Noncommutative linear sigma models [PDF]
We examine noncommutative linear sigma models with U(N) global symmetry groups at the one-loop quantum level, and contrast the results with our previous study of the noncommutative O(N) linear sigma models where we have shown that Nambu-Goldstone symmetry realization is inconsistent with continuum renormalization.

Self-dual supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models [PDF]
In four-dimensional N=1 Minkowski superspace, general nonlinear sigma models with four-dimensional target spaces may be realised in term of CCL (chiral and complex linear) dynamical variables which consist of a chiral scalar, a complex linear scalar and ...

Non-compact nonlinear sigma models
The target space of a nonlinear sigma model is usually required to be positive definite to avoid ghosts. We introduce a unique class of nonlinear sigma models where the target space metric has a Lorentzian signature, thus the associated group being non ...

Junctions of mass-deformed nonlinear sigma models on SO(2N)/U(N) and Sp(N)/U(N). Part II
We construct three-pronged junctions of mass-deformed nonlinear sigma models on SO(2N)/U(N) and Sp(N )/U(N ) for generic N. We study the nonlinear sigma models on the Grassmann manifold or on the complex projective space.

Integrable sigma models and perturbed coset models [PDF]
Sigma models arise frequently in particle physics and condensed-matter physics as low-energy effective theories. In this paper I compute the exact free energy at any temperature in two hierarchies of integrable sigma models in two dimensions.

Nonlinear Grassmann Sigma Models in Any Dimension and An Infinite Number of Conserved Currents [PDF]
We first consider nonlinear Grassmann sigma models in any dimension and next construct their submodels. For these models we construct an infinite number of nontrivial conserved currents.

Non-local non-linear sigma models
We study non-local non-linear sigma models in arbitrary dimension, focusing on the scale invariant limit in which the scalar fields naturally have scaling dimension zero, so that the free propagator is logarithmic.

A Novel Symmetry in Sigma Models [PDF]
A class of non-linear sigma models possessing a new symmetry is identified. The same symmetry is also present in Chern-Simons theories. This hints at a possible topological origin for this class of sigma models.

GAUGED HETEROTIC SIGMA-MODELS [PDF]
The gauging of isometries in general sigma-models which include fermionic terms which represent the interaction of strings with background Yang-Mills fields is considered. Gauging is possible only if certain obstructions are absent. The quantum gauge anomaly is discussed, and then the (1, 0) supersymmetric generalization of the gauge action given.
