Poisson Structure Induced (Topological) Field Theories
A class of two dimensional field theories, based on (generically degenerate) Poisson structures and generalizing gravity-Yang-Mills systems, is presented. Locally, the solutions of the classical equations of motion are given. A general scheme for the quantization of the models in a Hamiltonian formulation is found.
متن کاملBalanced Topological Field Theories
We describe a class of topological field theories called “balanced topological field theories.” These theories are associated to moduli problems with vanishing virtual dimension and calculate the Euler character of various moduli spaces. We show that these theories are closely related to the geometry and equivariant cohomology of “iterated superspaces” that carry two differentials. We find the ...
متن کاملTopological Quantum Field Theories
We intruduce a new invariant for σ models (and foliations more generally) using the even pairing between K-homology and cyclic homology. We try to calculate it for the simplest case of foliations, namely principal bundles. We end up by discussing some possible physical applications primarily in Quantum Gravity and M-Theory. PACS classification: 11.10.-z; 11.15.-q; 11.30.-Ly
متن کاملTopological Quantum Field Theories
Following my plenary lecture on ICMP2000 I review my results concerning two closely related topics: topological quantum field theories and the problem of quantization of gauge theories. I start with old results (first examples of topological quantum field theories were constructed in my papers in late seventies) and I come to some new results, that were not published yet.
متن کاملTopological Quantum Field Theories
In this article, written primarily for physicists and geometers, we introduce the notion of TQFT, orbifold, and then we survey the construction of TQFTs originating from orbifolds such as Chen-Ruan cohomology and orbifold string topology.
