The Background Field Method for N = 2 Super Yang-Mills Theories in Harmonic Superspace

The background field method for N=2 super Yang-Mills theories in harmonic superspace is developed. The ghost structure of the theory is investigated. It is shown that the ghosts include two fermionic real omega-hypermultiplets (Faddeev-Popov ghosts) and one bosonic real omega-hypermultiplet (Nielsen-Kallosh ghost), all in the adjoint representation of the gauge group. The one-loop effective action is analysed in detail and it is found that its structure is determined only by the ghost corrections in the pure super Yang-Mills theory. As applied to the case of N=4 super Yang-Mills theory, realized in terms of N=2 superfields, the latter result leads to the remarkable conclusion that the one-loop effective action of the theory does not contain quantum corrections depending on the N=2 gauge superfield only. We show that the leading low-energy contribution to the one-loop effective action in the N=2 SU(2) super Yang-Mills theory coincides with Seiberg's perturbative holomorphic effective action.

Effective Action of the N = 2 Maxwell Multiplet in Harmonic Superspace

We present, in the N=2, D=4 harmonic superspace formalism, a general method for constructing the off-shell effective action of an N=2 abelian gauge superfield coupled to matter hypermultiplets. Using manifestly N=2 supersymmetric harmonic supergraph techniques, we calculate the low-energy corrections to the renormalized one-loop effective action in terms of N=2 (anti)chiral superfield strengths. For a harmonic gauge prepotential with vanishing vacuum expectation value, corresponding to massless hypermultiplets, the only non-trivial radiative corrections to appear are non-holomorphic. For a prepotential with non-zero vacuum value, which breaks the U(1)-factor in the N=2 supersymmetry automorphism group and corresponds to massive hypermultiplets, only non-trivial holomorphic corrections arise at leading order. These holomorphic contribution are consistent with Seiberg's quantum correction to the effective action, while the first non-holomorphic contribution in the massless case is the N=2 supersymmetrization of the Heisenberg-Euler effective Lagrangian.

Generalized canonical quantization of bosonic string model in massive background fields

A method of constructing a canonical gauge invariant quantum formulation for a non-gauge classical theory depending on a set of parameters is advanced and then applied to the theory of closed bosonic string interacting with massive background fields. It is shown that within the proposed formulation the correct linear equations of motion for background fields arise.

Supersymmetric Nambu-Jona-Lasinio Model in an External Gravitational Field

We investigate the effect of an external gravitational fields to the chiral symmetry breaking in the SUSY (supersymmetric) NJL (Nambu-Jona-Lasinio) model non-minimally interacting with external supergravity. Evaluating the effective potential in the leading order of the $1/N_{c}$-expansion and in the linear curvature approximation it is found the possibility of the chiral symmetry breaking in the SUSY NJL model in an external gravitational fields. In the broken phase the dynamically generated mass is analytically and numerically calculated.

Canonical Approach to String Theory in Massive Background Fields

A method of constructing a canonical gauge invariant quantum formulation for a non-gauge classical theory depending on a set of parameters is advanced and then applied to the theory of closed bosonic string interacting with massive background fields. Choosing an ordering prescription and developing a suitable regularization technique we calculate quantum guage algebra up to linear order in background fields. Requirement of closure for the algebra leads to equations of motion for massive background fields which appear to be consistent with the structure of string spectrum.

On a possibility to construct gauge invariant quantum formulation for non-gauge classical theory

A non-gauge dynamical system depending on parameters is considered. It is shown that these parameters can have such values that corresponding canonically quantized theory will be gauge invariant. The equations allowing to find these values of parameters are derived. The prescription under consideration is applied to obtaining the equation of motion for tachyon background field in closed bosonic string theory.

On structure of effective action in four-dimensional quantum dilaton supergravity

A general structure of effective action in new chiral superfield model associated with $N=1$, $D=4$ supergravity is investigated. This model corresponds to finite quantum field theory and does not demand the regularization and renormalization at effective action calculation. It is shown that in local approximation the effective action is defined by two objects called general superfield effective lagrangian and chiral superfield effective lagrangian. A proper-time method is generalized for calculation of these two effective lagrangians in superfield manner. Power expansion of the effective action in supercovariant derivatives is formulated and the lower terms of such an expansion are calculated in explicit superfield form.

On a Canonical Formulation of String Theory in Massive Background Fields

We propose a method of constructing a gauge invariant canonical formulation for non-gauge classical theory which depends on a set of parameters. Requirement of closure for algebra of operators generating quantum gauge transformations leads to restrictions on parameters of the theory. This approach is then applied to bosonic string theory coupled to massive background fields. It is shown that within the proposed canonical formulation the correct linear equations of motion for background fields arise.

Quantum dynamics of $N=1$, $D=4$ supergravity compensator

A new $N=1$ superfield theory in $D=4$ flat superspace is suggested. It describes dynamics of supergravity compensator and can be considered as a low-energy limit for $N=1$, $D=4$ superfield supergravity. The theory is shown to be renormalizable in infrared limit and infrared free. A quantum effective action is investigated in infrared domain.

The model is induced by supertrace anomaly of matter superfields in curved superspace and leads to effective theory of supergravity chiral compensator. A renormalization structure of this model is studied, one-loop counterterms are calculated and renormalization group equations are investigated.

Superfield effective potential

A superfield method of computing the effective potential in supersymmetric field theories is suggested. Analysis of the structure of the effective potential in the Wess-Zumino model is carried out. It is shown that the superfield effective potential is defined by three objects: kahlerian effective potential, chiral effective potential and auxiliary fields' effective potential. One-loop kahlerian effective potential is calculated using the superfield heat kernel technique. A corresponding superfield kernel is found in explicit form. Procedure for computing higher loop corrections is developed. First (two-loop) correction to chiral effective potential is found. Two-loop kahlerian effective potential is calculated.

Massive fields dynamics in open bosonic string theory

We consider the theory of open bosonic string in massive background fields. The general structure of renormalization is investigated. A general covariant action for a string in background fields of the first massive level is suggested and its symmetries are described. Equations of motion for the background fields are obtained by demanding that the renormalized operator of the energy-momentum tensor trace vanishes.

Induced Gravity from the Consistent String Theory Coupled with Two - Dimensional Quantum Gravity

The unified theory of string and two-dimensional quantum gravity is considered. The action for two-dimensional gravity is choosen in a well-known induced form and thus gravity posesses it's oun nontrivial dynamics even on the classical level. Three classically equivalent forms of the action of the unified theory are described, that is $D$, $D+1$ and $D+2$ formulations where the last one corresponds to the special kind of nonlinear sigma model on the background of classical two-dimensional metric. In all cases we find the action of the theory to be invariant under generalized symmetry transformations, and point out the arbitrariness of renormalization which reflects this symmetry. The one - loop counterterms are calculated in a general covariant gauge and also in conformal gauge. The difference between the counterterms for all classically equivalent variants of the theory is trivial on mass-shell. Since the different versions of the theory lead to the one-loop contributions which coincide on mass shell, the corresponding arbitrariness is related with the only generalized reparametrizations of the theory. Hence one can formulate the conditions of Weyl symmetry for any equivalent form of the action. Such a conditions are written for the $D+2$ formulation and then are reduced to other ones. The equations for the background interaction fields differ from the ones in standard approach and look much more complicated.

On the possible experimental manifestations of the torsion field at low energies

We construct the theoretical base for the search of the possible experimental manifestations of the torsion field at low energies. The weakrelativistic approximation to the Dirac equation in an external torsion field is considered. For the sake of generality we introduce the external electromagnetic field in parallel. The generalized (due to torsion dependent terms) Pauly equation contains new terms which have the different structure if compared with standard electromagnetic ones. Just the same takes place for the weakrelativistic equations for spin $\frac{1}{2}$ particle in an external torsion and electromagnetic field. It is given the brief description of the possible experiments.

Higher spins dynamics in the closed string theory

The general $σ$-model-type string action including both massless and massive higher spins background fields is suggested. Field equations for background fields are followed from the requirement of quantum Weyl invariance. It is shown that renormalization of the theory can be produced level by level. The detailed consideration of background fields structure and corresponding fields equations is given for the first massive level of the closed bosonic string.
