On the Berkovits Covariant Quantization of GS Superstring
Ichiro Oda, Mario Tonin
We study the covariant quantization of the Green-Schwarz (GS) superstrings proposed recently by Berkovits. In particular, we reformulate the Berkovits approach in a way that clarif…
Higgs Mechanism in the Presence of a Topological Term
Ichiro Oda
In cases of both abelian and nonabelian gauge groups, we study the Higgs mechanism in the topologically massive gauge theories in an arbitrary space-time dimension. We show that wh…
Higgs Mechanism with a Topological Term
Ichiro Oda
In cases of both abelian and nonabelian gauge groups, we consider the Higgs mechanism in topologically massive gauge theories in an arbitrary space-time dimension. It is shown that…
Trapping of Nonabelian Gauge Fields on a Brane
Ichiro Oda
We show that as in abelian gauge fields, nonabelian gauge fields are also trapped on a brane in the Randall-Sundrum model by applying a new mechanism based on topological Higgs mec…
A New Mechanism for Trapping of Photon
Ichiro Oda
We propose a new mechanism for trapping bulk gauge field, giving rise to a massless photon on a flat Minkowski 3-brane in the Randall-Sundrum model in five space-time dimensions. T…
Kaluza-Klein Reduction in a Warp Geometry Revisited
Ichiro Oda
We study the Kaluza-Klein dimensional reduction of zero-modes of bulk antisymmetric tensor fields on a non-compact extra dimension in the Randall-Sundrum model. It is shown that in…
