Topological Mass Generation in Four Dimensions
Gia Dvali, R. Jackiw, So - Young Pi
Schwinger's mechanism for mass generation relies on topological structures of a 2-dimensional gauge theory. In the same manner, corresponding 4-dimensional topological entities giv…
Weyl Symmetry and the Liouville Theory
R. Jackiw
Flat-space conformal invariance and curved-space Weyl invariance are simply related in dimensions greater than two. In two dimensions the Liouville theory presents an exceptional s…
Weyl Invariant Dynamics in 3 Dimensions
R. Jackiw
We analyze a variety of Weyl invariant dynamical problems in three dimensions.
Remembering Sergio Fubini
R. Jackiw
The author recollects Sergio Fubini's impact on field theory (radial quantization, merons, conformal quantum mechanics) and on MIT.
Topological Aspects of Gauge Theories
R. Jackiw
To appear in Encyclopedia of Mathematical Physics, published by Elsevier in early 2006. Comments/corrections welcome. The article surveys topological aspects in gauge theories.
