On the Interacting Chiral Gauge Field Theory in D = 6 and the Off - Shell Equivalence of Dual Born - Infeld - Like Actions
نویسنده
چکیده
A canonical action describing the interaction of chiral gauge fields in D = 6 Minkowski space-time is constructed. In a particular partial gauge fixing it reduces to the action found by Perry and Schwarz. The additional gauge symmetries are used to show the off-shell equivalence of the dimensional reduction to D = 5 Minkowski space-time of the chiral gauge field canonical action and the Born-Infeld canonical action describing an interacting D = 5 Abelian vector field. Its extension to improve the on-shell equivalence arguments of dual D-brane actions to off-shell ones is discussed.

Interacting Chiral Gauge Fields in Six Dimensions and Born–Infeld Theory
Dimensional reduction of a self-dual tensor gauge field in 6d gives an Abelian vector gauge field in 5d. We derive the conditions under which an interacting 5d theory of an Abelian vector gauge field is the dimensional reduction of a 6d Lorentz invariant interacting theory of a self-dual tensor. Then we specialize to the particular 6d theory that gives 5d Born–Infeld theory. The field equation ...
متن کاملSelf-Duality of a Topologically Massive Born-Infeld Theory
We consider self-duality in a 2 + 1 dimensional gauge theory containing both the Born-Infeld and the Chern-Simons terms. We introduce a Born-Infeld inspired generalization of the Proca term and show that the corresponding model is equivalent to the Born-Infeld-Chern-Simons model. email: [email protected] email: [email protected] 1 Many years ago Townsend et. al. studied self-duality in gauge...
متن کاملThe Non-Abelian Born-Infeld Action and Noncommutative gauge theory
In this paper we explicitly show the equivalence between the non-Abelian Born-Infeld action, which was proposed by Tseytlin as an effective action on several D-branes, and its noncommutative counterpart for slowly varying fields. This confirms the equivalence between the two descriptions of the D-branes using an ordinary gauge theory with a constant B field background and a noncommutative gauge...
متن کاملTowards Higher-n Superextensions of Born-infeld Theory
The main source of current interest in superextensions of the Born-Infeld (or Dirac-Born-Infeld) action is the fact that these super BI actions constitute an essential part of the worldvolume actions of Dp-branes (see [1] and refs. therein). It is tempting to formulate super BI actions in a manifestly supersymmetric way using an off-shell superfield approach. In this approach the worldvolume SU...
متن کاملDerivative corrections to Dirac-Born-Infeld Lagrangian and non-commutative gauge theory
We consider the constraints on the effective Lagrangian of the rank-one gauge field on Dbranes imposed by the equivalence between the description by ordinary gauge theory and that by non-commutative gauge theory in the presence of a constant B field. It is shown that we can consistently construct the two-derivative corrections to the Dirac-Born-Infeld Lagrangian up to the quartic order of field...
