Interacting D2-branes in 10 dimensions and non abelian Born-Infeld theory
R. Gianvittorio, A. Restuccia, J. Stephany
In this paper we extend the bosonic -brane action in D=10 obtained by duality from the D=11 membrane wrapped on to an SU(2) non abelian system. This system presents only f…
Non Abelian TQFT and scattering of self dual field configuration
R. Gianvittorio, A. Restuccia, J. F. Sanchez
A non-abelian topological quantum field theory describing the scattering of self-dual field configurations over topologically non-trivial Riemann surfaces, arising from the reducti…
On the QFT relation between Donaldson-Witten invariants and Floer homology theory
R. Gianvittorio, A. Restuccia
A TQFT in terms of general gauge fixing functions is discussed. In a covariant gauge it yields the Donaldson-Witten TQFT. The theory is formulated on a generalized phase space wher…
BRST Formulation of 4-Monopoles
R. Gianvittorio, I. Martin, A. Restuccia
A supersymmetric gauge invariant action is constructed over any 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold describing Witten's theory of 4-monopoles. The topological supersymmetric algebra…
The gauge invariant lagrangian for Seiberg-Witten topological monopoles
R. Gianvittorio, I. Martin, A. Restuccia
A topological gauge invariant lagrangian for Seiberg-Witten monopole equations is constructed. The action is invariant under a huge class of gauge transformations which after BRST…
BRST QUANTIZATION OF NON-ABELIAN BF TOPOLOGICAL THEORIES
M. I. Caicedo, R. Gianvittorio, A. Restuccia +1
The off-shell nilpotent BRST charge and the BRST invariant effective action for non-abelian BF topological theories over D-dimensional manifolds are explicitly constructed. These t…
A New Action Principle for Witten's Topological Field Theory
R. Gianvittorio, A. Restuccia, J. Stephany
In this letter a new gauge invariant, metric independent action is introduced from which Witten's Topological Quantum Field Theory may be obtained after gauge fixing using standard…
