Mirror Symmetry as a Gauge Symmetry [PDF]
Physics Letters B, 1994 It is shown that in string theory mirror duality is a gauge symmetry (a Weyl transformation) in the moduli space of $N=2$ backgrounds on group manifolds, and we conjecture on the possible generalization to other backgrounds, such as Calabi-Yau manifolds ...

Gauge-Higgs Unification Models in Six Dimensions with S2/Z2 Extra Space and GUT Gauge Symmetry [PDF]
Advances in High Energy Physics, 2012 We review gauge-Higgs unification models based on gauge theories defined on six-dimensional spacetime with S2/Z2 topology in the extra spatial dimensions. Nontrivial boundary conditions are imposed on the extra S2/Z2 space.

Reducible gauge symmetry versus unfree gauge symmetry in Hamiltonian formalism
Nuclear Physics B, 2021 The unfree gauge symmetry implies that gauge variation of the action functional vanishes provided for the gauge parameters are restricted by the differential equations.

Symmetric Gapped Interfaces of SPT and SET States: Systematic Constructions
Physical Review X, 2018 Symmetry-protected topological (SPT) states have boundary ’t Hooft anomalies that obstruct the effective boundary theory realized in its own dimension with UV completion and with an on-site G-symmetry.

Twist Symmetry and Gauge Invariance [PDF]
Physics Letters B, 2006 By applying properly the concept of twist symmetry to the gauge invariant theories, we arrive at the conclusion that previously proposed in the literature noncommutative gauge theories, with the use of $\star$-product, are the correct ones, which possess

Exploring Residual Gauge Symmetry Breaking [PDF]
Proceedings of XXIVth International Symposium on Lattice Field Theory — PoS(LAT2006), 2006 Simulations of pure-gauge SU(2) lattice gauge theory are performed in the minimal Coulomb gauge. This leaves a residual or remnant gauge symmetry still active which is global in three directions but still local in one.

Operator Gauge Symmetry in QED [PDF]
Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2006 In this paper, operator gauge transformation, first introduced by Kobe, is applied to Maxwell's equations and continuity equation in QED. The gauge invariance is satisfied after quantization of electromagnetic fields.

Discrete theta angles, symmetries and anomalies
SciPost Physics, 2021 Gauge theories in various dimensions often admit discrete theta angles, that arise from gauging a global symmetry with an additional symmetry protected topological (SPT) phase.

International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2003 We propose a new procedure to embed second class systems by introducing Wess–Zumino (WZ) fields in order to unveil hidden symmetries existent in the models. This formalism is based on the direct imposition that the new Hamiltonian must be invariant by gauge-symmetry transformations.
