Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract In this article I consider type II superstring in the pure spinor formulation with constant background fields in the context of T‐dualization. First, I prove that bosonic and fermionic T‐dualization commute using already known T‐dual transformation laws for bosonic and fermionic T‐dualization.

Principles of BRST quantization
Nuclear Physics B, 1989 Abstract The BRST quantization as a quantization method ised. It is pointed out that all formal manipulations are only valid if all inner products in the original state space are finite. This restriction is also shown to be necessary in order to obtain the correct results for trivial models.

Comments on the RG‐Flow in Open String Field Theory
Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract We define a metric G$G$ on the KBc‐subalgebra modulo gauge and describe the worldsheet RG‐flow as the gradient flow of the action of cubic open string field theory, where the flow lines are kink‐solitons. In particular, for a constant tachyon the gradient flow equations are equivalent to the RG‐equations. Additionally, a more general family of

Quantization of Weyl invariant unimodular gravity with antisymmetric ghost fields
European Physical Journal C: Particles and FieldsThe enforcement of the unimodularity condition in a gravity theory by means of a Lagrange multiplier leads, in general, to inconsistencies upon quantization.

Holomorphic field theories and higher algebra
Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 57, Issue 10, Page 2903-2974, October 2025.Abstract Aimed at complex geometers and representation theorists, this survey explores higher dimensional analogs of the rich interplay between Riemann surfaces, Virasoro and Kac‐Moody Lie algebras, and conformal blocks. We introduce a panoply of examples from physics — field theories that are holomorphic in nature, such as holomorphic Chern‐Simons ...

Nuclear Physics BWe perform the constraint analysis of a three (2 + 1)-dimensional (3D) field-theoretic example for Hodge theory (i) at the classical level within the ambit of Lagrangian formulation, and (ii) at the quantum level within the framework of Becchi-Rouet ...

A pure spinor twistor description of the D = 10 superparticle
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 We present a novel twistor formulation of the ten-dimensional massless super-particle. This formulation is based on the introduction of pure spinor variables through a field redefinition of another model for the superparticle, and in the new description ...

Annalen der Physik, Volume 537, Issue 9, September 2025.Applications of the Dressing Field Method are reviewed and further expanded to the very foundations of the supersymmetric framework, where it allows to build relational supersymmetric field theory. Furthermore, a novel approach is proposed giving a unified description of fermionic matter fields and bosonic gauge fields: a Matter‐Interaction ...

Proca theory from the spinning worldline
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We obtain Proca field theory from the quantisation of the N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 supersymmetric worldline upon supplementing the graded BRST-algebra with an extra multiplet of oscillators.
