged real-time propagator of a Dirac fermion in a static uniform magnetic field is derived. At non-zero chemical potential and temperature we find explicitly th…

Representations of the -algebra and the loop representation in -dimensions

J. Hallin

We consider the phase-space of Yang-Mills on a cylindrical space-time () and the associated algebra of gauge-invariant functions, the -variables. We solve th…

A Note on the Relation between Different Forms of Superparticle Dynamics'

Martin Cederwall

A formulation of $D\is 10$ superparticle dynamics is given that contain space-time and twistor variables. The set of constraints is entirely first class, and gauge conditions may b…

Frustrated Honeycomb Heisenberg Antiferromagnet: A Schwinger Boson Approach

Ann Mattsson, Per Fröjdh, Torbjörn Einarsson

We analyze the frustrated Heisenberg antiferromagnet defined on a honeycomb lattice using a Schwinger-boson mean-field theory. The spin-wave velocity and the susceptibility are pre…

The Seven-sphere and its Kac-Moody Algebra

Martin Cederwall, Christian R. Preitschopf

We investigate the seven-sphere as a group-like manifold and its extension to a Kac-Moody-like algebra. Covariance properties and tensorial composition of spinors under are d…

The Vacuum Energy Density for Spherical and Cylindrical Universes

E. Elizalde

The vacuum energy density (Casimir energy) corresponding to a massless scalar quantum field living in different universes (mainly no-boundary ones), in several dimensions, is calcu…

Gauge fixing and abelianization in simple BRST quantization

Robert Marnelius

In a previous paper \cite{Simple} it was shown that the BRST charge for any gauge model with a Lie algebra symmetry may be decomposed as $Q=\del+\del^†,\;\;\;\del^2=\del^{†2}=0…

strings, parafermions and the Ising model

M. Freeman, P. West

We show that any covariant scattering amplitude of the string will contain, as part of its integrand, a factor that obeys the differential equations satisfied by an Ising mod…

The BRST formulation of G/H WZNW models

Stephen Hwang, Henric Rhedin

We consider a BRST approach to G/H coset WZNW models, {\it i.e.} a formulation in which the coset is defined by a BRST condition. We will give the precise ingrediences needed for t…

Charged Boson Stars and Vacuum Instabilities

P. Jetzer, P. Liljenberg, B. -S. Skagerstam

We consider charged boson stars and study their effect on the structure of the vacuum. For very compact particle like ``stars", with constituent mass close to the Planck ma…
