Wilson Loops on Riemann Surfaces, Liouville Theory and Covariantization of the Conformal Group
Marco Matone, Paolo Pasti
The covariantization procedure is usually referred to the translation operator, that is the derivative. Here we introduce a general method to covariantize arbitrary differential op…
Covariant actions for models with non-linear twisted self-duality
Paolo Pasti, Dmitri Sorokin, Mario Tonin
We describe a systematic way of the generalization, to models with non-linear duality, of the space-time covariant and duality-invariant formulation of duality-symmetric theories i…
BLG-motivated Lagrangian formulation for the chiral two-form gauge field in D=6 and M5-branes
Paolo Pasti, Igor Samsonov, Dmitri Sorokin +1
We reveal non-manifest gauge and SO(1,5) Lorentz symmetries in the Lagrangian description of a six-dimensional free chiral field derived from the Bagger-Lambert-Gustavsson model in…
Compactified Strings as Quantum Statistical Partition Function on the Jacobian Torus
Marco Matone, Paolo Pasti, Sergey Shadchin +1
We show that the solitonic contribution of compactified strings corresponds to the quantum statistical partition function of a free particle living on higher dimensional spaces. In…
Superfield Theories in Tensorial Superspaces and the Dynamics of Higher Spin Fields
Igor Bandos, Paolo Pasti, Dmitri Sorokin +1
We present the superfield generalization of free higher spin equations in tensorial superspaces and analyze tensorial supergravities with GL(n) and SL(n) holonomy as a possible fra…
The Space Filling Dirichlet 3-Brane in N=2, D=4 Superspace
Igor Bandos, Paolo Pasti, Andrey Pokotilov +2
We discuss a four-dimensional Volkov-Akulov supersymmetric theory on a D3-brane with N=2 supersymmetry broken down to N=1.
