Algebraic Structures of Topological Yang-Mills Theory
We discuss the algebraic structure of the various BRST symmetries associated with topological Yang-Mills theory as a generalization of the BRS analysis developed for the non-Abelian anomaly in the local Yang-Mills theory. We show that our BRST algebra leads to an extended Russian formula and descent equations, which contains the descent equation of Yang-Mills theory as sub-relations. We propose...

1994. We review recent developments in the physics and mathematics of Yang-Mills theory in two dimensional spacetimes.
متن کاملTopological Yang Mills and Instantons
By defining an extended BRST operator that includes the chiral part of N=2 global supersymmetry, it is shown that the full N=2 offshell Super Yang Mills Action can be represented as an exact BRST term. The action written in this form suggests that the fields of the Topological Yang Mills theory can be defined in terms of composite fields of supersymmetry ghosts and N=2 fields in a natural way. ...
متن کاملLarge N 2D Yang-Mills Theory and Topological String Theory
We describe a topological string theory which reproduces many aspects of the 1/N expansion of SU(N) Yang-Mills theory in two spacetime dimensions in the zero coupling (A = 0) limit. The string theory is a modified version of topological gravity coupled to a topological sigma model with spacetime as target. The derivation of the string theory relies on a new interpretation of Gross and Taylor’s ...
متن کاملBRS and Anti-BRS Symmetry in Topological Yang–Mills Theory
We incorporate both BRS symmetry and anti-BRS symmetry into the quantisation of topological Yang–Mills theory. This refines previous treatments which consider only the BRS symmetry. Our formalism brings out very clearly the geometrical meaning of topological Yang–Mills theory in terms of connections and curvatures in an enlarged superspace; and its simple relationship to the geometry of ordinar...
