Geometry and Duality in Supersymmetric Σ - Models
The Supersymmetric Dual Sigma Model (SDSM) is a local field theory introduced to be nonlocally equivalent to the Supersymmetric Chiral nonlinear σ-Model (SCM), this dual equivalence being proven by explicit canonical transformation in tangent space. This model is here reconstructed in superspace and identified as a chiral-entwined supersymmetrization of the Dual Sigma Model (DSM). This analysis...
متن کاملHarmonic potentials for quaternionic symmetric σ-models
We construct N = 2 superspace Lagrangians for quaternionic symmetric σmodels G/H × Sp(1), or equivalently, quaternionic potentials for these symmetric spaces. They are homogeneous H invariant polynomials of order 4 which are similar to the quadratic Casimir operator of H. The construction is based on an identity for the structure constants specific for quaternionic symmetric spaces. † On leave ...
متن کاملScalar-Induced Compactifications in Higher Dimensional Supergravities
We discuss compactifications of higher dimensional supergravities which are induced by scalars. In particular, we consider vector multiplets coupled to the supergravity multiplet in the case of D = 9,8 and D = 7 minimal supergravities. These vector multiplets contain scalars, which parametrize coset spaces of the general form SO(10−D, n)/SO(10−D)×SO(n), where n is the number of vector multiplet...
متن کاملDuality and Canonical Transformations
We present a brief review on the canonical transformation description of some duality symmetries in string and gauge theories. In particular, we consider abelian and non-abelian T-dualities in closed and open string theories as well as S-duality in abelian and non-abelian non-supersymmetric gauge theories.

متن کاملExact duality transformations for sigma models and gauge theories
We present an exact duality transformation in the framework of Statistical Mechanics for various lattice models with non-Abelian global or local symmetries. The transformation applies to sigma models with variables in a compact Lie group G with global G×G-symmetry (the chiral model) and with variables in coset spaces G/H and a global G-symmetry (for example, the non-linear O(N) or RPN models) i...
