Maxwell symmetries and some applications

The Maxwell algebra is the result of enlarging the Poincaré algebra by six additional tensorial Abelian generators that make the fourmomenta non-commutative. We present a local gauge theory based on the Maxwell algebra with vierbein, spin connection and six additional geometric Abelian gauge fields. We apply this geometric framework to the construction of Maxwell gravity, which is described by the Einstein action plus a generalized cosmological term. We mention a Friedman-Robertson-Walker cosmological approximation to the Maxwell gravity field equations, with two scalar fields obtained from the additional gauge fields. Finally, we outline further developments of the Maxwell symmetries framework.

Super-Weyl Invariant 2D Supergravity, Anomaly and WZ Action

We present a candidate of anomaly and Wess Zumino action of the two dimensional supergravity coupling with matters in a super-Weyl invariant regularization. It is a generalization of the Weyl and the area preserving \Diff invariant formulation of two dimensional gravity theory.

Nambu-Goldstone Fields, Anomalies and WZ Terms

We construct the Wess-Zumino terms from anomalies in case of quasigroups for the following situations. One is effective gauge field theories of Nambu-Goldstone fields associated with spontaneously broken global symmetries and the other is anomalous gauge theories. The formalism that we will develop can be seen as a generalization of the non-linear realization method of Lie groups. As an example we consider 2d gravity with a Weyl invariant regularization

The WZ Term of the Spinning String and its On-shell Structure

The Wess-Zumino term of the spinning string is constructed in terms of their anomalies using an extended field-antifield formalism. A new feature appears from a fact that the non-anomalous transformations do not form a sub-group. The algebra of the extended variables closes only using the equations of motion derived from the WZ term.

One Loop Anomalies and Wess-Zumino Terms for General Gauge Theories

One loop anomalies and their dependence on antifields for general gauge theories are investigated within a Pauli-Villars regularization scheme. For on-shell theories {\it i.e.}, with open algebras or on-shell reducible theories, the antifield dependence is cohomologically non trivial. The associated Wess-Zumino term depends also on antifields. In the classical basis the antifield independent part of the WZ term is expressed in terms of the anomaly and finite gauge transformations by introducing gauge degrees of freedom as the extra dynamical variables. The complete WZ term is reconstructed from the antifield independent part.

Particle Mechanics Models with W-symmetries

We introduce a particle mechanics model with Sp($2M$) gauge invariance. Different partial gauge-fixings by means of sl(2) embeddings on the gauge algebra lead to reduced models which are invariant under diffeomorphisms and classical non-linear \W-transformations as the residual gauge symmetries thus providing a set of models of gauge and matter fields coupled in a \W-invariant way. The equations of motion for the matter variables give Lax operators in a matrix form. We examine several examples in detail and discuss the issue of integration of infinitesimal \W-transformations.

Finite W_3 Transformations in a Multi-time Approach

Classical {\W}$_3$ transformations are discussed as restricted diffeomorphism transformations (\W-Diff) in two-dimensional space. We formulate them by using Riemannian geometry as a basic ingredient. The extended {\W}$_3$ generators are given as particular combinations of Christoffel symbols. The defining equations of \W-Diff are shown to depend on these generators explicitly. We also consider the issues of finite transformations, global $SL(3)$ transformations and \W-Schwarzians.

Massive Analogue of Ashtekar-CJD Action

The action of Ashtekar gravity have been found by Cappovilla, Jacobson and Dell. It does not depend on the metric nor the signature of the space-time. The action has a similar structure as that of a massless relativistic particle. The former is naturally generalized by adding a term analogous to a mass term of the relativistic particle. The new action possesses a constant parameter regarded as a kind of a cosmological constant. It is interesting to find a covariant Einstein equation from the action. In order to do it we will examine how the geometrical quantities are determined from the non-metric action and how the Einstein equation follows from it.
